Danella Dutton: what do users think?

Gabriella Puente: We had such an awesome time learning salsa from Danella for our wedding first dance and also have stayed on for general group classes because we are loving sharing this hobby as a couple! Danella is an incredible teacher, she commands the group lessons masterfully but also takes the time in individual lessons to coach, refine, and add styling. We are excited to continue coming back to Danella's classes!

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

3rd Street Dance: what do users think?

Vikki: Smaller than I thought from photos but really nice people. The windows are 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!

By Your Side Dance Studio: what do users think?

Sylvia Cardona: Love my hustle lessons and group classes with Shay DixonHe’s an outstanding professional- great dancer and also a gifted teacherBest of the best

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.

The Westmor Dance Studio: what do users think?

Jessica Turney: The moment I walked into the studio I thought, “this is my new dance home” 💜 The most beautiful studio space with a large floor for standard/smooth dancing. But most importantly, very welcoming and kind studio owners and instructors. Wonderful for any age, skill level, and interest in any dance style. Social, competitive, or wedding dances are all addressed professionally and with great fun by the Westmor staff. Westmor continues to inspire me to become a better dancer, all while enjoying the progress along the way 👍🏽 10/10 would highly recommend. 🎆🎇🌌🌈🌺🤟🏽

Soho Dance LA: what do users think?

paul baddoo: Insane experience I would recommend it to anyone who wants to get some calories burned.

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!
