My daughter has been with Fifth Row for over 5 years now and we can't recommend it more highly!…read more It's a lovely place, with caring, wonderful owners, who truly want the best for all of their dancers. It's such a special place that welcomes all dancers! We popped around to a few other South Bay studios before finding Fifth Row and we're so glad we found this gem of a studio! They have every type of dance class and accommodate all levels of dancers. The instructors are talented, inspirational people and I love that my daughter is not only given great instruction but also has new role models to look up to. If you're looking for an inclusive, loving, fun, challenging studio, you won't be disappointed by Fifth Row!

I have two daughters who took classes at Fifth Row this past year and performed at the June show a…read morefew months ago... Let me begin by saying the show was AMAZING! The performances were spectacular - ranging from absolutely adorable to beautiful, uplifting and inspirational. It was truly a joy to watch and to cheer for all the dancers, each with their own special spark, lighting up the stage. It was equally touching to witness, throughout year and at the show, the beauty of the friendships that have developed and the sense of community that is palpable among the dancers and teachers at Fifth Row. As a parent, when I sign my children up for activities, I look for organizations, teachers and mentors that believe in nurturing the whole child and fostering a joyful and inclusive learning environment. I look for places and people that become part of my village, welcoming my children into spaces that become their second homes. Seeing the growth in my daughters this past year, not only in their dancing ability, but also in their work ethic, creativity, self-expression and confidence, I feel so grateful to be part of the Fifth Row family.

My youngest daughter is going into her 7th My Stage performance and we couldn't image life without…read moreher enrolled here. she struggled with reading books, but truly learned to read because she had the motivation to read her entire script in her first shows. I am always amazed at the costumes, set and production quality of the final show. I have an older daughter who has been coming for over 4 years. She started with a few My Statges shows and is now doing her second mini POPs show which has been such a confidence building experience for her. She was always a bit introverted, struggled with speaking to anyone she didn't know, but now I have over heard her credit her enjoyment of presenting class projects with friends at school to feeling confident in front of any audience size as a performer here. The staff truly feel like family to our daughters. They are exceptional acting, choreography and singing teachers! I really find it sweet that a few of the teachers even were students here when they were growing up. I think my daughter's only regret is that they don't spend more of their time after school here, so they and their friends always ask to do the vacation and summer camps here. Even the camps have been very good value. Priceless experiences for my daughters to build acting, dancing and singing skills and learn about working as a team to create exceptional musicals. We love the friends they have made here. They have grown closer with students they knew from their school & their cast mates. I could not image a better place to take my daughters.

In addition to classes, their social dances at Rusty's Rhythm Club are a blast! The regulars are friendly and welcoming and there is always a range of experience, making it a diverse group and lots of fun for every level of proficiency. I hadn't danced in a long time before starting up again in their classes but now I have been a regular for a couple of years. It's a great place to brush up or learn the dance from scratch. Highly recommend!

Lindy By the Sea is the friendliest place to learn to dance. Rusty, Ron and Ted are so talented…read moreand kind! I can always tell when I social dance with someone who learned from Lindy By The Sea because of their stellar dance etiquette. You do not need a partner and they make learning fun. There is a reason I keep coming back for more. I have learned techniques (not just moves) that make me a better follow. I am now learning how to lead. This place has certainly changed my life and is the highlight of my week. In addition to weekly classes at LBTS Rusty's Rhythm Club is a monthly dance with live music and a great beginner class at the start of the evening. Put on your dancing shoes and go for it!

This dance school has been declining ever since it changed owners a few years ago. They definitely…read moretreat this as more of a business and less a school. They have sadly lost a lot of their best dancers. They treat their dancers as assets/revenue generators vs students. There are a lot of hidden fees and very poor communication to parents besides bills and recommendations for additional 1:1 (more $$) lessons for their kids. While some of the teachers are great and kind, a couple of unkind teachers have proven to be sour apples and have driven many students away. Very sad.

It is also a school of mentorship for every person who walks through the doors.

Wonderful dance studio! My daughter has been enrolled in the white birds program (3 to 5 year olds)…read morefor almost a year now and she absolutely loves it. The teachers are lovely, kind, and incredibly patient. At the end of every session there is a mini recital for the parents. Everyone there is supportive of each of the girls and wants them to succeed. They have created a wonderful, strong, loving community for all of the members starting from the youngest ones. The hours the sessions are offered are working parent friendly compared to other studios in the area. Parents can take exercises classes while the kids are in dance for a reasonable extra fee, and the costs of the each session are very fair. Easy parking. We love this place!
