I used to really enjoy going to this place... Took pole dancing classes here for over a year…read more Advanced level was super hard but fulfilling. Sad that I don't see them in their original location when I drive-by. Heard they relocated but have not seen it. Best of luck!

This place is super fun. I recently signed up for a beginners belly dancing class (at the constant…read moreencouragement of a friend) and I am really enjoying the experience. Michelle, the owner and instructor, is friendly, fun and encouraging, and she makes the experience very accessible. While you can 'drop in' to classes, I recommend signing up for a session to see what it's about and really get the most for your money. I am not able to actually attend all the classes in the session due to work travel, so I worked it out with Michelle to just pay for the sessions I can attend at the per-session pricing. So far I have not been disappointed. Each class starts with a short warm up, followed by repetitive dance moves. We seem to focus on one or two moves that we do over and over with different music and in different combinations. Each class is different. There is work with the veil, so we get an arm and upper back workout, and there is always a part at the end which is sort of 'watch and follow', where Michelle strings together everything we learned into what feels like a choreographed dance. And Michelle also always leaves a few minutes at the end for questions. The variety of ladies in the class ranges from young (20s) to mature (60s or older), with every race and size represented. We all have a great time in an atmosphere that is fun and not at all judge-y. I love the music and the fact that Michelle provides all the props, like the skirts with jingly coins and veils. The only thing to note is that the parking lot is small and since there are many classes running at the same time (between Nu Mvmnt yoga studio and Writers and Books which share the lot), it might be hard to find a spot. There is street parking in the front of the building on University and the back on Atlantic, as well as on the side.

Marina is a world famous dance instructor who takes time between teaching professionals for us, the…read morebrand spanking new dancers of the world. We'd often have lessons sandwiched by impressive groups and couples training for competitions but for our hour we had 100% of her attention. When we first came she listened to our song ( which was a classical piece) and said, "I like it. I am thinking a waltz. " Like I said, we had no experience and at this point and were worried we wouldn't be able to pull this off... But fast forward a few months and we are gliding around like swans, with a few hiccups, but we are nearly there. We watch the video on our phone from recent lessons and its almost unrecognizable. She expects you to practice, so you are not wasting your time or hers. She is a practical eastern European dance teacher classically trained. She gives helpful feedback throughout the process and creates the dance based on the music and couple's ability. We went ahead and opted for additional classes after the initial pack and at this point we are doing lifts, dips and things we could only dream of - again- we could not even slow dance without a panic attack. I am eternally grateful to Mariana for giving us this life skill. My fiancé said to me the other day, "Any house we move into needs to have enough space for us to do the dance." I love that our dance is a measurement we will use for any new home we have going forward. Highly recommended!

You will walk into a lobby? with chairs and tables that leads into a hallway and then the large dance studio appears :) Excellent instructors! Excellent classes! Would highly recommend to check out the studio.

I love ballet. I love how in Rochester there are so many opportunities to experience the arts,…read moreincluding dance and music. I saw the most recent production of The Nutcracker with the RCB, and as always, I was blown away by the intricacy of the choreography and the thought that was put into every detail, from the costumes, to the set, to the lighting. This year, I noticed some changes to the choreography that I really loved--they are always striving to improve and find new methods of storytelling! This year, in addition to the performances at Eastman Theatre with the Rochester Philharmonic Orchestra, there were also performances held at Canandaigua Academy. I very much appreciated that because the tickets were at a much lower price point, which allowed me to be able to enjoy the performance, and I'm sure many other people who wouldn't have necessarily been able to attend the pricier performances at Eastman. I'm so glad that Rochester has such a thriving professional dance community, and I can't wait to see where it goes next!
