In one hour we did some warm up, learned some spins, did exercises that pushed our limits and then learned a short routine that we were able to perform by the end of class! So fun!

My partner has never danced before but I was surprised that he was able to transform into a confident leader.

I am so very impressed with Samia's talent in combining the most fun, creative, diverse moves that come from various forms of dance (Salsa, Cumbia, Jazz, Hip-hop and Bellydance) to create a simple, yet awesome choreography for everyone to enjoy. Being a professional dancer, that Samia is, she really knows how to do this well. She also has great taste in music, which helps a lot when you are tired and sweaty and want to get a good workout. I simply can't wait for my class each week. Thank you, thank you!

Not only have I begun to learn about a fascinating dance culture, I am, for the first time in my life, confident about dancing at all. I love the way she uses metaphors to help you understand how to make each dance component easier; I love her patience, encouragement, sense of humor, and sweet way of making everyone feel safe within this fun and joyful space that she creates each week. To say that I "highly recommend" this extraordinary teacher, is an understatement!

I feel so much healthier, and the community here is so friendly. There's a great variety of styles, and the overall environment is welcoming whether you're newer to dance or more experienced. There are so many amazing instructors, but I try to never miss a class with Hanna (hip-hop). Her energy is so high and positive that it's honestly therapeutic. She's an incredible teacher who breaks down choreography in a way that makes it feel doable, even when it's challenging. I also really enjoy Loups (hip-hop) -- he's hilarious, great for fundamentals, and somehow always drops the best life advice. Also a special shoutout to Elm (hip-hop), Yuki & Brooke (K-pop), Maoka (house), and Adrianna (jazz funk) -- their classes are so much fun as well. One thing I really appreciate is their community app where they post the class videos. It is so helpful for looking back to see your progress and figuring out how to improve. It's right next to a KBBQ spot with a tiny lot that fills up fast, so I recommend street parking. If you've ever wanted to learn how to dance, this is the place to start! First class is free!

I am so obsessed with this studio. The owners, Yaya and Hillary are such incredibly strong women that have cultivated a fun and safe community to work out in. I love all the clients and the sense of community. The studio itself is adorable- it is bright, sunny, and puts you instantly in a good mood. All their equipment is clean and up to date. They provide everything you need for class. My favorite thing about Shine is the "move to the beat" theme they have in every class. Music always motivates me to work out harder, so this is something I appreciate immensely. I also love their pillars of working out for yourself and for no one else. It's not about how you look, it's about how you feel. They work out not to get skinny, or lose fat-- but to feel better and create those endorphins because every body is beautiful, no matter what size :)
