Dance 1

"If I could give this dance studio 10 stars I would!! I take ADULT tap classes and I can't say enough great things about these instructors- highly skilled, kind and patient. The music is awesome too- fun and upbeat, and the front dance room is great- high ceilings, bright and "airy" which I definitely need. The workout is great for those of you interested in that aspect- heart rate ranges from 120-152BPM in the intermediate class. I only found this studio 4 months ago- wish I would have known about them earlier!"

"We love Dance 1! We used to go to Pacific Dance on Aviation but this one is a a world away-- so much warmer and friendlier! Our girls have now been attending for about 4 years. They have a wonderful variety of dance styles and instructors. The love Francesca has for dance shines through in every part of this studio. The other cool thing is the Dance Company. The studio pours a lot of heart into a "young" dance company that travels and competes-- as well as offering free performances in a variety of venues. We have become big fans of Dance 1!"

"Love-love-love Dance 1!! My daughter is on her second year there and she just joined the "mini performing company" She is taking 4 classes and totally loves it. Francesca and Donna are absolutely fabulous instructors, and the other instructors are also great. Dance 1 it's certainly home away from home, everybody is friendly and polite. I'm so happy to have my daughter dancing with them."

"What a great studio. Great teachers. You really get quality dance instruction. Reasonably priced. Has classes from toddler to adult at a variety of times, day and evening, throughout the week. They also have a performing company and are home to Redondo Ballet, which is an audition based ballet company that puts on several original productions in the area."

"Dance 1 has moved across the street to 2228 Artesia Blvd in Redondo Beach. They have expanded to a state of the art facility which includes 5 studios with floating floors, a parent waiting area with closed circuit TV of all the studios, a student lounge, student homework room, and adult fitness classes. It is a gem of a dance studio. My daughter has been taking ballet there for a year and I just started taking the adult contemporary class. The instructors are fabulous, especially Francesca, the owner. The whole studio is very family friendly and has a great vibe, and to top it off, is the most reasonably priced studio in the South Bay. We love it there."
