We wanted an unconventional first dance for our wedding, and they truly listened. Huge shoutout to our instructor, Lewis, for bringing our vision to life and helping us choreograph a dance that fits both my fiancé's and my personality perfectly. The whole process has been fun, easy, and so special. We can't wait to perform it on our special day.

Patricia, the owner, took the time to walk us through the membership options, and we ended up getting a package with 10 private lessons plus 9 months of free group classes to build our skills and try different styles. All of the instructors are incredibly welcoming and friendly, which made us feel comfortable right away. We're really enjoying our private lessons and are excited to start joining the group classes more. Thank you, Anne, and thank you La Vida Dance--we can't wait to keep dancing!

Our experience at other studios were, some kids took it seriously and some didn't. My daughter grew so much as a dancer at Variant Movement, training with Dani the owner. My daughter wanted to push herself and train to better herself and her teams. Her mentality shifted and watching her progress was amazing. Dani is so good at fine tuning and her choreography is exciting and showcases the kids strengths. She really cares and it shows. She auditioned and made a dance team and that had everything to do with Dani and her amazing team. My daughter felt so proud performing and representing VM and will forever be grateful for Dani.

Mrs Dani and the staff at Variant truly love their students as their own kids and give them their heart and soul! We unfortunately got orders to move to North Carolina recently and Mrs Dani made it possible for my kids to continue training with VM and made it possible to even compete duet and solo with them! She would get my daughter from the airport sometimes, and stay super late at night if needed to get in practices since in person training was limited (I mean like super late)! she literally will do anything for her students cause she truly loves them!! We love VM so much that we literally traveled from coast to coast to still get the training in with Variant Movement!

We were searching for the next level of training with emphasis on pre professionals preparing kids for the industry and then college dance. Dr. John Kwon's program to train dancers as athletes is unlike anything being offered anywhere. He gave each of our company girls an individual evaluation assessing their particular weakness and made individualized programs. Along with Marlene Hall's Therabar classes, the individualized athletic training seems a sure bet to take technical training far beyond years of traditional ballet class repetition. We absolutely love the Master Classes each week that keeps the fresh influx of ideas and choreography flowing. We were absolutely floored by the summer program where there were 60+ guest instructors all active in the industry and academic dance. We couldn't have gotten all that in any intensive anywhere even in LA. I thought my kid was just burning out on 20h/wk dance schedule but it turns out she was looking for a new level and for coaches that take her seriously as an athlete and an artist.
