We are so glad that we picked Yoko's studio for my daughter to do her ballet. The staff and…read moreteachers are very friendly and very supportive. Big shout out to MS KAREN! Omg she knows the name of every student that comes and goes in this place. She is very friendly and always has a smile on her face when we come here. My daughter always thought about her when we go on traveling and always bring her goodies back to Ms Karen. The place is full of trophies everywhere so you can tell that they always get a wins on every competition they go to. We always look forward on the dance recital for my daughter too. the staff never stop on helping the kids and always have a back up when the teacher call in sick. I have no complaint or issue here and will continue to bring my daughter for her ballet/tap dance..

If you want your daughter and/or son to learn new skills and achieve an elevated sense of self…read moreconfidence, then Yoko's Dance Studio/School is the perfect start on this journey. Twenty years ago our daughter started at Yoko's and the benefits from dance techniques, poise, athleticism, and interpersonal skills continue to this day. Yoko's two daughters continue the mastery of dance as evidenced by their dance troupe's stunning performance today (12/10/2023) of the Christmas Nut Cracker Suite at the Ohlone College Jackson Theater. No pictures of the actual performance (no pictures/video) allowed of the live performance but the pictures of the theater stage/curtain and their extensive array of exquisite Nut Crackers for sale. A must see event, especially if you are the proud parents of one or more of the dancers! Many thanks to the nice folks at Fletcher Jones Audi, Fremont for their sponsorship of this event!

My daughter is usually very shy, but Miss Mariah was somehow able to get my daughter out of her shell and be confident as ever while she's dancing! Miss Mariah is absolutely amazing at what she does, and she's a great combination of patient & loving, yet still has amazing structure with the girls. Very grateful that she ended up my daughter's dance teacher.

My daughter loved her previous class but was looking for some more structure which they publicize…read moreso we joined. Since joining things went downhill. We picked a specific class bcoz it was taught by Miss Amaya. One class into the year she left. The energy levels in the class tanked. And there was no communication about teacher change. Most other place have a makeup policy specially for toddlers. This place offers none unless they need to reschedule. We signed up for recital shows and it's just money drain with you paying for poorly fitting costumes to buying tickets even for performances. In a 45 min class they spend 5 mins over recital performance with no repeat in the same session so kids can pick up the steps.

Then came covid in 2020 and I stopped dancing entirely up until 2024 where I had to start over again and luckily I found Hermosura Dance Productions (HDP). I've been taking bachata classes at HDP for about 6-7 months now and I must say that Helen is a fantastic teacher! She focuses on building a strong foundation to make you a better dancer which other schools just don't teach which I wish I had engrained in me when I first started dancing. On top of the fundamentals, Helen teaches nice patterns that allow you to dance with people of different levels (as a leader, this has been great!). She also provides constructive feedback during class to help you improve your dancing as well as understand how it is danced (e.g. in bachata you are pushing the floor with your feet). I highly recommend going to HDP for classes or tailored lessons, depending on your needs. Helen teaches many styles of dance from salsa on 1 (and on 2), cumbia, bachata, and rueda. Even if you've never danced before, you will be welcomed to class as if you were a regular so don't be afraid to sign up for your first class!

After her first year, she decided to join the competition team -- and we never looked back! From Hip Hop to Jazz to Ballet, TruDance always stayed true to what dance is really about - strong technique, passion, creativity, community, and FUN.

I am not a student of Max Dance Company but I attended an dance fusion event organized by then. It…read morewas simply amazing and entertaining. A friend of mine was participating so I went to attend it. I thought I will check out her performance, meet her and will come back but I stayed there for the entire event. Their dance performances were soooo good. Overall 10-12 dance groups performed. Toddlers, kids, youth, and adults all were part of different groups. I was amazed that they could train toddlers as well. It is one tough job, I must say. Kids danced well and co-ordination was good. It was surely difficult to teach them as well. Dances by youth were great and it was apparent that they were their students from a long time. Dances by adults were good and most people in the group had never performed in their entire life. Now this is surely a motivation to learn to dance ;) There were 3 performances by their advance students and they were mind blowing. Their moves and performances were so mesmerizing that you will have no idea about your surroundings and time. I loved all of their performances and will surely join them in future. Their instructors work really hard and it shows in the performances. Great job Max Dance Company!!!

To my delight and amazement, Reshmi and Mahi, her company partner, squeezed us in on the incredibly short time crunch. We had 5 lessons and the entire process was fun, enjoyable and SO worth it. Mahi and Reshmi are patient, friendly, and their passion for dancing and helping people genuinely comes through in their lessons. They listened to us, made suggestions on different steps and always gave me and my fiancé constructive criticism. I was also blown away by the variety of dances Reshmi and Mahi are trained in: from salsa to Bhangra, western, formal, and waltz, they make everything look good! The end result at our wedding was fantastic and we got a ton of compliments! I truly don't think our first dance would be on the level that it was without Mahi and Reshmis help. We are so happy we went with your company and can't wait to see the videos of our first dance!!

The Positives that kept me re enrolling for 6 years: Staff: I always loved the staff especially the person who always helped fit my daughter dance shoes. They were friendly and always responded to questions. Location: Close and easier to find drop off in a safe neighborhood. The Costumes: For the Most part the costumes are beautiful and it even got better this past year end performance. The staff puts a lot of thought into this. Dance Teachers: kids friendly not strict at all (could be good or bad) The Venue:Santa Clara convention center is a great venue. Many other dance studios can't afford this size venue. Negatives: Repetitive program. You will hear the same songs after 2 years. Simple moves: If you are not in the comp team, you won't learn much after 2 yrs. My daughter said 3 years ago, she learned 3 new moves, 2 years ago she learned 1 new move. Last year she didn't learn ANY new moves. Now as I search for other dance studios, she's already behind for her age group for non comp classes. It's hard to continue paying increasing fees without seeing progress. All I wait for is one fancy year end show with beautiful costumes.... I hope they hire new dance teachers that can dance like their star comp team girls.

The way that Ms Ranjani trains and inspires her…read morestudents makes them not only amazing dancers but also helps them shape their personality by teaching them discipline, time management, leadership, commitment, determination, communication and more. Aerodance gave incredible opportunities to my daughter's dance team to perform internationally at the World Festival of Indian Dance at Athens Greece and also perform at the Diwali Festival at Orlando, Florida. Aerodance performs at many competitions and cultural events throughout the year across the bay area. This enables Aerodancers to learn about various dance forms from different parts of India exposing them to the rich Indian culture, learning about different traditional costumes. Ms Ranjani also inspires aerodancers to self choreograph and perform solo at various cultural events throughout the bay area making the students more confident about themselves. We highly recommend Aerodance!

Owner is rude, unappreciative and unprofessional to say the least. Doesn't have any idea what Customer Experience means. The whole conversation was very difficult permeated with rudeness. Snippet of Her text to me below. I was so excited to get my niece started on her Dance lessons that she is so eager to have for so long. I told my brother that I found a well rated dance school nearby. My Dad and brother got his daughter ready and this owner just killed all the excitement. Stay Away! "Aerodance is my buisness and I set the mode of payments,rules ,policies and parents follow accordingly." In response to owner's response as expected: The child was being brought in by her father. I was gifting dance lessons so I was simply paying for the class. As for Refusing business I made the decision to not use this woman's services since in my gut I felt very uneasy and uncomfortable leaving our child under this School's supervision in any capacity. If any one wants to see my communication with her I will be happy to share the truth. Look at her Yelp Reviews and you will see how others feel about her also. I hate to leave a negative comment but she is lying and unapologetic so I will keep my review up. ~Sighs~
