I absolutely love PlaygroundLA! I've been coming here every so often for years and I remember when…read moreit was just one studio. I love that tjey expanded not only in size but also the types of dance offered. My favorites are their heels classes. Admittedly some of the beginners classes don't feel like beginners because many people already know the moves lol Every class I've attend, the instructor had great energy, broke down the moves easily, was open to questions, and made you feel confident! If you're new to the Playground here are some tips: - come early to find parking. Yes there's limited meter parking, but there are streets that let you park from 8-8pm without a permit for 2 hours - bring water you will sweat! - you can walk in with a bag of your clothes and additional shoes since they have dressing rooms - come with a friend if you're shy and so they can record you if you want - make sure your phone is charged so you can ask someone to record what you learned - remind yourself that you're here to have fun! You can get in your head when so many around you are so good and comfortable. Also, instructors usually get dancers at the end to dance with them for videos and it can feel like youre not good when they don't choose you but remember: you're there for fun

One of my go-to places for Kpop dance classes in LA!…read more I love coming to Debut Dance District! Debut usually offers Kpop class series at different levels which can range from 2 weeks to a month. They also offer one day pop-up classes occasionally. You would need to reserve your spot at one of the classes online via their website. They also post what classes their teaching on Instagram and I like how they sometimes ask their students what Kpop songs they want to learn on there. Yireh, the owner and one of the instructors is great. I love taking her classes as she's super detailed and funny which makes the class enjoyable. The classes are shorter and pricier compared to other nearby dance studios, but what keeps me coming is the overall culture and vibe of this studio. Everyone is super nice and it's super friendly to all levels. The studio itself is nice and spacious. It is clean and well-maintained. There's also a parking lot downstairs with free and ample parking. There's even charging stations for electric cars.

Adding a couple of updates:…read more Private group classes are available as well as studio rental. Instructor Michael has been added to the teaching staff and he's a really good teacher as well. Each teacher have a different teaching style, but all are really good. You won't be disappointed!

It's a great old school dance studio vibe and just feels like home. I'm proud to call it my home base and Pam is so amazing. Anyone who might give this place a bad review is coming for the wrong reasons anyway. Or they might not understand it's a rental space and each teacher runs their own business from the space!

I always wanted to learn shuffling. I see it at raves and always thought those people are so cool…read morewhen they do the moves. It's super flowy and fast at the same time. I took the 6 week beginner shuffle program and it was a game changer if you want to learn how to shuffle. The beginner shuffle is every Monday 8pm-10pm. Highly suggest not missing any class because each class is packed with new moves. You learn all different kinds of moves and choreo. We had Brea and Mary Grace was our instructors and they are super awesome! They're super upbeat and always bring so much energy for a 2 hour class!! 2 hour class goes by super fast! I like that if you're struggling with how to move or any questions you have, they would break down the moves so it's comprehensible and answer any questions. Make sure you bring: good shoes, water and towel (if you sweat a lot) You can even record yourself, make sure the people behind you are ok with it. Restrooms in the building. Plenty of free street parking. Entrance: ring the bell for Gravity Dance because there are other companies sharing the building. The building is also super cool and the decor is so warehouse-like.

Probably the worst experience I've had at an intro class. The teacher immediately started us with…read moremusic, fast tempo, and barely anybody had the dance moves down. It was very awkward and she offered very little assistance with getting the moves down. The entire class should've just been us practicing the steps and trying to get it faster, not trying to coordinate it with music. I had to leave halfway through class because it was so awkward and I wasn't getting any assistance or alternate instruction for different ways of trying things out.

A diamond in the rough. The studio is huge, gorgeous and clean. The artwork and basketball…read morememorabilia that filled the walls are incredible. We are not from the area. This was our first time there. The staff, including the security, the lady who checked us in and called herself "the lowest person on the totem pole" (I'm so sorry I don't remember your name), teachers/director (especially the director), parents of academy members all were kind and made us feel welcome. Our sons first love is dancing. He is also a very sensitive 9 year old. Loud noises and new situations make him nervous. He melted... The staff couldn't have been better at guiding him through his first audition. We were ready to let him quit and walking out the door when a parent came out and convnced us to stay. Once staff saw what was happending they all were amazing at calming and doing what they could to make him comfortable. They allowed him to sit and watch, which turned into him getting enough confidence to finally stand and perform. Thank you. ** Don't let the low rating fool you. Dig deeper.
