They are able to teach the many kids they deal with every day with humor and respect and enable their talent to blossom. Yes, my kids take classes here, and have for years, but it really is a great place. Couldn't believe it wasn't on here yet. NCDA also piloted a program where the families of the studio adopted families from nearby Camp Pendleton for Christmas (Bells of Freedom) several years ago. Last year, two huge UPS trucks and the guys in brown alongside a caravan of families made many underserved servicemen's families holiday a lovely surprise. What NCDA started benefits not only the military families but also the kids from the studio who do all the prep work and hopefully, learn a little about giving back to others. As a note, the studio also offers adult classes, both during the weekday and on evenings, for beginners and beyond. There are families that have both moms and kid(s) dancing at the yearly recital. Cuteness ensues. (Note: I'm not one of those moms).

The competition team is so much fun and the training is incredible. We also love that there is such a strong ballet program and how much emphasis they put on technique. My daughter loves Miss Erin and had the best time performing in Wonka this past season! We are so thankful we found West Coast and for all the teachers who have played a part in our daughter's dance journey. We wouldn't want her anywhere else!

We are so grateful for all the time, patience and heart they put into teaching and supporting their dancers.

You can tell that Ms. Francine, Ms. Marisa, Mr. Igor, Ms. Caitlyn, Ms. Victoria, Ms. Clara, Ms. Maddy, Ms. Kaylar, and really ALL the teachers truly care about the well-being of all their students, and the studio feels like family to us. My older daughter has enjoyed the Royal Academy of Dance (RAD) track, while my little one loves the hip hop (thanks Mr. Ethan!) and ballet/jazz classes. I personally love the adult ballet classes (Ms. Caitlyn!) There are a lot of choices for after school activities, but the integrity and professionalism of this studio makes dance my girls' favorite activity. Lastly, The Nutcracker, Spring Performance, and June Show are INCREDIBLE productions, and they really show off each dancer's technique and love of dance!

She trained rhythmic gymnastics at the pre-team level with Miss Sofia, the head coach of the club. I can't fully express my gratitude for Coach Sofia's wisdom this season in approaching all the girls in a way that preserves pure joy for this sport. My daughter has been genuinely happy to come to every single session -- and she's been training nine hours a week since February. She made friendships easily, and I truly feel the environment encourages that. We cheer for all the girls without comparing them. She competed without any nerves, because no pressure was ever placed on these young athletes. I believe she received a wonderful foundation. What matters most to our family is that we have a child who is excited to continue her rhythmic gymnastics journey -- and that says everything. Thank you, Coach Sofia. I also want to mention that San Diego Rhythm has an Aesthetic Group Gymnastics (AGG) program, and my daughter Matilda was part of the team for 4-6-year-olds. Her AGG coach was Miss Lina, and Matilda absolutely loved spending time with her and her teammates during practices. Miss Lina kept the little ones within boundaries beautifully while always showing them warmth and humor. The AGG experience left a lasting impression - Matilda still asks me when they'll do it again. We're so grateful for both sides of our experience at this club!
