My husband and I booked with Viva for lessons before our wedding and I am SO glad that we did. Booking with Viva was so easy and included a free consultation before setting up any lessons. Payment was broken up, which it made it easier on our bank accounts, and they were so helpful when setting up our appointments. Everyone was so responsive and friendly. Our instructor was Parker and he did an amazing job starting us off with the basics and providing us with light choreography that we could handle. Our first dance ended up being probably the biggest hit at our wedding! I cannot recommend Viva enough!!

I came to find Viva Dance Studio when my fiancée and I needed choreography and dance lessons for our wedding's first dance. When I say I am not a good dancer nor have any dance experience, I am not underselling myself. (My now wife is much more experienced than myself.) Thankfully, Parker, our instructor, was very patient and understanding, starting our first lesson with the basics of dance. From there we branched out, creating a routine/dance that both my wife and I could easily perform at our wedding, which we did very successfully. Even halfway through our lessons, as we were feeling overwhelmed by the song we chose and the choreography we were practicing, Parker was extremely understanding and helped us choose another song that would be much easier to perform to. It made life easier and allowed us to successfully pull off our dance. All thanks to Parker.I would recommend Parker and Viva Dance Studio no matter if you are a beginning or an expert; planning a wedding dance or simply interested in learning dance. The space is fantastic and Parker is awesome. Shout out to Nika who was also so wonderful.Thank you Parker for helping us create and perfect our wedding dance. Without you, we would have just been going in circles, literally and figuratively.

We got connected with Parker and Viva Dance Studio when we needed to learn choreography for our first dance at our wedding. We have been so happy with our experience. Parker is an excellent teacher, not just teaching us the specific moves we need, but also the fundamentals of dance . He has also worked with us when we needed to modify things and has been incredibly understanding when we have struggled with practicing regularly. I was also impressed that he thought to prepare us for distractions that could happen during our wedding dance (dropping dishes, unruly child on the dance floor, etc). It was definitely helpful. We have already been recommending him to others and plan to continue lessons after our wedding so that we can have a fun and active way to connect with each other.

This group of instructors and staff are incredibly friendly and fun. Parker and Heriberto amongst the others have great patience and professionalism. The group classes are a great way for beginners and intermediates to learn to dance with other members at various levels. The setting is ideal with beautifully views of downtown and the various areas and dance floor areas add to the community environment and vibe. Its nice to see so much spirit after after many many’s years of dance instruction. Mentions to Nika, Maria, Katie and Jess whom have been very helpful and friendly to work with.

I Recently started dance lessons at Viva, and was quite nervous at first because i had no experience. But i can tell you from my first lesson, i was welcomed and felt like a family atmosphere. I took many group and private lessons. Every instructor is extremely professional and attentive. I had lessons with all instructors. They are just all amazing. Sensai Parker and Maria made a routine for me and was just amazing. Highly recommend Viva…

Since I loved Salsa dancing I was looking for a club or Dance Studio to Salsa dance for my first time Cleveland. When I learned they had Latin nights on Thursdays in this Studio I was interested and they did disappoint. Great hospitality, the dance studio is so beautiful. So much wide room to dance. The dancers that worked there were kind and friendly to me. Especially the dancers that danced there for Salsa. They made my experience in Cleveland something remember. If your Salsa dancer need some place on Thursdays nights this is place to be.

We took 8 lessons with Eddy to prepare for our Wedding's first dance. He choreographed the dance to suit our chosen song. He is good-humored, patient, supportive, and was receptive to our concerns. His expertise at dancing is matched with expertise in teaching. We also worked for 2 lessons after our wedding with Maria, who is exceptionally kind and generous. She is a very perceptive, talented, and knowledgeable instructor. Nika at the front desk was always extraordinarily helpful and accommodating. The space is spacious and impressive. Safe area with ample parking.

When I arrived into the parking lot the appearance is that it needs work done. There's bricks crumbling by the steps, There's a koi pond by the entrance that smells like sewage. Upon entrance There's a grocery store that smells lime dead fish. Back by the elevator floors are dirty elevator is dirty , do i had to go to the 3 d floor when I got off the floors are gifts there too. As I approached viva la dance There's a restaurant There's so it smells like food and might I add they have kitchen supplies sitting a grew feet from viva la dance so it make it look trashy. Viva inside was nice but the could provide more tables. They do have a kitchen but no stove. Kerry was very very helpful and always carried a smile, just a all around happy guy and [cute].
