Madi has worked with multiple instructors and we appreciate each and every one of them. They each have unique way of working with the dancers and they are passionate about what they do.

They also offer weeks to tryout multiple styles of dance and get an opportunity to see what your kid likes! We have done Hip Hop and are currently in Acro Techniques and Musical Theatre.

She's changed from being a shy uncertain girl to a more confident girl. She gets so excited learning hip hop moves and learning a choreagraphed routine. Fast forward and now we're going to her first recital this weekend at a local theater. The teachers are helpful, encouraging and know how to work with other children's age levels and maturity. Parents are welcome to watch through zoom or peek through the door with glass. We look forward to more classes and seeing where her interests follow her. If you're looking for something for your child to look into, this may be the dance studio for them.

The first thing I worried about with enrolling my daughter in a ballet program was exposing her an unhealthy environment. I had - in the past - the displeasure of being around a large group of young dancers from a San Francisco ballet school. These kids were consistently rude and self-centered. Some even had developed eating issues. That is not what you will get here. The older girls are not only wonderful dancers, but they get to know the younger girls during the productions. This creates a wonderful community within the school. And there isn't a single waif among them. They are all healthy, athletic young ladies. My daughter is getting a chance to learn ballet, perform on stage, and build a healthy sense of self. I don't think I could ask for more.

    I have been dancing with this studio for a little over 2 years. It all started with my daughter who…read morehas always loved to dance. A friend from school told us about the school, so I brought my daughter in for a trial class. She loved it so much we signed her up right away. Not too long after, I noticed that a lot of the parents are very involved with the group. Some of them dance, others play instruments and some help with costumes and events. A couple of the moms invited me to take a class, but I remember trying Tahitian in high school and never quite picked it up. However, the whole culture at the studio is like a family. Knowing that I could bring my kids, I decided to try it out because I needed some form of exercise. Never did I imagine I would be two years in and still loving it. I went from just dancing as exercise to being able to perform in front of people, which I have always been scared to do. The best part of the studio is all the people from the owners/teachers to the families involved. There are no egos or people trying to outdo one another. Everyone is uplifting, supportive and helpful. And just like the name suggests, it is more than a studio, it is a cultural arts center. We are not just taught dances. We are taught the language, the meaning of the songs we dance and even how to make our own costumes. Plus, you are able to participate as much as you like. If you don't want to perform, you are not forced to do so. They even have special classes where they teach you how to play different instruments. There are even fitness classes like Zumba. Of course, right now due to COVID things are different, and extra precautions need to be taken, so we do not have gatherings like prior. However, I highly recommend this studio for anyone who loves the Tahitian culture or just loves to dance.

The growth we've seen in her, both as a dancer and as a person, has been absolutely incredible. The staff at Dreamspace is truly wonderful. They're welcoming, always smiling, and you can tell they genuinely care about each and every dancer. They are not only kind and supportive, but they push the dancers in all the right ways to help them reach their potential. On top of that, the spring and winter shows are absolutely amazing. You can see how much thought, creativity, and heart go into every detail- from the choreography and music to the costumes and overall production. My family and I always look forward to seeing what they'll come up with next, and we're blown away every single time. We've found more than just a dance studio.

I paid a deposit for one of my daughters to do summer camp and we were then unenrolled because I missed a payment even though I asked for it to be pushed. I just said forget it enrolled her in gymnastics and opted of the text notifications and left it alone. I then get an email stating I owe $275 for Summer camp. I called the studio only to find out my number was blocked ( my husband called and got threw and they actually never called him back). When I emailed the studio I was told my call probably didn't come through because I opted out of text notifications. Which has nothing to do with being to able to call the studio as far as I am concerned because my husband isn't opted in to receive texts and got through. I requested a refund for the deposit from summer camp, and for them to remove my daughter. They first denied my refund despite it not being stated anywhere that 1. You have to pay a deposit for summer camp and 2. it is non refundable. Now they have been ignoring my emails. I now just plan to take all the information I have gathered and dispute the charge with my bank. I hate I even have to post a review like this because as I stated my beginning experiences were pleasant and they started off very accommodating but this has left a really bad impression, and I hope they don't do this to anyone else.

It was a 3 week camp, 4 hours a day. In that short time, they produced a kids play...The Jungle Book...from start to finish, complete with singing, dancing, costumes and sets. It was amazing what they were able to accomplish. And the quality of that production was impressive...much higher than any of the other school plays or park district programs we have seen. Each day, the kids took "classes" in acting, singing, and dancing, but with plenty of time for play, games, and camp type activities. Renee, Rena, and Amy are very good with the kids. And the amount of care, creativity, and love that they put into their business really shows. The difference it made in our daughter, after just 3 weeks was amazing. She made new friends that she wants to keep in touch with. She is a little less shy than she used to be. And she sings and dances a lot more, even when she knows people are watching. I think it will be the highlight of her summer. And I think Lamorinda Theatre Academy's program will be a very good influence on her growth, poise, and confidence, and will be a lot of fun for her!
