"Melissa's classes are fantastic!! I can't say enough good things about them. She has extremely effective methods for teaching. Though I’ve taken ballet classes since I was a small child, there are many aspects that I’ve only learned as an adult taking Melissa’s classes. She even pays attention to which ways of thinking work for which students, and takes care to remind us of them! Melissa is truly an exceptional dance teacher."

"My son has been with Move To Dance for 3 years. I believe that Move to Dance is the best and most professional place in Humboldt County to learn and master the art of dance. Melissa Hinz is very professional and gives each student equal attention and opportunities. Move to Dance is the perfect place to learn dance, improve skills, have fun and be a part of a kind and professional dance community."

"Melissa is a wonderful teacher. I've taken classes from her for more than 10 years now, and she continues to be one of the most encouraging, knowledgeable, and engaging dance instructors I've had. I've learned so much about body mechanics, technique, and artistry from taking her classes. Highly recommend!"

"Melissa knows her stuff. She teaches, ballet, tap, jazz and more. She also spends extra time teaching my daughter's good form and body confidence. We love every class she has to offer."

"I took dance classes at an early age. Decades later, I am back with Melissa Hinz as teacher. She is the best. As a professional dancer, she is very impressive (Broadway and all), but as a teacher, she is an exemplary model. Her class is good for body, mind and spirit. One hour with her strengthened my body and balance. I felt great for the entire session (after years of doing virtually no movement). Her words, encouragement, humor and philosophy reach beyond movement and health. I left inspired and ready to pick up my pace on other projects. Clearly, I can't say enough good things. Try a class to see what you think."
