My daughter has done ballet here and my niece, hip hop. At first I wasn't sure what to expect since…read morewe were new but the price was great and the teachers seemed really good. The reason I am giving it 5 stars is because overall, the Movement Lab owner (Bernadette) and team have so much passion and heart for this business and dance. Everyone we encountered here has been a genuinely good person. They were patient and kind with my daughter as she learned ballet basics. We especially felt this in the final recital. Even though it was a little hectic the week of the recital with two dress rehearsals, it was all worth it. Not only was the recital entertaining with all types of dance (ballet, hip hop, jazz, modern, break) but it was so heartfelt and creative. If I had known, I would have made it a point to watch both shows. It was that good. I also loved how Bernadette offers a dance class for special needs teens and adults and that they perform at the recital as well. It was so lovely to watch and it shows that Bernadette and her team have a big heart and include everyone in dance. Such a nice dance family to be a part of.

I used to dance here. I was doing a fundraiser for a soup kitchen in Santa Rosa. I asked if they…read morecould donate a class or private lesson and they willingly gave me a gift certificate for 4 private lessons which was very generous. The person who bid on it was previously a student there. He tried to use it and they told him he couldn't use it because he wasn't a new student even though it says nothing on the gift certificate that you have to be a new dancer. They told him to have him ask me to give him back his money that he paid for it. This is just another example of the sleazy business practices. So disappointing for the man who bought it. There are so many other places that are fun to dance that have ethics. Jenny in response to your comment with the two other gift certificates you donated for our auction this was not the reaction not honoring certificate. The certificate says nothing about needing to be a new student as a requirement. It also, costs me alot to put on an auction and to create materials to promote your business at our auction. Often times people by gift certificates to support and event and never use them but this time someone wanted to use it. The recipient called me last night and said you offered him a month of free group classes after I posted this. At least he got something for his money. So thank you.

Her energy is super positive and she's always open to questions and comments as we go through class. We've tried one other teacher before but in Jasmine's classes it is the first time I feel confident to mess up and it will be ok. She is kind and patient and the culture she creates supports this energy. We've been taking her classes for just shy of a year and it's been so much fun in our lives. The people in class, the community she's cultivated, and the overall vibe is seriously just so much best! It is $25 for drop in or $20 per class if you do the whole series, usually about 8 weeks. She offers classes in Santa Rosa, Petaluma, and Larkspur each week. She also puts on dances throughout the year between Marin and Sonoma county which are a great opportunity to mix and mingle within the community and flex your moves! I'm being gushy but it's been such a fun addition to our lives, I just love the vibes so much! Thanks Jasmine (& Tony) for being so awesome!

Staff was friendly and helpful at the event, whether serving us drinks or helping us find our seats. The venue was plain looking both inside and outside. The seats in the auditorium (Ruth Finley Person Theater) were basic but not uncomfortable. And the view, even from the last row in the back on the lower level, was decent. Sound from the stage was fine, clear enough that I could hear every single word the comedian used to keep the crowd rolling with laughter, including myself of course. Good times!
