Such a spacious dance studio! I believe there's about 3 studios in this location, one being the…read moremain studio when you enter. There's several class types for all genres (kpop, hip hop, popping, jazz funk, house) - for different levels! So many teachers to choose from, recently I've been taking Jepoy's Beg Hip Hop on Friday nights and they've been so fun! I plan to take others! Each class is $25 unless there's a special guest, and you can book the class online or do a drop in when you're there (They accept Venmo on site!) I typically book day of, but best to book in advance when it comes to special guests. I wish there were class packs of some sort because I would love to come more consistently. Parking is pretty easy on Fri nights, but I can't speak for the other days, as it is located in the city. They also have spring performance workshops, which I plan to do in the future! I'm excited to keep coming back!

Teacher - 5/5. Good vibes and taught with the essence of what a dancer should have…read moreStudents - 2/5. Too much talking and not respectful during instruction. Lacks class etiquette. I used to come a few years ago, and I recently started coming back. I was pleasantly surprised because the current batch of teachers is much better than it was before. I took Eddie Mina's class on 6/24/26, and I absolutely loved it. The vibes were great, the choreography was taught thoroughly, and Eddie is an excellent instructor. I'm only taking off one star because I wish students were more aware of dance class etiquette. I understand that dance classes are supposed to be fun, but constantly joking, talking, and being unfocused with your group of friends while the instructor is teaching is disrespectful (not only to the teacher, but also to everyone else who paid to be there and is trying to learn the choreography) It was distracting enough that it made me hesitate to come back to this instructor's class if his crowd of students continues to be like this. (I didn't experience this in Austin's class, so I think the crowd varies by the teacher) In LA, most dance studios and instructors emphasize class etiquette and remind students to stay quiet and focused while the teacher is demonstrating or explaining choreography. I think that really helps create a respectful learning environment for everyone. I hope City Dance Studio can consider reminding students about class etiquette at the beginning of class or by posting a simple reminder on Instagram. I genuinely enjoyed the instructor and would love to keep coming back but the student environment is the only thing keeping me from coming back.

Growing up I was heavily involved in colorguard/winterguard where it was very contemporary/ballet technique focused. Since moving away for college and doing adult things, I forgot about my love for dance. Thank the dance angels I found Alonzo King LINES. I was twiddling my thumbs on class pass and found this spot and signed up for the Contemporary Fusion class with Jenelle. Love love loved it! Jenelle was the sweetest and grooviest instructor and she made all people of all experience feel welcomed. It was such a nice class to ease into dance. Will be coming back more regularly for the intermediate contemporary class and to keep up contemporary fusion with Jenelle!

Ballet is such a beautiful and graceful dance, and I wanted to get back to it, even if only for my own personal goals and wellbeing. The Academy of Ballet offers an amazing adult beginning course that starts with the basics and focuses on proper form to give you a strong foundation to build upon. Even though I had taken ballet in the past, I decided to sign up for New Adult Beginning Class. I'm so glad I did. Although I had taken classes here and there, this was not like riding a bike. I've been taking classes for about a year now and I'm feeling stronger and more confident. The teachers (Zori and Elizabeth) are great. They give wonderful instruction, keep an eye on our form and yet still make class fun. Magnolia is the administrative manager and manages registrations, organization and helps keep us organized with our classes a makeups. I'm sure she does a lot more behind the scenes but those are things that she has helped me with. She's also a lovely ballet dancer.

We had no experience and had no clue how to move our feet even if we tried. We decided to take some beginner group classes with Erin to start out in the hopes it would give us some rhythm. The group classes were great! Erin was such a great teacher. She starts off with the basic steps in the first class and adds more and more each week so people with our experience level can learn the dance. After a few group lessons we signed up for private lessons to choreograph our actual first dance. We took about 8 lessons to really get it down and the day of, we killed it. We could not get anymore compliments on our dance and it was all thanks to Erin. Erin really put in the time to choreograph a dance for us that included a grand entrance, intro and of course a final dip. She made sure understood and were comfortable with the steps and really taught us how to dance together. She even came in on her day off right before the wedding just so we could squeeze in one more lesson. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Erin really mad our first dance happen

We took a total of 5 dance lessons and we are so happy with the results. Our successful first dance would not have been possible without Genevieve's guidance, patience, and incredible choreography. She started by teaching us the basic fundamental dance steps (ie. rumba, foxtrot, single time swing) and then pieced the steps into a choreographed dance to the song we chose (Harvest Moon by Neil Young). She taught us how to transition from one step to another and provided us with tips on how to be more aligned with each other. This was the first time we've taken dance lessons since we were kids, but Genevieve made us feel comfortable and put us at ease! After every session, she would email us notes so we could review each lesson and practice at home. I highly recommend taking dance lessons with Genevieve, whether it's for your wedding or just for fun! My partner and I really enjoyed our time with Genevieve and are so thankful for her support and guidance. We look forward to further lessons with her in the future! Tips for new clients: I recommend starting your lessons at least a month and a half before your wedding. It would be helpful if you had your first dance song or a few song options chosen before reaching out to Genevieve.
