This review is long overdue due to my schedule. I wanted to thank Jan for an amazing lesson with me and my parents. We had an amazing experience. We not only learnt hula dancing, but we learnt how to make Lea, ti leaf dress and hair accessory. I definitely recommend Jan for anyone who is going to Maui you definitely won't be disappointed. It's an amazing hands on experience :).

My sister, niece and I visited Jan in Lahaina, Maui Hawaii for spring break 2022. Jan was awesome. We learned how to make these lei's and took a hula class. Jan is a great teacher and has a kind giving spirit. I will be going back with grand daughter and daughter-in-law.

Mahalo Kumu Jan!!

My sister and I had a great experience with Kumu Jan. We agreed to meet at Kahekili Beach Park around sunset. She showed us an easy hula and shared various instruments used in the dance. Well worth the effort to make it happen. Mahalo for the Aloha spirit!!!

Amazing memorable experience! We loved making the lei necklaces and lei headband with Jan. Her flowers were freshly picked and she was so patient in teaching us throughout. We did the hula class after making the lei's. Jan was flexible in scheduling and we're so grateful to have experienced this with our family. Thank you Jan!

We love Jan!

Jan is the kindest, most patient person and is so easy to work with. I was looking for lei making and a hula lesson for our family when we were in Maui over the summer. I researched through multiple websites and finally found Jan through Yelp. She met us at a beach close to where we were staying and brought so many beautiful flowers and all the materials needed for making leis. She told us stories and traditions as she taught us to make leis. Then she gave us hula dresses and taught us a dance, explaining what each part meant. My teenaged nieces were not too thrilled that I planned a hula lesson and lei making adventure but they fell in love with Jan and said it was the highlight of our trip! I cannot recommend her enough!! She is wonderful!

The best experience in Maui. One that my daughter can't stop talking about! By far the highlight of our trip. It was such a great experience and Jan was so welcoming and made it a memory of a lifetime! Would highly recommend!

Fresh flowers from her garden woven together to make this beauty

Jan is a delightful soul. My aunt and I had the best time making leis with her while admiring the georgous view from her lanai. Her friendly and welcoming demeanor immediately put us at ease as she explained how to make various adornments with the flowers she grows in her yard. Jan is a very patient teacher and we laughed the whole time we were learning the hula. I can't wait to see her again for another lesson the next time we visit Maui. Jan is wonderful so be sure to book a lesson with her!

Beautiful quality flowers from her garden

Super nice, we had a great time learning a hula dance for me and my girlfriend, and learning the meaning behind each move!

Now 10 1/2 years old my daughter has followed my nieces footsteps. My girlfriend is ending her time with Hype and We are only buckling up and getting ready for the ride! Because of the dedication, training and support of the all choreographers, Hypersquad parents, family and friends my daughter is now out of her shell and on Competition team! I am proud to say that Hypersquad is not just a dance studio it's family!

Mariah will be in France for the summer but will return to the studio in August. =)…read more I still cant believe she used to cry at the first few Saturday classes she went to 3 years ago. Mariah (now 7) had such an amazing time at concert and already told me she wants to be in every single number next year LOL. I wanted to say THANK YOU from the bottom of our hearts for everyone at the studio doing what you do for all of the students. I will definitely volunteer in the dressing room again next year and I will have a better idea of the flow. The concert was amazing as always and well worth it in my family's opinion. We look forward to many more concerts in the future. I noticed this year it was a hard to see the "little ones" perform because they were often behind much taller students or far off to the side. That is the one thing I noticed that could be improved on for next year but not a big deal as hopefully we will have the girls taking more classes next year allowing them to be in more numbers. Thanks again for everything, you are ALL very much appreciated! -Christina & Mariah

I never thought I'd be taking salsa, I've never done any dance before and feel (felt) like I had 2 left feet, pair that with a naturally introverted personality and going to my first class was nerve wracking to say the least. About 6-7 months ago from writing this I was going thru a tough time and needed a change. One of those changes was signing up at PLD. I felt so nervous, out of place, and intimidated at first (at no fault of theirs) that I almost quit after a couple classes. But one of my fellow classmates told me after my 2nd or 3rd class that I was already much better, and I decided to stick it out. Now it's my favorite part of the week and I go to as many classes as I can make it to. Give it a try, if you enjoy it at all I highly highly highly recommend getting actual dance shoes, they make it much smoother and easier to do the moves compared to sneakers or similar. If it seems difficult at first, remember nothing worth doing is easy. Stick to it and in a few months you'll feel like a new person!

This is a great community to learn Latin dances. Studio is spacious and clean. The studio has…read morefloors mirrors and is Air conditioned. The dance instructors are super friendly, they break down the steps clearly and they make the classes fun. My daughter is taking her for Salsa classes here. The style is dancing onto. She's only been dancing for a couple days. I am so proud of the progress. I'm looking forward to trying some classes myself when I'm able to dance again. The studio also has a large gym with gym equipment. This hidden gym is located in Waipahu.
