Best Dance Lessons Los Angeles Near Me

Meosha Meosha: It's a really fun time in the heels class, however the only con is that it's just way too many people it makes it difficult to actually see the teacher most of the time. You would think they would have a video of her or a stage or something that makes learning the dances a little simpler, that's all.

Iago Almeraz: Always a great class! The staff are wonderful, friendly, organized and professional. The studio is always clean and ready for the next class! The POSITIVE energy is RADIANT!

HIROKAZU ITO: Popular classes have long lines.It is also reserved on the app, so I think it is essential to download the app and reserve the class before taking the class.

Jennifer Marinov: My favorite dance studio in Los Angeles. It's such a great community. Parking is very difficult though. You have to park in the residential streets nearby which all have different hours for parking. It does have two bathrooms but no waiting area or place to relax. The room is all you get. Overall, great studio though with fantastic teachers!

Sarah Gittler (Sarah): Great teachers, great community! Expressive heels class is amazing! A lot of the dancers have experience but they will make you feel welcome regardless your level of experience

Marivampp: Ruby's Kpop dance class is awesome! She's so fun and full of energy, and her teaching style just clicks. Whether you're into Kpop or just love to dance, you'll have a blast in her classes. Definitely recommend giving it a shot!

Ryan Richko: Kpop with Ruby is one of the best classes at LA Dance Fit. It’s fun, challenging, and you get to learn your favorite Kpop choreo. Ruby is also a wonderful instructor with a great personality and some sick dance skills. The community at this facility is incredibly supportive and friendly. Highly recommended!

Dominique Schultz: Ruby is the best! I have had so much fun in her kpop dance class. It is so hard to find studios that teach kpop classes in west LA and hers did not disappoint. The community in the class is so welcoming and I can already see improvement just a few classes in. Highly recommend taking her class!

Nicolette Fernandez: It was a great class! Teacher was fantastic, music was so good, moves were fun & I got a great work out! Highly recommend the Salsa class with Fayad! You won’t be disappointed!

Laura Wasserman Steuer: I did CardioDance with Manu, it was a blast!! Very fast paced and I could not always keep up as a first timer, but I pretty quickly caught on and loved it!!

Diana Geiger: My favorite place in the world! My happy place. Pure joy

Ester Ezra shviki: It's my favorite place in Los Angeles I wish they open one in the valley. We have nothing like that in the valley.

Kate O'Donnell: Took my first class here yesterday and had the best experience! I took hiphop 2 with Kiari - definitely a challenge for me but it was not as intimidating as other studios. Loved the choreography and Kiari made the class really fun. Street parking was easy to find. Can't wait to try out the other classes!

Mrs_ KN: I just love the atmosphere of this studio and I love to take Fayad's class because I consider it to be a fun, moderate cardio and inclusive salsa dance class. This is now part of my weekly self care routine!

Angeles Thomas: DanceFit studio is amazing . I had so much fun and love the classes. ⭐️

Janae D. Green: I absolutely love here! Good enough to make you sweat, but still fun. Would highly recommend. Groove3 on Wednesdays are theeeee best!

Elizaveta700: I really love Wil Wilson's Hip-Hop class! It is soo much fun! So many calories burned enjoying the music, dancing and warm atmosphere of all dancers.

Molly Kron: I took Body Groove class with Nikki and had the absolute time of my life!When I first heard of Body Groove, I wasn’t sure about the style of dance or how difficult it would be. I have taken a lot of dance classes over the years, and this one was the easiest to pick up by far. All the moves that the class does in unison are open to interpretation, and there are no wrong answers! Seriously! If you’re rusty, have two left feet, or you’ve never even danced before, you can joyfully dance your way through this class. AND if you’re an accomplished dancer, you will have a blast expressing yourself and get a great workout.Nikki was a fabulous teacher: hilarious, uplifting, and great at breaking down the moves. She was attentive to the needs of everyone in class, providing thoughtful options for modifications that still felt fully engaged with the dances. As a bonus, she had so many creative interpretations of the motions that it was fun to watch her for inspiration throughout the songs. I don’t know how anybody on earth could have gotten through even a few minutes of this class without a huge smile on their face.It felt like having an energetic dance party with friends on a weekday morning! I had so much fun that I didn’t even notice that I was doing an insane amount of cardio. Go check it out! You will not regret it!

