He's patient, dedicated, and makes sure every student understands the steps. What I also love is that he creates a fun, supportive atmosphere where everyone feels included and encouraged.

We've made a big leap in progress in just two months. He makes the classes a lot of fun and keeps them moving so you get the most out of each class. He also fosters a great group of students who are a blast to hang out with at latin social nights. We've had epic times out dancing!

Back when I was a USF grad student, I was on a search to take my first hip hop class. I was…read moreenamored with all the amazing hip hop dancers I was seeing in movies, on tv, and on the internet. I would drive to and call dance studio after dance studio, but they would either not offer adult classes or their adult hip hop classes were taught by contemporary or jazz dancers. It just wasn't what I was looking for. One day, one of these jazz dancers teaching the hip hop class told me about VYB and Demario Henry. Once I took my first class at VYB, I was disappointed in myself for not finding this place sooner! VYB is THE PLACE for adult dance classes in Tampa. They offer a variety of dance styles for beginner, intermediate, and advanced dancers with, in my opinion, some of the best dance teachers in the state of Florida. It's a welcoming community of fun-loving, good-hearted people with a passion for expression through movement (Voice Your Body)!

Love the adult beginner ballet classes and series! As someone who developed an interest in…read moredance/ballet as a an adult, its difficult to find a studio that offers ballet classes at a beginner level. The classes are casual (leotards and tights aren't required) but structured and challenging. Mallory and Maya are excellent teachers and will break down the movements as many times as necessary. Would definitely recommend ABASI for dancers of all levels.

Long story short if you want to actually learn how to dance salsa and learn the actual essential…read moredetails ans nuances necessary to lead and follow salsa don't go here. This place teaches you to dance in a way that pays almost no attention to the push and tension that is necessary to actually truly dance with a partner and what actually makes the dance feel fluid and natural. This honestly does not feel like a professional dance studio in any way. But rather just a side business for a restaurant.

Avery has been attending Nicole's Dance Center since she was 4 years old (almost two years now),…read moreand she's worked with Ms. Nicole and Ms. Katie. She has grown so much in her dance skills, but just as importantly, she truly enjoys going and has built a sense of "family" there. Ms. Nicole and Ms. Katie are very encouraging, but also direct and firm when corrections are needed, which really helps the girls continue improving their technique. They truly believe that if a child has a passion for dance, they deserve a chance to grow. The atmosphere is also incredibly positive- there's no "catty" behavior among the kids or parents, which makes it such a supportive and welcoming environment. Avery has taken both ballet/tap and ballet/jazz classes, and one thing I love is how supportive the environment is. The older dancers are always helping each other out and sharing tips and tricks, which makes such a positive difference. She really looks up to the older girls as role models. We're nearing the end of our first competition season, and it's been an amazing experience so far. Pricing is more affordable versus other studios in Tampa and given to you ahead of time so there's no surprises. Overall, we've had a great experience at Nicole's Dance Center, and I'm excited to keep watching my little one grow there.

One, hopefully, was to share with a significant other someday; to eliminate feeling inept like many guys do when they have the opportunity to dance whether it's a wedding, other celebration or just going out. I also needed it as physical therapy after two severe injuries to my spine and neural system. In approximately six months time, instruction has done all of this, and more. The instructors are excellent, they are patient, tolerant, courteous, and very professional. I am thankful for all they have done and continue to do for me.
