I started out taking bgirl Naj's beginner breaking class and started to stick around for Jensine's popping class right afterward- both dancers know what's up and have been awesome. Since the whole COVID-thang Naj has transitioned to a virtual version of the class and it's still going strong! I would highly recommend checking out some of their online classes and once the world gets moving again to come through and take a class in person!

ADI has been a really positive experience for me as an adult beginning dancer transitioning back in…read moreto ballet after time away. The teachers have been knowledgeable, friendly, unpretentious and encourage questions. I've taken adult ballet classes at two other Seattle dance schools which I've decided to stop attending because the experience at ADI just feels right compared to the others. I'd chalk it up to: 1) Convenient location with free parking. 2) Welcoming environment. I met the business owner from day one and she was very friendly. The instructors learn your name, which surprisingly isn't always the case. It makes a difference. 3) Instructors that are very engaged with dance and can explain the subtleties well. 4) Flexibility; the school lets you make up classes in either the Magnolia or Greenwood location. You get emails if you miss a class asking if you would like to make up. In other schools, asking for make ups has sometimes felt like pulling teeth, but they make it easy for you if life happens. Also, there are a couple of adult beginning ballet classes per week with hours that are doable for someone working 9-6.

My daughter loves ADI. We moved to the area about four years ago and stumbled around until we found…read morethis dance school. We started in Greenwood and now take classes at Magnolia. My daughter has a great relationship with her instructor, Margaret, and everyone in the staff is incredibly warm and welcoming. No matter what activities come and go for my daughter, she never wants to quit dancing and I know that is in part due to the welcoming environment at ADI. It's always great to see the big smile on my kids face when she finish a class!

*Purchases her very own zils*…read more I totally underestimated getting an actual workout here. I don't know why. I thought that the fun factor would cancel out feeling the burn, but dayam, this was work. I took the Egyptian-style belly dancing class, the first class in their 5-week series. My glutes. My hammies. Every muscle in my arm. Some muscle in my upper abs that apparently don't get used on a normal basis. They all moved...and I got into it. Our instructor was fantastic, making sure to accommodate those with injuries, explaining the muscles being stretched or used. She was hands-on, too, making adjustments to people's postures. $15 to drop in or $12 per class with the series via cash or check. Street parking. Reasons to buy fun costumes and props imminent.

I currently take Badi (a dance fitness style class) in this location and love the feel and vibe of the entire studio. With ample mirrors and twinkle lights for ambiance, the space feels sacred. Descending down the stairs upon entering by Sur 16, I become mentally and physically far away from the busy Seattle life overhead allowing me dance my troubles away and become lost in the music. The location is also off of 15th street in Capitol Holl, home to many wonderful shops and restaurants, giving you ample options for food with friends or a quick coffee break before or after your class.

I also want to share my deep appreciation for everything that the dance crew has done and continues to do for the community.