Sara Rutenberg: I took Body Groove which is taught by Nikki Tilmouth. I always feel like an idiot in dance class, but this was no ordinary dance class. Nikki's exuberant enthusiasm, choice of music, and amazing choreography made everything easy to follow, and I had a wonderful time. If you want to have fun, dance, and just feel great about your body, take this class. There are even chairs to use as props, or if you need to do some sitting movement!. It's truly unique and you will enjoy every minute.

Amanda: Love this dance studio, awesome vibes! Also for those looking for super beginner friendly classes try Jaysu or grooves w Crystal. Larry’s class is closer to intermediate. Charles can be beginner friendly too just depends on the day. Edit: My only complaint is that they’ve added more int/adv classes so if you’re a beginner your options are more limited.

Yellowjacket Beats: Rūts introduced SO much joy into my life. I'm 28 and had never taken a dance class before, although I always loved watching the videos. I was super nervous to try out a class in person, but immediately those nerves went away on the first class. The atmosphere here is so energetic and supportive; people of all levels of dance come together to learn the same choreo or fundamentals and it feels genuinely social and FUN. I'm beyond happy that I pushed myself to take class, it changed my life.Now I've been coming 4-5 times a week for 3 months and I feel like I am a part of an actual strong community. The people you meet here are so kind and genuine and come from all walks of life. I've made a ton of lifelong friends here and am starting to even feel more confident to try out all the varieties of classes here and the quality of instructors is always top notch! Highly recommend this studio; you will receive high quality instruction and attention in whatever style of dance you're interested in, as well as meet regulars and friends to share the fun and make memories with. Come for the dance, stay for the community

Timothy Na: If you’re looking for a dance community that’s welcoming, encouraging, extremely active, and full of fun, then you’ve found the right place. The dance teachers aren’t only amazingly skilled, but they’re humble, informative, caring, and knowledgeable in their genres. This place just feels like home and it’s a safe haven for many of us. If you’re looking for a new hobby, want to make friends, or want to level up dance skills, you can find them all here. I’ve taken over a hundred classes, and I’m sure I’ll see you in class one day because I’m never leaving haha!

Vicky Johnson: loved the dance class overall but front desk people weren’t very welcoming, didn’t greet me and my friends but greeted others, came off slightly rude

Kris Chen: I was garbage but thiis place has supportive vibes and rly badass instructors and I had fun

Katherine C.: my first ever dance class! Took a class with Anthony and it was a packed class that day but felt supe encouraged and had a lot of fun to just let loose. Highly recommend this studio!

Sena Lee: Went into Rūts just to support my friend’s new hobby, and I found myself bopping along in the back, itching to jump in. The instructor broke down the moves into fun and easy-to-remember steps, and my novice body screamed, “put me in coach, I’m ready”🙋‍♀️. The studio carries an incredibly welcoming environment that puts you at ease to move and express yourself.10/10 recommend.I can’t wait to come back and try the different dance styles!

Rebecca Cardenas: Ruts has incredible instructors! High quality teaching and affordable. I highly recommend!

Laura Mathey: Very cool studio people are so nice !

Alain H.: I had an awesome and very instructional beginner's salsa boot camp today, led by Gina! Will definitely be attending more classes in the future.

Aseel Nazer: Excellent work excellent staff

Mark Maccora: I have learned so much about how to be a good leader and partner from the excellent teachers at 3rd Street Dance. It has allowed me to be much more confident on the dance floor, and I can apply the lessons to others parts of my life, as well. The community is also great. Thank you for such an inspiring and transformative experience!

Dee Gee: Beginner Dance salsa was a lot of fun! Gina and the other instructor were great teachers, super welcoming, high energy. For partnering that have you form two circles with leads on one side and follows on the other. Very inclusive of folks who want to lead/follow regardless of gender identity.

Robert Gish: Both the , Kizomba class, and teacher, and the salsa class and teachers were excellent

Huyen Bui: took the beginners salsa bootcamp here. amazing class, great teacher. would do again and highly recommend

Francesco Civilini: Great atmosphere and friendly people.

Bryan Sanson: It was great. We were able to social distance in the parking lot everybody had Mask and there was hand sanitizer they also had sheets of wood to dance on. Other than that instructor Leslie is a great person to be around she always has great energy.

Melissa K. Dagodag: We took ten private lessons with Tamas and he was amazing! He choreographed our wedding dance and really made us look like we could dance by about lesson number 7. The last few lessons became enjoyable because we knew the moves so well. And, best of all, our wedding dance went spectacularly well on our big day. I can't say enough about how grateful I am to our patient and skilled teacher!

