I am deeply disappointed by the way my granddaughter was treated by this dance studio. Throughout…read morethe season, we were given information that ultimately proved to be untrue, and we were led to believe she would be included and treated fairly. Instead, she was excluded from the yearly summer recital and without honest communication or a satisfactory explanation. What makes this situation especially troubling is that the treatment she received appeared noticeably different from that of other students. As a family, we were left questioning whether bias played a role in the decisions that were made. While the studio may have its own explanation, the lack of transparency, fairness, and consistency raises serious concerns. Watching a child work hard, remain committed, and then be excluded was heartbreaking. No child should be made to feel less valued than their peers. Families deserve honesty, respect, and equal treatment, and unfortunately that was not our experience. I hope the studio takes a hard look at how it communicates with families and how it ensures that every child is treated fairly and inclusively. Based on our experience, I cannot recommend this studio.

The whole process has been fun, easy, and so special. We can't wait to perform it on our special day.

Patricia, the owner, took the time to walk us through the membership options, and we ended up getting a package with 10 private lessons plus 9 months of free group classes to build our skills and try different styles. All of the instructors are incredibly welcoming and friendly, which made us feel comfortable right away. We're really enjoying our private lessons and are excited to start joining the group classes more. Thank you, Anne, and thank you La Vida Dance--we can't wait to keep dancing!

From private lessons to group classes and practice parties, every aspect of the studio is designed to help you grow while having fun! When I first started, I knew absolutely nothing about ballroom dancing -- all I knew was that I'd loved it ever since watching the 1996 film Shall We Dance as a little girl. Now, I've learned so much, thanks to the amazing instructors (and I have SO much more to learn!). Every teacher I've worked with has been knowledgeable, patient, and encouraging, making the learning experience enjoyable and accessible. I feel so lucky to have found this studio right in my neighborhood. It's become my second home, and I'm excited to keep dancing and growing with such a fantastic community. Highly recommend to anyone, whether you're just starting out or looking to refine your skills!

We were searching for the next level of training with emphasis on pre professionals preparing kids for the industry and then college dance. Dr. John Kwon's program to train dancers as athletes is unlike anything being offered anywhere. He gave each of our company girls an individual evaluation assessing their particular weakness and made individualized programs. Along with Marlene Hall's Therabar classes, the individualized athletic training seems a sure bet to take technical training far beyond years of traditional ballet class repetition. We absolutely love the Master Classes each week that keeps the fresh influx of ideas and choreography flowing. We were absolutely floored by the summer program where there were 60+ guest instructors all active in the industry and academic dance. We couldn't have gotten all that in any intensive anywhere even in LA. I thought my kid was just burning out on 20h/wk dance schedule but it turns out she was looking for a new level and for coaches that take her seriously as an athlete and an artist.
