This is the place that I first went for dance classes. Aukai and Chris pushed me to become a better dancer. That helped me come out in the WNBA halftime show LA SPARKS. Also the owner of this studio is a great person. All around this dance studio you’ll be surprise it’s a gem and more people need to come. I love you... read full comment

I visited a beginners salsa class. It’s actually quite hard class. I used to go Granada and in there they can make dance literally anyone. And here I felt difficulties. As well not so much parking spots outside. Good thing the teacher is from Spain, so she has good vibes.

I love the beginner adult hip hop class! I feel like I actually learned something about dancing.