Lettie Herbosa: Rueda!!! Come and join the fun every Saturday at 3:30pm-- just for an hour, try it!! I'm sure you'll love it!! But, truly, whatever class you take, I'm also sure you'd feel like you are in 'another world'. :

Sergey Kucher: I love Salsa Rueda classes at By Your Side! Great vibe, venue and people! This is one of very few places in LA where you can learn and dance Rueda. I’d recommend to anyone!

gabby lol: Wonderful, lots of patience, works with all levels of expertise, and fantastic and easy to work with. Quince vals was a complete success, thank you!

Dan Fisher: Amy gave us fun lessons where we learned the waltz for our wedding. She provided exciting personal choreography for our song. We had a great time practicing and learning the steps. The studio is close by and has multiple rooms for various lessons. Can't wait to try some group lessons and dance more!

Michael Delgado: My fiancé and I took dance lessons for our wedding. We had a great time with Rene. Highly recommend.

Tony Horton: I love this studio!! I’m in my mid-forties and I’ve never danced in my life. I was very nervous about starting a new class and thought I might be with students that had a dance background and I’d be in over my head. I started taking tap dancing there and I am loving it. The instructor is so encouraging and positive and very sweet. The other student are so friendly- we’re all at different levels and that doesn’t matter. There are adults of all ages in class, and I can keep up and I don’t feel out of place.I absolutely love the experience I’m having there and I look forward to every class. I’m also getting a great workout while I’m having fun.

MM MM: Wonderful school and super friendly people. Teachers are amazing. Great place to learn as well as socialize and make new friends. My new favorite hang out.

Aimee Malgapo: I absolutely love the salsa classes at By Your Side! The teachers Deborah, Laura and Guillermo are friendly, fun, and patient! My favorite class is level 2 salsa on Sundays with Deborah. She comes up with some very interesting patterns and it's a challenge but I love that there's always something new to work on in class. I also recently started taking tap with Maria. She's super great with beginners. Sometimes BYS hosts themed social dance parties. I really enjoyed their Halloween and Valentines Day salsa and bachata party! The studio offers amazing classes and hosts a great, warm and welcoming community. I can't wait til they open the new studio in Marina Del Rey.

Christian Tallarico: Had an awesome time with Rene! They got us ready for our wedding dance and even filmed it for us so we could practice at home.

Michelle Ting: Great space! Wonderful community!

Roy Amemiya: Great vibe, 2 separate dance floors that can be separated or combined. great instructors, Covid protocols & easy parking too!

Terry Rangno: and already I'm beginning to look like a Pro. Move over Fred Astaire !I love the place. The teachers are excellent and the studio is beautiful.Who knew you could have so much fun and lose some weight at the same time !

Igor O: Positive:Communication,Professionalism,Quality,ValueGreat dance studio! Very professional atmosphere. The dance teachers are very patient and professional.

Brooklyn Tower: The best dance teacher on the West Coast. Amazing

Ron Parker: Great Floor. Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Very welcoming environment.

angel: Positive:Communication,Professionalism,Quality,ValueIts beautiful! And from my experience here from a couple of months ago its wonderful here

Andrea Shink, CDRE: I've been taking several group classes each week at Soho for nearly a year and love it! The classes are fun, the instructors are helpful, and I've improved my dancing tremendously. The privates have proven integral in me upping my skill and styling, but my one regret is I didn't start taking private lessons sooner, as now I have to unlearn bad habits. :/ They've created a warm, friendly and judgement-free community at Soho. Come dance with us!

Samuel Smith: Me and my husband decided we wanted a choreographed dance for our wedding, so as gays do we started taking dance lessons a year in advance. We met with our fabulous instructor Tamas Kardos several times in 2021, and then decided to take about 8 more classes the months leading up to our wedding in 2022. We mashed together two songs with a classic ballroom waltz which transitioned into salsa. We provided Tamas the mixed tracks and he was able to create a choreo for us that captured the emotions of both songs. He's a very good teacher for beginners, while also able to introduce some more complicated moves as you learn. We want to keep taking classes with him! We also set up a small group salsa lesson with him to get our guests excited!

Mary Hershman: Great location, parking is easy. Fun old school interior. Love the Saturday 9am Zumba class with Michael! Great workout and lots of fun. Very friendly group.

Forrest Walsh: Nice people. Nice size dance floor.

