We tried a few places but nothing compared to the warmth and talent of the awesome teachers and company coaches of Studio650 (formerly CDBN). Six years later, I would never change our decision and my girls are thriving and happy on their company teams and have made the best friends. Most of all, we feel blessed that the girls have so many teammates to look up to and who look out for one another. The team and parent-coach camaraderie is amazing. A true gem in the cut-throat Menlo Park/Palo Alto area.

Before coming to this dance studio, my daughter (4Y) had changed two studios. Either they were too…read morestrict or too lenient, and she seemed to have no interest in dancing at all. It wasn't until we switched to The Dance Studio that we found the right balance between strictness and flexibility, which ignited my daughter's desire to learn ballet. We even increased the classes from once a week to twice a week. Mrs. Debby and Ms. Chin have been dedicated teachers who inspire the children to work hard and leading the children from the beginning to success, step by step, towards their goals. I would like to express my heartfelt appreciation to Mrs. Debby and Ms. Chin for their understanding and accommodation of parents' requests all the time. Their support has allowed children who are passionate about dancing to fully enjoy the joy of dancing.

Pros: - Class filming is professional and very quickly published - AMAZING sales on class point bundles! I snagged one during their Black Friday sale and a single class came out to ~$16. Beats any other studio in the area. - Incredible pop-up/master classes. I don't know how they have the connections they do but they get some really big names (Sean Lew, Bada Lee, Kiel Tutin) Cons: - Some weekly teachers do not have the training to be teaching (esp jazz funk). Feels more like they are dancing for themselves to get a good video on their social media. See below for instructors I LOVE and would recommend. - Website can be buggy; I've had friends who were charged for points that did not show up in their account. Thankfully, the studio is decently responsive over Instagram but definitely keep an eye on your account/credit card when purchasing points. Instructors I highly recommend: Brittany (Beg Plus Jazz Funk) - soo much experience as a former NBA/IFL professional dancer! Brittany always brings great energy and really gets to know the dancers in her class. Her choreography is more on the beg/int side, so a good challenge for anyone new to dance. Musicality is always on point! Nate S. (Beginner Choreography/Foundations Camp) - THE best intro class for those just starting out! Nate is highly encouraging and his class is definitely a judgement-free zone. I've been dancing for nearly a decade and I still attend his foundation classes because he breaks things down so well. Also love that he teaches hip hop terminology!

I have tried the Thursday Beginner Ballet and Strength and Stretch classes here. Both are taught by…read moreMacKenzie and she is incredibly patient, kind, and sweet! I do think the Beginner Ballet sessions are on the short side (they are only 45 mins) and as a result are better suited for people looking to refine their technique than complete beginners who need to build foundations. Strength and Stretch is also probably best suited to experienced dancers, as the class has students doing crunches for consecutive minutes with no breaks and going into straddles, side splits, and advanced yoga poses with very little preparation and no modifications (this class is also only 45 mins, so warm up and cool down are quite brief). I would rate my experience as a novice to dance as 3 stars, but more experienced dancers may get more benefit from these particular classes, and it seems the ballroom classes are much more popular and well reviewed. This is a convenient location right off Foothill Expressway with ample parking in the back. There are classes in other dance styles (especially ballroom) almost every day of the week, so I may try those another time.

*Rediscovering Myself Through Dance: A Journey for New Moms*…read more As a child, I found joy in Bharatnatyam and Hindustani classical vocals, with performance feeling like second nature. But as a new mother, I realized how much I missed that creative outlet--something just for me. Stepping into Dance Identity in Sunnyvale reignited that passion. It's not just about learning new dance styles; it's about reconnecting with myself, embracing movement as an expression of joy, and finding a supportive community along the way. Some of my fellow dancers have become dear friends, making this journey even more rewarding. To all the new moms (and anyone else seeking to be part of a community while learning to dance) out there looking for an energizing escape, a space to move, express, and connect--come dance with us. You deserve this!

We are not long with the dance center but after watching the recital, I am really happy with them…read more We discovered this dance center during COVID pandemic where the kid has more time after school and it's nearby where we live. We joined midway of the school year around March. Being a total newbie, I emailed the dance center and got a really detailed explanation and some videos for me to decide what level I should sign my kid up for. They had classes outdoor in person as well as online. During the program, Leann, the center manager is always helpful to my questions. Turns out she's one of the great dance teacher too! The dance recital was in June and it was held in the park nearby. I like this setting for kids because the kids can watch all other dance performance and be exposed to a various kinds of dances. The teachers are very accommodating for the little ones. There's a little one crying before getting on the stage and the teacher picked her up and danced the whole song on stage with the kiddo in her arms! They have performance teams going for competitions and you can see the skills are a bit better than the regular classes. I would say the focus of this center is not to get winning is so many competitions, but more on getting the kids to enjoy dancing and get them moving. My kid joined a hip hop class with Veksler when she was 5 and she wasn't into it as it was much more focused on the performance. Now that she's older and we let her try Jazz and she likes it much better, so I'm happy of the result.
