From day one, the staff has been warm, professional, and genuinely invested in each child's growth--not just as dancers, but as confident young individuals. The instructors are incredibly talented and nurturing. They strike the perfect balance between discipline and fun, which has really helped my daughter develop both her technique and her love for dance. She comes home from class energized, excited, and proud of what she's learning. I also really appreciate the studio's clear communication with parents, and commitment to creating a positive and inclusive environment. Recitals and performances are beautifully done, and it's clear how much effort the staff puts into every detail.

I really like how they have Intro classes to the social dances which teaches the very basic steps and a couple of patterns and then progress up to Intermediate classes where you learn lots of patterns. Mostly I appreciate how they tailor the speed of the class to the level of the students enrolled. Taking ballroom and social dance classes has really been good for building my confidence, self-esteem and stamina. Highly recommended!

But we were pleasantly saved by retrying and driving around, and glad we went. The fact that they do a lesson to start is absolutely charming. There were many ages here, from teens to elderly and everything in-between, and everyone was full of spirit. People were very willing to invite us nervous Nellies to dance, and helping us try new moves with enthusiasm. Made us feel extremely welcome. There is a small buffet of food, and gave us the idea to next time bring a dish. Also drinks too. First tome is only $5, which is an incredible deal. There are three amazing ballrooms. I was so impressed with the layout of this place. Linda is such a nice woman. She has charisma and grace, and is a marvelous dancer. The other room was more for west coast swing. I was taught basic steps of WCS, rumba, and foxtrot. I was so excited! Classes are available too, I'm definitely into taking some classes. People were dressed nice. Everything was so classy and interesting. I absolutely adored everything. There is also parking. EXCELLENT!

In addition on the day of the encounter, the owner was busy at the studio all day with auditions. The studio should not be held accountable for an alleged interaction with the studio's customers. That review has nothing to do with the studio or the owner. In addition, as a fellow fat dance mom I can confirm that every one of those women has been welcoming to me and my daughter. I have never felt a speck of judgment for my weight or body. These women and their daughters have always been kind and respectful. My daughter left her studio of 6 years in her junior year just for the opportunity to train with the staff at Elevate. We were extremely nervous about making such a significant decision so far into her dance training but to say that we are thrilled with the results is an understatement! Not only is the staff at Elevate top-notch but the dancers welcomed my daughter and made her feel like she had always been a part of their company. I highly recommend this studio!

Community | Fun | Legit Polynesian Dance company…read more I've been taking lessons for about a month now and can confidently say I really like this place. Whether you're a beginner or well seasoned dancer, this place is more than just a dance company. It is a community of people who make you feel like you're part of a larger family, and we all have fun learning how to dance and learn more about the Polynesian culture. Angie, the founder and Tahitian dance instructor, has decades of experience. She prides herself on her technical background coming from a legit dance lineage in Hawaii. Her and her husband compete and win competitions. This is not a dance company that is interested in taking your money and leaving you to learn a few moves. This dance school pushes you and teaches you the Polynesian culture. This dance school celebrates diversity in many forms. This dance school also performs in festivals, events, and competitions. They were on the local news too! I'm in beginner Vahine on Mondays 6-7. This class is for beginners learning basic Tahitian. Usually, beginners start off with this class before switching to the Tuesday night classes from 7-8:45. The dance school is organized and uses an app to communicate and plan events. Angie records the class sometimes, especially for the beginner class, and posts it for those who wish to practice later. She also livestreams depending on weather and/or class size. If you need to leave early, they're very understanding. Dance uniform for beginner Vahine is a black top with black pareo/sarong. I'm currently paying an early bird special at $52/month for one class a week. This dance school offers these classes: tamari'i (5-11yr olds), beginner/intermediate/advanced Vahine, Maori, tane (boys 5+ and men), hula, Samoan siva, oil, musicians/drummers