Steve Zawada (Tyger): Friendly people. Air conditioned studios

lani taliaferro: Most of the dance teachers are very professional as well as knowledgeable. And very kind! Special shout out to Pamela!

Rodney Chester: Amazing studio been going there for years and staff and owner is so amazing!!

Faith Corvatch: Modern jazz class with Walter Painter, a bit outdated place but we dance in Hollywood! Allow around $15 for a class

Nedra Shelton: I'm so glad she stayed close to the hood where kids from lower income can also have a chance to go to her school ❤️

Sophia B: also enjoyed seeing Miss Debbie Allen pay attention to the kids and caring.In four days she has learned so much more in Ballet. 🙏Maybe she can someday audition for the Red Bird. But first she'd have to be part of the Academy.

Fahmee Hakeem: Great place to learn how to work with others & learn creative skills ✍🏿

CooperMorgan Dance: Love

Marcia Grinnard-Davis: The academy tour was phenomenal. My mom, 2 sisters and cousin, Alicia, were just visiting some place new where we've never been and don't have family. We lucked up upon this gem through a tourist guidebook of Los Angeles and we were not disappointed.I saw the Debbie Allen Dance Academy in the guide and I was so excited. I've always admired her beauty, skill, commitment and talent. I told my family about it and they were all in.I called to get information about a tour and was bowled over to learn that a tour was available the very next day and there was no charge. The tours are booked upon availability and there is NEVER A CHARGE.I spoke with Ms. Sonya Morgan Charles, whom set up the tour. She was very energetic, enthusiastic and proud of and about the Academy.The building itself was full of African-American Art, portraits and pieces that expressed our culture, heritage, talent, beauty and pride.Imagine our delight and surprise when Mr. Norm Nixon, co-owner and spouse of, Ms. Debbie Allen, greeted us and became part of our tour. Needless to say, we were speechless and excitedly surprised. Mr. Nixon, was friendly, personable and approachable. My sister, Cynthia, was beside herself.As I mentioned earlier, we traveled with our mother, whom is 90 years old and Mr. Nixon, engaged her and made her feel relevant when he asked her about her birthplace and he shared hisand the commonality that children of the South share.I could go on and on but I want the pics I took speak for themselves. As a side note, we were secretly hoping Ms. Allen would pop in and we were told that she had planned on stopping by but, alas, we were not honored with her presence before we had to leave.If you are ever in the Los Angeles area, specifically, Culver City, you must make time to honor and appreciate the dedication, love and commitment that Ms. Allen, Mr. Nixon, staff, children and parents have given to further the Arts in our children and our community.

Alcilene Ribeiro De Souza: I loved it.. I highly recommend it.. a 1000 actress and a dancer.. wow

Nate Woodward: It was a great experience. I was amazed. I recommend parents who have children with dreams of becoming professional dancers to expose them to DADA to hone there skills and spring board their careers in dance...

C.L Towns: I have None...BUT I LOVE DEBBIE..NORM...N PHYLICIA!!!! NUFF SAID!!! Plus...I KNOW With Every MILLIMETER Of My Heart...Debbie Studio Is Soooo ILL!!! I know her peeps Love It!!!..my name is Craig!! That's Lil Sis Pictured!!!!

choosen2 preach: I don't go to your school but I heard about what you do and I think its awesome you would open a school of our minority. It's a blessing that you can see in us people of all races that we have a gift within ourselves and people can start looking at us people of color as an inspiration not someone who looks at us and then rejects us. many see us but you see us in a different spectrum and say wow she or he is worth much more than they think which is so inspiring. Thank you for being a tool of color and believing in yourself. Debble Allen you are so humble you took rejection and turned it into positivity. Like I tell others do what you love and love what you do. God bless you and your school. By what you are doing your breaking ther Barrier and your touching millions. I do have a disability and when people talk I always say I'm worth more that what you see, God didn't make a mistake. I want to encourage you to be the best. Debbie Allen if you read this thank you so much. Many doors will open for me one day I'm waiting by faith.

SanJuan Soliece: First time there, the staff, parents, and all the kids are very respectful. Good job Debbie Allen!!

