Selah Groove - Heartfelt and Affordable…read more My daughter has been attending Selah Groove for a year, and it's the only activity she's consistently loved. The studio may be small and a bit cluttered, but what it lacks in appearance, it makes up for with heart. Miss Lida, the owner and teacher, is incredibly caring and passionate, offering various classes like gymnastics, dance, tiny tots and princess classes. The prices are affordable, class sizes are small, and the value is unbeatable. Our charter school covers the gymnastics class, and unlike other studios, Selah Groove doesn't charge hundreds for performances. My daughter has performed at the Del Mar Fair and a local festival, with only a small costume rental fee. We're excited for her next show at Knott's Berry Farm! For a loving, personal, and budget-friendly studio where your child can thrive and grow, Selah Groove is perfect!

Victoria has been dancing here for 5 years, and Isabel just completed her first year--and both have grown in ways that words can barely capture. The studio has nurtured not only their passion for dance but also instilled in them a deep sense of determination, discipline, and work ethic--all while keeping the experience fun, exciting, and full of joy. The coaching staff is nothing short of amazing: creative, highly educated, and truly invested in each dancer's growth, both as performers and as people. What makes this place even more special is the strong, welcoming community of families. The support, friendships, and shared love for the art of dance create an environment that feels like a second home. We are so thankful to be part of this dance family and can't wait to see where the journey continues to take Victoria and Isabel!

You can tell that dance and teaching are her true passions. All of her instructors seem wonderful and the students are thriving! This place houses some major talent! My daughter is so excited to attend her Hip Hop class each week. My daughter is also hoping to add more classes soon! It's a semi-strict environment (in a good way as the children need that) and a true commitment when signing up. But that's due to the company needing to plan for adequate staffing etc) Thanks SDDA

My daughter followed Ms Felicia here from another school when she opened her own studio and we're…read moreso glad she did! We've been with Ms Felicia since my daughter was 6 and she's a high school senior now. Learning from the great instructors at Inspire has helped her to develop her poise, grace, and stage presence. Pre-pandemic, my husband and I enjoyed participating in various capacities (performing, ushering, supervising the dancers) in the many performances the studio puts on each year, and we've always been impressed with how professional the staff and volunteers are, and the care and respect they show for the dancers. The office is professionally-run, the studio clean & well-equipped, and there are a variety of classes for all students. We've been very impressed with how hard Ms Felicia and the staff have worked to keep the dancers and families safe as they've followed all the county's requirements for remaining open. They do a great job of communicating with the families via email, the BAND app, and social media, and they have fun extracurricular activities too! It's always fun to spot our daughter or even us on the social media accounts! We're happy to support this small local business and will be sad to lose the community as our daughter launches into adulthood.

We started with virtual in the beginning of the pandemic, but now we have switched to in class. I hope my daughters continue to attend at Inspire until they are young adults. It's worth every penny!

As a dance newbie, going into a dance class can be awfully intimidating. Add 2 left feet and the…read morefact that dance has never been my forte, this usually sets me up for immediate discomfort and an ultimate choice to never return. I attended a free open house and expected not to like it (for previously mentioned reasons). However, I was surprised at how comfortable and welcome I felt. The instructors were straight forward, yet friendly and approachable. They were thorough in their explanation and demonstration of the basics, and were very willing to answer questions. If you are expecting the instructor to break down every single move repeatedly just for one person and watch and correct your every step, join a private lesson. Keep in mind, you are not the only student, and while repetition is key, you cannot expect to do enough repetition in one hour of instruction. Anyhow, although the first class was definitely a struggle, for the first time ever, I felt that perhaps I could actually learn and become more comfortable on the dance floor. Overall, my experience has been great. As a matter of fact, only 6 weeks in and with no prior dance experience, I decided to join a performance team, and have felt more confidence and seen more improvement then I ever have. I went from taking just bachata, to now trying salsa, burlesque, and hip hop. I recommend and invite everyone to try it for yourself!

I have been meaning to write this review for about a month now but keeping this low profile because…read moreI will get backlash on it. My daughter said this studio was great at first. She was having fun learning new things since it was her first time dancing again in a while. Then after a while she started to complain that she already knew these techniques and that they never learned anything new. This studio has horrible teaching, they keep reteaching the same technique from the RAD exam sheets and don't even try to learn anything new which doesn't give children room to reach their full potential. Also, students who have parents that work or / volunteer often give students with low experience hard and good roles to bad students and give good high experience students very low expectation roles. It's very disappointing how high my hopes were for this studio to only see how cheap and disgusting it really is. Also, I have heard this from other moms at the studio but staff from the studio have made children uncomfortable by saying things about how they look. Just absolutely sad and depressing a child has to think how they look because of these ignorant selfish people. Not even kidding, they are always having sewer problems, they always have to cut up the roof during class and water is dripping from the sealing, and to mention they always have construction going on and they just can't do it on a day not during class. Prices are way too high for low venue cheap places just to go see our kids dance. This studio also only focuses on one student who has been there for 15 years and all the photos on the photo review section is all about her and they maybe have a few other students but other than that she is the star of the show practically. I swear there is other and way better places to put our beloved children in other than this dump. Do Better.
