My favorite studio on island…read more - there's actual parking stalls. YES. Inner city studios are known for having zero parking, but there are actually a few stalls in their lot + street parking + parking @ a nearby shopping center (shh.) - so many different classes for the keiki AND adults. That's right. I know some of y'all secretly want to appear on world of dance and you can fulfill those dreams here. Classes change around every season for the adult classes, but hip hop 1 and street femme on Tuesday nights + hip hop 2 and intro to hip hop on Wednesday nights are here to stay! - all of the instructors are personable! New studios can be intimidating; here's how to navigate this one: 1. The building is a two-story blue building next to Still and Moving Center. Enter through the right door that has a small Honolulu Dance Studio sign on it. 2. You'll see a narrow stairwell on your left. Walk up the stairwell, put your outside shoes on the shoe rack on the top, and slip your dance shoes on (yes, you need indoor shoes specifically for dance, whether that's ballet slippers, jazz shoes, indoor hip hop shoes). 3. Walk over to the registration table on the left and fill out a clipboard to get yourself/your child registered + pay. 4. Wait until the dance instructor calls you in, put your water + belongings on the inner racks, and have FUN! Hope to see you in class!

I'm being charged for a ballet class I'm not taking, and nobody is doing anything about it…read more I'm a teen who's taking Hip Hop 1&2, strictly only those classes. Recently, I've noticed that on my account activity, I've been attending a ballet class. I don't attend those classes, and I've been very careful of not entering a class that wasn't my respective class. I asked someone about this and they told me there was a girl in the ballet class that had the same name as me and they would fix it. Fine. Next day, I see it again, I'm being charged for a ballet class. I'm fuming at this point. I call, they say again, it'll be fixed. It doesn't. Nothing I do is getting this issue fixed and I'm sick of having to call everyday because they're not checking the email of who is checking in. I doubt she has the same email as me, and if I have to keep going through this then I don't think I'll be staying at the studio.

I signed my daughter and niece up for The Vibe's TikTok class and my son for the Hip-Hop class…read more The kids enjoyed the classes so much that they were asking in the middle of the week if they could return for a second class before their next scheduled one! I was able to watch the last few minutes of class to see what the kids learned during their session and I was taken aback at how the instructors managed the little kids, especially the younger ones like my son who is 4! They were so patient with him and you can tell they're there because they love doing what they do-teaching the next generation of kids! Unfortunately, another lockdown happened so they were not able to go to another class. I was completely impressed with the protocols that they had in place when they opened up. They had staff outside collecting papers as parents drove up to drop off their child, someone was taking the kids' temperatures in the meantime and as you walk up, you have to clean/sanitize your footwear and hands. The studio was hip, clean and inviting. So happy we found this spot in the most convenient area in Kaimuki with ample parking! Can't wait for them to open back up again soon!

The choreography was good i thought, but the sound system has a horrible screeching type of sound output and the music being way over loud doesn't make the experience enjoyable. I paid the drop-in fee of $10, but was given back $5 and was told i'd be staying only 20 minutes, but did not really understand why. The owner was ok but not very welcoming. The instructors appear to be in their 20s. They are nice and energetic. This dance establishment is definitely geared more towards younger people. Overall I didn't feel comfortable going there.

Here was my experience on a Monday evening (8:30-10). AMBIANCE: Surroundings - Not the most touristy part of Honolulu but it's across a pretty nice apartment complex regardless be cautious. The studio itself is on the second floor. Pretty spacious that's decked out with a mirror and space for about 15-20 people. I got lost at first but after hearing music bumping, I knew I was in the right area. They got mirrors to check yourself. Parking - There's street parking or a parking lot right next door. Customer Service - The open session was pretty fun. I enjoyed the beats and the company. Marc was the main person in charge and he was pretty helpful. TL;DR OVERALL 5 Stars. Dancing is always hard, regardless if you're a beginner or not. It can be difficult from mastering a move to creating your art, but what helps if you're in a supportive environment and these are one of those spaces. I encourage people of all ages to check this place out. Advice: * Bring water * Don't be afraid to ask for help.

My entire shirt was soaked and sweat was dripping off my hair. I was really worried about being intimidated and just too slow to hang with the class but the instructor was really awesome about watching out for newbies like me, taking the time to call out more complicated moves and generally being really encouraging. And the other students/instructors were really encouraging too, high fiving me when completing something particularly challenging. The energy of this class is nice and high while being warm and inviting too. Parking is free, and there is tons of it. This class only happens once a month in this location, and it is totally worth it!

Aloha Dancesport has been much more than a dance studio for me--it has been a place of friendship,…read morefun, and beautiful memories over the years. Whether you're interested in salsa, bachata, waltz, foxtrot, or other ballroom dances, there are classes, parties, and social dances for almost every occasion and every level of dancer. The instructors are knowledgeable, welcoming, and passionate about helping students improve while having fun. The dance floor brings people together, but it's the friendships and sense of community that keep us coming back. I've met so many wonderful people here and shared countless laughs and unforgettable moments. The prices are comparable to other dance studios in Honolulu, and the value goes far beyond the lessons themselves. If you're looking for a place to learn, stay active, meet great people, and enjoy the joy of dancing, I highly recommend Aloha Dancesport.

The Barefoot Ballroom is upstairs, and as the name suggests, this is a shoes off facility. The lobby downstairs is welcoming and has two restrooms, along with another room used for classes. The upstairs Barefoot Ballroom is where I took both of my class types. I was a little curious about the ceiling height for aerial yoga since it is a regular height ceiling rather than a tall studio, but it ended up not being an issue at all for the class. Everything was set up well and we had plenty of room to move. I also love that they offer virtual classes, so you can even take hula classes from home . That is such a fun option if you want to learn something Hawaiian while you are away from the islands. Overall, a welcoming studio with great instructors and a nice variety of classes. I would definitely take another class here if I am back in Honolulu.

Join Kim's Heels Class Hawaii at the Aloha Dancesports Center! I've been going to her heels dance classes since 2018 and her classes are always so encouraging and fun! Before pandemic, I use to attend her beg/int heels, beg jazz, beg hip hop, and neo burlesque classes. Now during pandemic 2021, Kim only offers beginner hip hop class, beginner R&B, intro heels, beginner heels, and intermediate heels for now. You can follow her pages on Instagram @heelsclasshawaii @beghiphophawaii for the latest updates and class videos. These classes are for adults in all different levels of dancing, from no experience to with expert experience! Parking is located in front of the Ohana Hale Market Place, only an 1 minute walk across from the studio. The door is located behind the building and it will say Aloha DanceSport Center, right next to this pet food store called 'Naturally pet'. I went inside one time and was greeted by at least 5 dogs and 2 cats (great customer service haha) I think I was talking to the store owner and said he owns like 12 dogs in there. How the class process goes is that you first message Kim through her Instagram pages to reserve a spot of the class you want, once Kim approves then you can send payment. When class day comes, you come in and stretch on your own then she will begin class and start breaking down the choreography step by step. DONT FORGET TO BRING YOUR WATER AND KNEE PADS (for heels class)! Also a sweat towel because it can get hot too haha. Note: Im a VERY slow learner but with the help of Kim breaking down and repeating the choreo over and over. It helps build your muscle memory faster throughout the hour! I hope to see you guys in class and don't be shy to say hi to me! (If you're planning to take Heels class on a regular, invest on buying Burju shoes! The heels are made for dancing and are great ankle supporters! Use the class coupon code: Heels Class Hawaii)