Catherine Chang: I am beyond thrilled I came across this gem in the heart of mid-city. I have frequented over 30+ saunas across the country and I will say this is hands down MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITE sauna/studio of all time. The first time I booked, I was greeted by Lani. She welcomed me into the studio on a first name basis and made me feel so welcome. The studio itself is a vibe! It's super clean with the ambiance and lighting being a mood. They offer you a cold towel every time and ask whether you would like it with essential oils. Their pricing is very affordable with different package options or a single session. I feel so welcome every time I stop in as if I'm in a warm, nourishing community space. My first session was a week ago and I've already been back 3x. This is my new go to studio! Thank you Evolve Sanctuary for curating such a beautiful space!

Venus Andaya: I absolutely love it here! I’m still a beginner in pole and the instructors are so supportive and patient. They create SUCH A VIBE and a safe space to learn.The other pole girlies that come are also so helpful and friendly. And I love that as a collective for all of us, we hype each other up and congratulate each other.Community here is the most important to me. I have definitely been building my confidence and I’m ready to see how amazing my progress will be! Shout out to ya’ll!

Trish Craig: Love this place!! The saunas are incredible after a class. It’s so private and relaxing and all the staff is so welcoming and encouraging. Highly recommend!!

Julia Negroni: Evolve dance studio is the real deal! By far the best pole classes I’ve ever taken. Many places focus too much on conditioning, without much time for practice. Here was 90% practice, and the conditioning just happens from trying the moves over and over. I felt so accomplished that I could achieve more than I thought I ever could! The photo was taken just in my second class. Can’t wait to work my way up and unleash my inner goddess. ✨But not only are the instructors amazing, the service I received from Maddy over text has been top notch. She follows up, and even booked me a class when it was 9pm at night; not to mention, went out of her way to recommend treatments for my kinked neck.Lastly, as a tall girl, I appreciate the spacing between the poles. Lots of room to do your thing and not clash with others!If you’ve been thinking about trying pole, just do it here and look no further.

Lindsey K.: Had a marvelous, nourishing, and healing experience at Evolve’s Sanctuary and Infrared Sauna. Felt completely refreshed and rejuvenated after sitting in the sauna with friends. Lani was such a warm, welcoming and gracious host. It was a perfect birthday treat topped with the most delicious Gratitude essential oil. Thank you, Lani!

Tia: Super fun classes, customer service was amazing and I recommend the saunas!!

Reena Evans: Very nice and welcoming. Smells nice and clean! Love the tv screens with YouTube to watch. Brand new looking individual sauna rooms.

Diandra PT: The facility is so calm and clean. The owner makes you feel very welcome and the sauna is easy to use. I was able to customize the temperature and relax with their Bluetooth speakers to a program I chose to watch on their TV. The lavender cool towel was the perfect way to reset once my session ended. I will definitely be back!

Robin Zelko: . There’s room to stretch in the private sauna space. The owner offers you a cold, lavender towel as well as water if you need. She also provides you with towels. The space is minimalist and perfect for when you need to be in a low stimulation environment.

M C (Xixi): . My special requests and accommodations for classes and sauna have been met graciously every time. The studio and sauna are always super clean and smell inexplicably great. Support this business!!!

ROBIN VISO: It feels like being back home. I came here years ago but had to stop due to an injury. I've been back for about a month and it continues to be a friendly and supportive community.

mia quintero: Amazing experience. Booking next session asap!

Vanessa Benton: I had an amazing experience. This will be my Sunday routine. I came in sore from my work outs and left feeling refreshed and healed. Highly highly recommend!!

Pretty Pwincess: I wanna do this I’m 18 and chubby I seen some videos of chubby bigger girls doing dancing in this studio and I wanted to try out! I weight 214 pounds, and I’m eighteen , I seen on google the pole can hold about 500+ lbs. so I wanna try out, when are the tryouts and what are recommended to bring here as a beginner?

marcel Farmer: Great experience in the sauna very relaxing. I was sceptical at first about the infrared aspect,as I've never done it before.But with me being a trainer and working out I felt great was able to stretch and it actually helped in certain aches I had been. Overall great experience...

Carlos Suarez: definitely check out this space! the classes are a always a vibe. make sure to also check out BIRDIE! they teach on Tuesdays. such beautiful human.

Julia Curran: I've taken salsa and bachata classes on and off over the years from many different instructors and Danella is hands down the best. She teaches you how to know and get into your body, hear the music, and actually DANCE! She is encouraging and motivating, helps you figure out and achieve your personal goals, and regularly hosts workshops and social events to help you level up.Equally important is how Danella fosters a genuine sense of community and creates something really special that I haven't found at other dance studios. This is most certainly due to the tone of friendship and respect that she sets, how much fun she makes class, and just the gem of a person that she is, which in turn attracts great students. I have made so many great friends at her studio and absolutely adore everyone in class. The past year as Danella's student has felt like coming home to myself, and taking her classes has been one of the best decisions I've made.

