Best dance studio in Sacramento!…read more Top down, this is the place to go if you want to learn more about dance. It has various dance classes: k-pop, hip hop, jazz, ballet, etc. They also have youth lessons, and doing performances, studio rental. It has separate building for students lounge which has small gym, sofa, mini bar (honor system). If you are new student, there is special classes package discount!! Check-in upon arrival for the class. Everyone is friendly and helpful. The class seems always full as I observed the class before mine and the classes around my class. In short: this place is pretty hip and popular, good flow of people. For my hip hop class: it was around 40 people (mixed gender and ages). During hip hop class: the instructor was explaining step by step and section by section, to make it easy to everyone. What I like was he also rotated the class: so if you were at the back, you will be on the side or at the front at some point of the class. The class ended with full choreography, then students were encouraged to perform by groups and cheered by everyone. In overall, good vibe and community with great instructors. Parking: free in the complex If you are new, the GPS will direct you to the other side of the building which is the healthcare. The studio is at the back of the building, so after parking, to walk to your right side.

I hate to do this as my daughter previously danced here for Level Up and we had such a great…read moreexperience from that. Coach Lauren is 10 out of 10 for choreo and working with teen students. The following review is not a reflection of her in any way, shape, or form as she was phenomenal and my daughter admires her greatly. However, let me get into my most recent experience that will have me never coming back or supporting this business & I will tell anyone who asks.... Recently I attempted to book a booth so that my daughter and her friend from dance could have some extra rehearsal time outside of their company rehearsals to just rehearse and nail down technique. Nothing fancy, just hip hop style. I booked online through MindBody after being redirected from their website (awful confusing booking/scheduling system). When booking, I noticed it said that minors could not rent the studio -- which makes sense because they're under age and all that. However on the booking site, it did not specify that you have to be a "certified instructor with proper insurance" to book. The wording on the website (screenshot added below) implied that minors could not book the space without an adult present. Not a certified dance instructor but just a general adult. So cool, I'll sit with them while they rehearse and ensure they use the time and space wisely -- not an issue for these two girls but semantics. I booked online and everything seemed good. However, something told me to call the morning of just to ensure that everything was good to go as after my booking the studio I received no confirmation or reaching out of the staff which seemed odd but okay. When I called, the woman on the phone asked the girls ages. I mentioned they were 15 but I will be present with them the entire duration of using the booth. The woman then informed me that because I was not a certified instructor with the proper insurance this would not suffice and the girls could not use the studio we rented. She reiterated to me that it stated all of this on the website. I assured her that if that's what the policy is, that is not clearly communicated on the website and the verbiage reads as though minors cannot book but an adult can on their behalf but would need to be present. She said no. Cool, so we nixed that plan. I asked if since the policy was not clear and now we would no longer be able to use the space, could we please process a refund for the amount. She stated she could apply the credit for me as an adult to take a class but she could not process a refund. I am not a dancer and have interest in taking a dance class. My DAUGHTER is the dancer so applying a credit for me and me only to use is useless. I stressed this and asked again for a refund. She said no, "we do not process refunds". So now I am out money for a studio that I booked for my daughter to use with no clear communication of said policies, my daughter and her friend lost valuable rehearsal time they were looking forward to having, and I am left to wonder how many other people are they doing this to. It seems small but it's genuinely bad business practice. For a small business and dance studio you'd think there'd be better communication, professionalism, and overall customer service. I thought perhaps I was alone in my interpretation of the website verbiage but then found other reviews almost verbatim reiterating my experience. It seems if multiple people were misunderstanding the same thing (as noted in varying reviews), that as a business owner you'd want to clarify the verbiage so as to ensure the process is smoother for the customer/dancers -- however clearly it's not important enough to do so and it's coming off as a way for them to pocket money and not be bothered. Nonetheless, this is bad business practice and it makes the studio look money hungry instead of outwardly curating a space for serious dancers to grow. We won't be back. My daughter has danced at other studios in the area since our time with SDL and prefers them much more, however we were looking forward to the opportunity rent affordable studio space for a few hours of rehearsal on a Saturday. The studio itself is poorly laid out and crowded and doesn't curate the technique of dancers unless you join a Level Up or one of their teams so it's not too much of a loss overall but I would will never recommend this studio to anyone else in the future. The level of "we didn't communicate well but we also are keeping your money because we don't hold ourselves accountable" is shameful on the owners behalf. Don't go here. Don't give them your money. There are better studios in the Sacramento region with a better atmosphere and better customer service. Affordability for drop in classes seems like a great deal, but you get what you pay for -- low price = low standards.

Still enjoying classes at the Ballet Studio. Thursday with Robyn is now an intermediate class…read more Robyn encourages and gives thoughtful corrections to students of all levels. Her experience as a professional ballerina and training as a massage therapist lend anatomical knowledge. Wednesdays Sam's classes are faster paced but often feature a stretch session, and are are always fun. Katie's Saturday morning pointe/prepointe is a wonderful workout benefiting greatly from Katie's academic and expereicntial credentials. It is very strengthening also for students not yet on pointe due to all the footwork and relevés, as well as laser focus on correct placement. Pam's classes challenge both fitness and ability to catch on quickly to choreography--exhilerating! Now Coco teaches a new Friday evening class. She is a beautiful dancer and knowledgeable instructor.

I have been to many of the dance facilities in northern California/Bay Area, so I have a very good idea of comparable facilities. The dance floor is superior to the floor setups used in major studios and ballroom dance competitions. Since the studio's opening in early 2012, four showcases have been produced at the CDC with each showcase having a unique blend of local professionals and talented amateur dancers as well as professionals from NV, the Bay Area, and Southern California, and NJ. If you get to a CDC Dance Showcase or a major holiday dance event (e.g. Xmas or New Year eve dance party), you're in for a treat. Bill and Bobbi Roth, the studio owners, are the ultimate hosts. Oh - most importantly I almost forgot to mention that the studio has some of the finest dance instructors. This year one of the instructors and two of the amateurs from the studio were finalists in the U.S. Nationals Ballroom Dance Competitions with one of the amateurs finishing in 1st place. The best part for me is that sometimes I get to dance with them but always learning from them.

The drop-in price is very reasonable, around $10 per class. The teachers are also available for private lessons. The studio also hosts social dances.

They are about $15 per class, but we also purchased a 10 class pack which makes them only $10 a class which is really well worth it. It was just such a fun time. They even brought in drums and we got to dance with people playing the drums. That was such a fun experience and it felt like a dance party which I loved. Parking is really easy, it's right up front and there's tons of parking. The location is very easy to see as well. The instruction was pretty great and everyone was super friendly. I do wish the instructor slowed down a little bit more and was more vocal about where you're shifting your weights and that sort of thing with the body mechanics but she was so so fun, and everybody was so welcoming and friendly. The dance was quite the workout, be ready to sweat! The instructors are very passionate about what they're doing and that really shows. All in all really great experience and I bought the 10 class pack so I will be back!
