Artivism Dance 8204 Oak Street, New Orleans, LA 70118

"I have a heavy work and grad school schedule, but whenever I have spare time I love going to Artivism classes. Sarah's contemporary class on Saturday mornings really opened up my body to new feats that I never knew I was capable of and now I'm always rolling on the ground creatively. Tyler's Hip Hop class is also a great staple for me to really build on my foundation. I love the traveling options he gives within his choreo, it helps so much. Kyro and James also taught the Krump class and it was so much fun! Really did a great job of breaking down the basics and teaching everyone the importance of supporting each other in their self expression. I always feel appreciated at Artivism classes on an individual level. Love it!"

"I love this studio!!! The classes are so engaging and fun! The staff is very professional and knowledgeable in their art form. I enjoyed every minute of my classes! I feel so welcomed every time I take a class. They also have a gorgeous and clean studio. I will definitely be going more often! It’s also a great workout for anyone looking for a fun way to exercise! I have already recommended them to new dancers in the city! Thank you!"

"Artivism Dance is not only excellent in terms of quality dance performance with a focus on social change and justice, but is also a superb studio for learning. My experience with learning at Artivism Dance was entirely encouraging, supportive, and educational. My dance experience is beginner (I'll have a blast on the dancefloor of a wedding, but "skillful" is not the descriptor); but the class instruction has been knowledgeable, inclusive, and challenging in the best of ways. It is easy to tell that the instructor has a great breadth of knowledge and passion for their art that comes across in their teaching. Artivism has a plethora of passionate and superbly talented instructors and performers; but I can personally attest to Jordan's skillfulness and cannot recommend his Breaking class highly enough."

"Artivism is one of my favorite studios in New Orleans! They create a friendly, welcoming, and inclusive atmosphere in all of their classes. I always leave feeling so happy. They do excellent work both in the studio and outside the studio. I recommend them to everyone!!"

"My 4-year old daughter has been taking dance classes here for a while. Their format fits us to a T. We can come one week and not worry about missing if we are out of town. I also love that the goal of the classes are body awareness, fun, and movement based. We had previously gone to a more traditional dance studio where I had to pay over $200 just for leotard and dance costumes…for a 2 year old y’all. Some may be into that but I’ll never make the switch back given this option!"
