I only write well deserved reviews, and I can honestly say that this studio is by far the best we…read morehave attended so far. The owners and the staff are amazing with the kids it really looks like they care about them genuinely and about their growth as dancers. I absolutely love everything about it and highly highly recommend if you want a good school with great dance teachers who care along with a budget friendly class. Then that is it. They also have classes for adults such as flexibility and stretching and all kinds of other classes they are great you should check out their website and there's class schedule. Kim & Robert are both wonderful individuals and dancers teachers etc.

Love this studio! Been going for about a year ish now. I used to go to studios on Melrose & Ventura…read moreexclusively but wanted something closer to the west side and this has been the perfect spot! Truly one of the most welcoming studios I've ever been to as well - it's the fastest I've made new dance friends at a studio before and the staff is so nice. They film the end of every class which is great, and sometimes they'll even bring in professional videographers for certain classes or pop ups. I typically go to Jingle's jazz funk and heels classes but have branched out recently to Kpop and other instructors and have always had a good experience.

My first time at this dance studio and it was a good experience! I came for a 6pm Kpop class taught…read moreby Ria on a Monday. I signed up online via a link from their Instagram and the website was pretty user friendly and I was able to get registered for the class I wanted. No sweat. Looking for parking can be tough as it's street parking only, so I came a bit early to ensure I was able to get a spot. Walking in, the interior was pretty cozy and it was smaller compared to other studios I've been to in LA, but not a bad thing at all! The person working the front greeted me and I told her it was my first time so she gave me a rundown of how the studio works. I appreciate the great customer service! They have a full front mirror, cubbies to store your belongings, a clean bathroom, and an ipad up front to sign in. The class was comfortable since there were people of different dance levels so it's not intimidating. I also liked that it wasn't crowded. The classes usually last for 1 hour and 30 min. I would definitely take a class here again in the future.

This review is specifically for our amazing instructor, Sindy. From the moment we met her for our…read morefirst wedding dance lesson, she made us feel completely at ease. She came up with our routine on the spot and tailored it perfectly to our vibe and skill level. Her teaching style is clear, encouraging, and so supportive - even through all our mistakes, she was patient and upbeat. Sindy has years of experience, and it shows in the way she breaks down each move and makes the whole process enjoyable. Thanks to her, our first dance turned out so graceful and smooth - and it was to a fun, upbeat song that she helped us bring to life beautifully. It felt like us, and we got so many compliments. We couldn't have asked for a better instructor. Sindy is truly the best - kind, professional, and completely dedicated to helping her couples shine. We're so grateful for her and would absolutely recommend her to anyone wanting to feel confident and look great on the dance floor.

Not only did she choreograph the perfect wedding first dance, she also choreographed a high energy, super fun father/daughter dance for us. She even taught a few simple moves for the mother/groom dance to make everything look special but natural. We cannot recommend Laura enough and are grateful for making the process so seamless!

Diaz Studio of Dance is truly something special. Our daughter has been dancing at Diaz since she…read morewas 4, and watching her grow within this community has been a gift. The Diaz sisters are an incredible team. They are professional, warm, and deeply committed. They manage to know every child's name almost immediately and have such a natural ability to make kids feel comfortable, safe and welcomed from the moment they walk through the door. You can feel how much they care about their dancers. Our daughter has thrived under their direction. She has developed so much as a dancer, but more importantly, she has developed a genuine love for dance and a confidence that extends far beyond the studio. I highly recommend Diaz Studio of Dance. Whether you or your child are brand new to dance or have been dancing for years, this is a wonderful community to be part of.