Neill Clark: Danella's classes have the best community and its the best place to learn salsa! She breaks it down in a way that is easy to learn with plenty of practice to remember it!

Megan Besecker: Danella is an amazing instructor and creates a space for learning and building community. She teaches you about how to dance with your body, with the music, and with a partner -- she covers it all in different ways so that something will stick with everyone! Each six week series gives you new information to grow as a dancer, and within the six weeks, you really see your progression! I am addicted and now take classes 2x a week. Private lessons are also worth it. I wouldn't take classes anywhere else - highly rec!

John Sylvain: Awesome teacher!!!

Amy B: I just finished my first Salsa series with Danella and I have to say it has been an amazing experience, so much that I signed up for a second series. Everyone is very welcoming and we learn so much from each other. I love the way Danella structures the class and her positive energy. She makes learning salsa fun and creates an environment where everyone feels comfortable dancing. She is a very knowledgable instructor and I am very happy that I discovered her. I highly recommend taking her classes.

Dylan Sydneysmith: Danella is a fantastic teacher and also just a great person to be around. Not only does she really know her stuff, but she also has a really great grasp on the pedagogical aspects of being a dance instructor. I learned a lot despite knowing NOTHING going into it. Not only that, but Danella was also just really fun and our private lessons always flew by. We will definitely be signing up for more!

Jackie: I took Salsa Beg/Int. Group class with Danella she is an awesome teacher. She taught timing which was new for me. She is passionate about what she does and has great energy. It’s a good class! Recommend taking her.

Ilona Ska: Fantastic classes and an incredible teacher! I've had many instructors in my life and Danella is one of my favorites. She keeps things moving, challenges you, and is very patient with everyone's learning tempo. I highly recommend all of her classes.

Saroya Sandiford: Danella is one of the best dance teachers in LA, hands down! She's versatile, knowledgeable, patient, and so encouraging! Her classes are always a good time and filled with so much energy. I'm an experienced dancer and I always learn something new from her. She takes her time to work with each student, provides feedback, and helps you focus on the areas you need to improve. She values technique over flashiness, but don't let that fool you. Her partner-work and footwork combinations can get tricky.She has also built such a wonderful student dance community! Everyone is welcoming. She offers beginner, immediate, and advanced salsa on1 and on2, bachata classes, and student workshops and socials. If you are looking to improve your dance skills or just starting your dance journey, Danella is my go-to!

Stephen Reilly: Danella is an excellent teacher. I've been taking her salsa class for 6 months and I've learned so much. She creates an environment where I feel comfortable dancing and look forward to going to class. I’m wowed at how great she is in explaining the subtleties of certain techniques all while keeping the class engaged.Definitely recommend her for people of all skill levels.

Thomas Ash: Danella is one of a kind. Her dancing, lead and follow, look incredible and her teaching will take you to the next level. The classes have structure so you always know where you're going and what your goals are, both in each class and further forward. Also they hit the perfect balance between being fun but also challenging so that you can really move out of your comfort zone and push your dancing to the next level. And overall Danella is just a great, motivated teacher--she's very observant and somehow manages to give everyone detailed individual advice during classes whilst keeping a whole group class going.

Justin Estoque: I've been taking Danella's group salsa class for 6 years now, starting with beginners and moving up. Danella is both a skillful dancer and teacher, a rare combination in any performing art. This is evidenced by her loyal student following, and her group classes which are always full. She follows up with practice and review videos, and even shares her music. Her routines are challenging in both the choreography and the detail of technique she teaches, which mean than you are guaranteed to become a better dancer if you stick with her. She has unstoppable energy in each class. But the best part for me: her group classes are FUN!

Ala'a Amer: Danella is an amazing instructor.she is very dedicated and patient.I took group salsa classes with her in Hollywood and I enjoyed it a lot.In fact, I am willing to sign up with her again in the next few months.I recommend her to all my friends.

Ismael Alvarez-Aragon: Best Salsa and Bachata lessons in LA by far.

Kayla Carruthers: I’ve always known how to dance as a kid but Danella took it to a completely different level for me so far! Very easy and basic step by step, she tends to go around and help all of us and asks if we have any questions. Super efficient in her teachings and it’s all fun while we’re learning!-Kayla
