Our experience at other studios were, some kids took it seriously and some didn't. My daughter grew so much as a dancer at Variant Movement, training with Dani the owner. My daughter wanted to push herself and train to better herself and her teams. Her mentality shifted and watching her progress was amazing. Dani is so good at fine tuning and her choreography is exciting and showcases the kids strengths. She really cares and it shows. She auditioned and made a dance team and that had everything to do with Dani and her amazing team. My daughter felt so proud performing and representing VM and will forever be grateful for Dani.

We signed our daughter up at 18months old for the "twirl with me" class. It's been about a month and has been so fun to watch her slowly learn how to listen, follow instructions, pick up on routines, and associate with the other little dancers. The class is structured so well. The perfect balance between instruction while making it comfortable and fun. Ms Kylie is an excellent teacher! Would absolutely recommend to anyone looking to get their little ones involved!

My husband and I came to them to prepare for our wedding reception dance- they helped us put together a routine that blew our family out of the water (we had no idea what we were doing when we started).

The wedding is over &we're already getting another package of lessons for other types of dancing. I can't thank them enough for their help and I look forward to learning more from them at the studio. If you're looking for dance lessons, look no further than Bumpin Ballroom!

Nancy, the class owner/instructor is a very beloved Jazzercise professional! She is funny, friendly, compassionate and gives a great workout! The routines and music are fresh and new. There are morning AND evening classes, each with their own perks. I have attended here with pleasure since 2000. Whether you want to get fit or stay fit, Jazzercise works! Michelle, Marissa and Lauren are also great instructors that hold classes there. Try them out if you want a little less of a crowd. Michelle W. teaches a particularly high energy, high calorie burn class! Just a couple of teensy notes though. Nancy is such a great, popular and beloved instructor, this Jazzercise is somewhat a victim of its own success. Nancy's classes are frequently crowded, but you'll find friendly accommodating Jazzercisers that will scoot one way or another to make room. The parking can get sticky in the summer with all the ocean activities at the harbor. Jazzercise when done with some effort and good form is an EXCELLENT WORKOUT--Cardio, weights and stretching in an hour! Less expensive and just as effective as joining and going to a gym or even a dance class. There are also a few other new class formats that are really good besides "Dance Mixx." Go to those if you can. They are fun and challenging and mix things up fitness wise. You may want to get the free useful Jazzercise app. There are classes everywhere! I go to Jazzercise when visiting other cities. That's always an eye opener! Nonetheless, despite the small local annoyances, I might walk into class a bit salty, but I always emerge with that balanced glowing energy feeling that lasts all day! Jazzercise is legit fitness and fun! Especially at Dana Point Harbor!
