If you have been thinking about trying out Ballroom, book classes with them now. The instructors are incredible! Every single one of them and the environment is supportive and we are learning ALOT! There are students of all ages and abilities which I LOVE! The teachers know how to get the best out of you no matter what your ability. The people I have met through the studio are so wonderful. What I love most is that people leave their "baggage" at the door and come to have fun, reconnect, and activate that mind body connection. Everything about it is best in class!

I thought the class was a good pace and easy enough to follow (although, I've taken beginner salsa at another place before so I had some experience). It was my boyfriend's first time learning salsa and he thought the class was fun but I little too fast, so took off a star for that. Also, the class felt a little big.

When she started during the…read morelockdown, it was one of the few activities available that gave young people a positive outlet, helping them stay focused, build skills, and feel a sense of accomplishment. The studio truly went above and beyond, even creating an outdoor stage approved by the city so classes could continue safely. We are so grateful for that commitment. Since 2020, we've experienced a genuine sense of camaraderie and family every step of the way. The owners are incredibly dedicated, always ensuring that each child's experience is purposeful, supportive, and focused on growth. We also love the variety of dance styles offered and the quality of the instructors. They are truly exceptional. Their programs are of award-winning caliber, and the musical theater program is easily one of the best in the city.

*I hope Yelp won't delete my review, as they are known to delete bad reviews*…read more The owner tried to convince us that our child needed more than just one lesson per week (ideally 3x according to him) because they claimed to be a professional institution. So, I enrolled my daughter in two lessons per week. Instead of learning proper foundations or techniques, she would spend the first hour doing conditioning exercises, and during the second hour, the theater program kids would join the class. That second hour was mainly used to rehearse choreography for their theater productions. Your child would receive even less attention, especially during the weeks leading up to the opening of a show. I honestly felt scammed. On top of that, the main roles in their theater productions seem to be dominated by the theater director's siblings. In case you don't know, when auditioning for a theater company, the casting directors usually want to hear you sing first, once you pass the singing audition, they want to see how well you can dance and then evaluate your acting last. But that didn't seem to be the case with their theater program. This is why their theater program is not growing! The heart of musical theather is singing. At $400 per month and four months to complete the production, you can find a much more affordable and better production, and most importantly, a FAIR opportunity for every child. I took my daughter out of this school and enrolled her in a different one. I was surprised by how different the approach was at the new school compared to The Grand Academy of Ballet. Yes, parking is terrible!

Karma is an A-type personality who makes sure you get a lot out of the class, but she's also…read moreincredibly emotionally in tune, which is a rare and amazing mix. She makes sure you get the moves while also keeping the environment supportive, comfortable, and celebratory. I love when she gets so excited that she literally starts screaming because someone in class is going off. She celebrates people constantly, by name or even just noticing something they're rocking like, "Yes, GREEN JUMPSUIT!" Being the only guy in the class, I've never once felt isolated, judged, or uncomfortable about assumptions people might make about me. I've only ever felt celebrated. It was refreshing not having to navigate that in a public place. She encourages fluidity in whatever way feels right for you, whether it's super masc, super feminine, or somewhere in between. Her focus is helping you connect to your artistic dance spirit, and that's when you know you're doing it right. She also celebrates neurodiversity and really focuses on what the strengths are within that, while also helping people navigate certain challenges. Karma's class is more than just learning choreography. Watching her dance is witnessing powerful, raw, and inspiring artistry. When she demos, it honestly feels like a mini performance during class. Then when she dances with us right after, you feel like this epic backup dancer, and it inspires new moves and articulations within you. There's also a strong sense of community in Karma's class. She's built a culture where you not only bring self-love to the class, but appreciation and love for the people dancing alongside you. Someone might be doing a twerk, an offbeat wild move on their chair, or some epic crawl across the floor, and the whole class erupts with roaring encouragement. Karma encourages asking questions about the dance moves and routines. She absolutely loves them. But remember, she's an A-type personality, so be sure to raise your hand. ; ] She's also a motivational instructor because she's real. She doesn't say generic things. Sometimes she shares philosophies or lessons that helped her in life, and I've caught myself thinking, "How is this level of Impacting dialogue happening in a chair dance class?" It's a one-of-a-kind experience that involves a chair, saucy moves, and surprising moments of human-centered community, full of loving people hosted by the radiant Karma!

I also appreciated her focus on hip hop fundamentals like popping and waving as part of our warmup. While I enjoyed the class, I think it would have been intimidating if it was my first time setting foot in a dance studio. I would encourage the front desk employees to greet first time visitors and give them a brief rundown of the space, where to place your belongings, what to expect from class, etc. A lot of the people in the class seemed to know each other already which just shows you how popular these classes are. I hope to return soon!