I don't recommend this place to any parent that has multiple children!!! I have enroll my daughter…read moreto Diaz studio of dance, for the Ballet/Tap class 4 to 5 years old. As any parent knows, sometime things happen, and my daughter got a cold, so off course I didn't took her to attend her class. However, when I email to try to schedule a MAKE UP CLASS, they said it the only availability was the Saturday class at 9am and parent participation on that class was mandatory!! I didn't understand why I had to participate on that class since I don't have to participate on the classes that she actually takes it, Also I tried to explain that I have a 14 month old boy and would be impossible for me to do any participation at that class since I have to watch my son as well!! Later I found it, that the makeup class they were offering was a toddler class, Ballet/Tap 2 to 3 years old. WHAT A JOKE!!! My daughter is 5 going on almost 6 years old, and they want her to dance with 2 years old???? Also they want to obligate me to participate in the class? they want to make me pay for my 14 month old BOY, to do ballet-Tap dance on that day so my daughter could do the class which was not at all the class that I have paid the tuition for!!! Let me give you an example, if you miss a math class on 6 grade but the school offer you a make up class math from third grade??? Is that make sense??? Get my point ? Well they didn't !!!! when I called and tried to explain this, the UNPROFESSIONAL EMPLOYEE from this facility was extremely rude, didn't even let me talk, and hang up the phone on my face!!!! FOR WHAT??? So I kept calling, and they completely tried to reverse the whole situation, saying that I was the rude one and that the made a decision to cancel my daughter our contract ( which I'm glad!!!! ) but it wasn't fair, first because how I CAN BE RUDE, IF YOUR EMPLOYEE DIDNT EVEN LET ME EXPLAIN WHAT I WAS TRYING TO SAY!???? instead she just kept yelling on the phone, shutting me off and just repeating THIS IS THE "POLICY" !!! Literally not letting me talk at all, and like a child having a tantrum she choose to hang up the phone on my face!!!! I was chocked!!!! An hour later they wrote that I "violate their POLICY," and I was treating their employee what A LIE!!!! The Main reason why I'm writing this review is to ALLERT any person that is thinking of signing up they children to this facility, they wrote on they their email the stand up for their employees . Well I STAND UP FOR PARENTS, like me that don't deserve to be treated this way and don't want my child to be surround of this kind of people that works on your studio!!! ATTENTION PARENTS: BE CAUTIOUS BEFORE SIGNING YOUR CHILD HERE FOR CLASSES, keep in mind , if your kid gets a cold and you keep your child home to prevent others from getting sick, when you tried to get the make up class they will offer you a "BABY CLASS" regardless your child age and if you complain they will treat you like trash!!! LOS ANGELES IS FULL OF GREAT DANCE STUDIOS with nice, kind people !! Some things happens for a reason and the only positive out of all of this is that my FAMILY WONT BE NEAR THIS PLACE EVER again!!! Do yourself a favor and research their POLICY THAT ONLY BENEFIT THEMSELVES BEFORE WAISTING YOUR TIME AND MONEY!!!!

I had a relatively good time taking a cardio dance class here! I visited this fitness studio on a…read moreSaturday morning and it was packed! Walking-in, the music was loudly playing and the interior had a party type of vibe. Thankfully there were ear plugs available for purchase. Checking-in was a bit difficult since it was hard for me to hear the receptionist due to the loud music. She was also wasn't the most friendly or welcoming which didn't make me feel great. I also needed to use the bathroom and her directions weren't very clear, so I had to ask her where to locate it a couple of times. I ended up using the bathroom at a nearby spa which I'm not sure if that's the bathroom she was referring to. There were lots of cubbies to store my stuff before taking the class which was nice. The age demographic of the participants was on the higher side, but everyone seemed so energetic. The instructor was also fun and lively. I liked her hip-hop style choreography which was full of energy and grooves. I was impressed that she was able to dance with so much energy for an hour straight. I overall enjoyed the music selection and choreography of the class. Overall, a decent experience here. Since it was my first time, I was able to get into this class for $15. Otherwise it would be $30 which I think is a bit pricey compared to regular dance classes in LA that go for 1 hour and 30 minutes for around $20. However, I do recognize this could be the standard for these types of classes. I wouldn't go out of my way to do this again, but would be possibly down if someone invited me. More of a preference, but I would feel more comfortable taking classes like these with people closer to my age demographic.

Words cannot express my love for DC Dance, Ms. Diane and all her wonderful teachers. We have been…read moreat DC Dance for about 8 years and love it! My daughter started by taking a couple of classes and is now a company member. The love and appreciation of dance is at the heart of every class and in every instructor. A wonderful supportive staff and the girls who attend couldn't be lovelier. Along with the discipline of dance the girls are taught a focus that applies to all areas of their life. Dc Dance is my daughters safe haven when other areas of life get hectic. Everyone at DC makes her feel less bed, accepted and welcome at all times. If you are trying to choose a dance studio look no further than DC Dance and Diane Collins.

