I haven't danced since I was a child (more than 10 years ago) and literally this dance class makes me want to keep on coming and question why I ever stopped dancing! If you have any questions, the staff is very quick to answer Facebook messages (which is what I prefer to use). I already recommended a friend, we both love it. It's for women and men, and it's just a ton of fun. If anyone wants to get back into dancing or just do something active instead of a gym membership, you gotta try this out. You'll literally never want to miss a class again. And it's super affordable! Love everything about this place

It has given me so much history about the art of capoeira and has helped me find so many friends. Mestre Gaivota, is incredibly knowledgeable in the art and he passes down what he knows to his students. He is attentive and is also funny to learn from and he always makes sure that you are included in the community. He is very supportive and only wants you to grow.

Briana was so kind and wonderful on the phone. I called on a Sunday and she pulled the potential sizes ahead of time. Originally, I was not going to bring my son.

Briana said no worries, she would stay in order for me to try the shoes on. WOW! By the time we found parking it was 12:05pm we scored a great spot a block away) and we called Briana to advise we were walking up now. She was so sweet; so personable and assured us that she would stay open for us to arrive. Turns out my son was a larger and wider size and Briana had just the size and width that we needed! She was absolutely lovely! We plan to enroll in a class because she is amazing and the school is wonderful too! Thank you Briana for your exceptional customer service!

There were a few places with great reviews but most of the moms that I knew sent their kids to DanceWorks for ballet / tap / etc. I was surprised by the lack of reviews but decided to try it out and WE LOVE IT! My daughter is always energized and happy leaving class and we are looking forward to their annual show in June where all classes get to showcase what they've learned. In addition, we just had my daughter's 6th birthday party here and I received multiple follow ups from parents telling me that their kids had so much fun at the dance party. I decided to add a review to help any parents out there who may not be aware of DanceWorks and may not hear about it through word of mouth. It's a wonderful place!

I carry Danceworks in my heart now, and always! If I didn't live in California now, both of my kids would be dancing with her, 100%.

It was certainly different having those types of movie-theater like seats for a concert, but, due to the calming nature of the two musicians, it still worked. However, there were definitely patrons that were treating it like a loud, standing room venue that were animatedly talking throughout most of the show.
