    Solo session with Miss Elaine
    Sarah C.

    I can't say enough about how much my daughter and I love our Industry Dance Family. We are coming into her 3rd summer/dance season as a company member. She has grown and matured so much in the past few years here. The staff is amazing and the owners, Maia and Rhonda make you feel like family. I am so glad we decided to make the move from our old studio.

    This is Ms. Stacy's Saturday class. My daughter is the middle girl.

    Amazing dance academy. Our daughter is 4.5yrs old and Mrs. Stacy is the dance teacher. Our daughter is in combo 1 which is Tap and Ballet together in a 45min session. Great location that is close to the freeway.

The thing I love most about there is that they have is tic toes that will teach you the skills and the foundations do dance while still making it fun. I need a balance of technique and fun and they deliver! I have had the esteemed pleasure of working with and competing with many of the instructors, I've learned a multitude of dances, had incredible support and the most fun I've had pretty much anywhere. Dance itself can be almost addictive once you jump in and boy what better place to get those endorphins in while learning than at a place like this? I went from knowing virtually nothing and feeling very overwhelmed (in a good way) about any partner style dance, (I also didn't have a background in other forms of dance) and threw myself in entirely to then be at my first salsa competition a year later. I'm so glad I made that investment. I've warned lifelong friends and memories. They have knowledgeable teachers, kind staff, a wonderful space and always something fun going on. I have worked with the owner, Raul, the amazing Artem, the show stopping Yesenia, the bubbly Deana, the sassy Jackie and many others during my time there. The knowledge and experience I now possess makes me feel comfortable in most dance settings, socially or otherwise. If you're looking for a place to learn and have fun...this is it!

My daughter attended the acting classes for a while, and ultimately it left something to be desired. Pros: * Friendly, professional staff. * Productions are nicely done * Makeup classes allowed * Clean facility * Convenient parking Cons: * Pricey for what's offered * No proper script book--only printed pages (my daughter now does theater elsewhere and receives full script books) * We never received any instructor feedback about our child's progress * Productions are extremely short--some felt only 15-20 minutes long. Family and friends would comment on why so short. * The fees to participate in the shows and ticket prices for the productions are high considering how brief the shows are I wasn't expecting Broadway level acting classes but did expect a bit more. In the end, it felt more like a money grab than a meaningful learning experience, so we decided to stop attending.

I am a teen ager Mom and I want my daughter to try learn dancing at this place but there are no beginner class, even if they say they have beginner class. and too many people. It seems like they are all experienced dancer or at least they 've been dancing more of times than beginner. My daughter said that was not for beginner and not for learner, it seems like they are just gathering together for dancing. and admission people seems to be not friendly, they are just looking at me strangely.

I've never seen so many influencer type people packed into one room. Unfortunately, there are no lockers to put your belongings in so you throw it on the floor like everyone else. There is also only one bathroom for prob 70 girls, so try to go beforehand. As for the class itself, I did struggle a bit because I have no choreography background. It looked like the majority of people had some sort of dancing experience (or they were just naturally good). Also, it was so packed that I couldn't see the instructors in the front. I would recommend trying to get a spot in the front row, but you better be the first in line for that. Otherwise, good times.

    Been attending classes with my oldest for roughly 6 months now. It's been an overall fun and…read morepleasant experience! We started with Miss Taylor, who was very welcoming. We had to switch classes for scheduling reasons and are currently with Miss Emily. She's very engaging with both the students and the parents. She makes sure to keep us all informed about what our little ones are learning, even giving feedback and updates on progress. The customer service has been very top notch too. Most inquiries or requests for rescheduling has been handled quite promptly and without issue. The most recent one being helping a fellow mom take advantage of the "bring a friend to class" promotion the studio was running last month. The studio admin, Sydney, was great and handled everything! We've participated in one recital so far. Sign ups for recitals are optional, so I did not know what to expect, but I certainly didn't think that my daughter was the only one from her class that signed up. My other guess is that not many other girls from that age group signed up either, as she had to perform with just one other student who she didn't know. It was not a long performance, which was to be expected. We're unsure as to why the littlest ones went first, as they set the tone for the rest of their peers, giving the impression that going up on stage has to be a daunting and traumatizing experience. It was my daughter's first time on stage, so I can't say it went fantastically, but I also can't put too much blame on anyone else for that. If anything, it just means she needs to have more classes so she can get better! I can't seem to find out if there are any offers to provide discounts for sibling sign ups, so I hope you guys consider doing something like that in the future!

My background is in education and I have worked at elementary, middle, and high school levels as well as a kid's soccer coach so I have some context for how easy/tough it is to teach classes. Our ballet teacher was Ms. Natalie and my wife and I both thought she had a very caring demeanor for working with children. That is something you don't teach. Even though a 1.5 year old can't listen to direction the way a 3, 4, or 5 year old can Ms. Natalie adapted well and tried different things to get our daughter's attention. The studio is nice and well decorated. Parking is easy in the shopping center. We definitely intend on going back. We had a great experience.

Click on "faculty and staff." You'll see nobody listed because practically all their staff have quit. It's a toxic environment where the directors and teachers treat dancers with disdain. They make comments on what the young girls are eating (that's a major red flag at a dance studio). It's a very sad decline. They used to put on a production of the Nutcracker at the Alex Theater in Glendale. It was glorious. That was before Covid. Now they put on a small family only production in a little theater in Northridge. They used to have many dancers winning competitions. Now they barely have anyone even qualified to enter competitions. It's a very sad state of affairs with many dancers going to much better, growing dance studios in the area. I'd be surprised if LABA is still operating later this year. So sad to see it fall from grace. I guess all good things come to an end.
