Words cannot express my love for DC Dance, Ms. Diane and all her wonderful teachers. We have been…read moreat DC Dance for about 8 years and love it! My daughter started by taking a couple of classes and is now a company member. The love and appreciation of dance is at the heart of every class and in every instructor. A wonderful supportive staff and the girls who attend couldn't be lovelier. Along with the discipline of dance the girls are taught a focus that applies to all areas of their life. Dc Dance is my daughters safe haven when other areas of life get hectic. Everyone at DC makes her feel less bed, accepted and welcome at all times. If you are trying to choose a dance studio look no further than DC Dance and Diane Collins.

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.

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!

I visited Performing Arts Studio West (PASW) today and could not have been more impressed. We took three students with us and they also were in awe of the program and left full of excitement and OPTIMISM - they found their future and their future "home." There is so much positivity and that starts with the "two J's" John, the Founder/Director and Joe, the Music Director & Producer. They talk to all the students (or maybe members is the correct term) with such affinity, respect, and joy. Speaking of joy, that is contagious here along with such incredible positivity. PASW changes lives - the expression on the students' faces told it all. This is a hidden gem. Call, visit and expect the unexpected. See untapped potential come to life! Lloyd B.