I came here to participate in Elina's Elina's intuitive painting experience…read more It was truly magical! From the moment I arrived, I felt welcomed and at ease. She created an intimate, calming atmosphere that began with a guided meditation, setting the perfect tone for the evening. The small class size made it personal and comfortable, allowing everyone to dive right into the creative process without pressure or judgment. Elina's warm, kind energy as a host made the experience exceptional. Surrounded by blankets and pillows, we could disconnect from the outside world and fully immerse ourselves in painting, which felt like a therapeutic journey. The soft music and Elina's gentle guidance added to the ambiance, making it easy to express ourselves freely. At the end of the night, I took home my artwork and a beautiful bracelet she gifted us, making the experience even more special. I highly recommend this to anyone seeking a creative and soulful way to unwind and connect with their inner child! I booked it through Airbnb Experience, but I believe you can also book through her website: https://www.elinadanilova.com/workshops

His choreography was perfectly tailored to our song, venue and dance ability - and most importantly, to us as a couple. From the very first lesson, Zweli created such a welcoming, encouraging space that we genuinely looked forward to each weekly session. Not only is he an incredibly talented choreographer and teacher, but he's also a joy to know. He made the learning process feel fun, meaningful, and collaborative - always striking the perfect balance between building our confidence and gently challenging us with moves that felt exciting to conquer. It truly felt like the three of us were a team. One of the most special parts of the experience was discovering how much we enjoyed dancing together. What started as prep for our wedding turned into a new shared interest, and that's all thanks to Zweli's energy, enthusiasm and heart. We got so many compliments on our first dance - and we are forever grateful to Zweli for the amazing journey to get there. Zweli has our highest recommendation!

I have been social dancing for years, but really wanted to improve some specific things that I couldn't find from group classes. Receiving personalized teaching from Liz- to know where I could make adjustments, and how to practice it at home was so helpful. My dancing now not only looks better, but it feels better, and it increases safety! I HIGHLY recommend taking a private with Liz, you will notice a major difference in your ability immediately. She is kind and supportive but can still meet you right at your personal growth edge. We are so lucky to have her in LA. Absolutely amazing.

I absolutely love Lift Society. This gym has completely transformed my fitness journey. I started…read morein November 2024 and have been consistently training ever since. The trainers are incredibly knowledgeable and genuinely committed to fitness. I've learned proper form, improved my posture, and built strength I didn't know I had. When I first started lifting, I was wobbly and off-balance - like Bambi. Now, I feel confident and powerful. I've also gained a much better understanding of how important nutrition is. This is hands down the best gym I've ever been to, and I'm so glad I found it. Shout out to the trainer Alexis who has been so patient with me and cheered me on since day one. She's so motivational. She always has such a warm and positive spirit about her. I don't know how she does it with her super early morning classes lol She is truly a gem. Out of all trainers I have ever had she is the one that has inspired me the most to know that it's possible and I can do it. The proof is there! I've done DEXA scans along the way and I've continuously cut fat and gained muscle.

It's the first place where I've truly…read morefelt confident using a barbell, lifting heavy, and building real strength, especially in my legs and glutes with focused squat work. The small group training format makes a huge difference: the coaches genuinely care about your progress, and you feel like you're getting stronger together. Their approach is refreshingly balanced, no pressure to train every single day. They encourage consistency with a realistic 3x-a-week cadence that's sustainable and actually delivers results. One of the biggest standouts is their incredible nutritionist, Celia. She's knowledgeable, encouraging, and keeps things flexible and realistic, no rigid plans or extreme restrictions. Plus, because she's also a trainer at the gym, she understands the full picture of your training and can tailor her guidance accordingly. I've worked with several nutritionists in the past and Celia is by far the best. Lift Society even throws in the occasional social outing, which makes it feel more like a community than just a gym. It's honestly one of the hardest things to leave behind as I move from LA to Brooklyn.
