Lula Washington Contemporary Dance Foundation 3773 Crenshaw Boulevard, Los Angeles, CA 90016

"Awesome Dance school. Amazing theatre dance and music. A lot of performance here. Very active with children and adults."

"The presentation and celebration was uplifting. The dancers were talented and amazing. We really enjoy the playing of the gifted drummers... they make us want get up and move to the rhythm of beats. A great work is going on at Lula Washington Dance Studio. Our hats off to Lula, her husband and daughter and all teachers and volunteers."

"As a former dancer for the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater and broadway musical, The Lion King, I'm thrilled to teach at the LWDT. This studio provides a wholesome environment for children to experience the art of dance. Students here can recieve a fair amount of integrity, discipline, and refinement that will carry them throughout their lives regardless of whether or not they become professional dancers. Lula Washington is a much needed treasure to the community and I'm happy to be a part of this incredible staff."

"My experience with Lula Washington Dance Theatre has been great. She cares about how the students are trained and her classes are small enough to accommodate the individual needs of the students. She (as well as her staff) train the students in such a way that their talents are individually showcased during the recital and/or Christmas performances. She makes sure the students are spaced in such a way that each parent/relative/friend will be able to see their child perform. Last but not least, her prices are affordable to accomodate parents who have minimum income but still wish to have their child receive the gifted training which she offers in order for our children to pursue their passion/dream of dancing."

"I'm writing a review response to Disappointed Dancer, who says she regrets sending her daughter to LWDT... I work with some of the phenomenal drummers who perform there and I have a couple of thoughts to share.... the performing arts are not for every enthusiastic youth, as is often proven on TV contests. Not to cast aspersions on your daughter but it may be she was done a favor in finding out how difficult dance is, whether as vocation or avocation. I hope that other parents and/or students who have other experiences here will share their thoughts, and I wonder if Disappointed Dancer was in discussions with staff there after the first rough day (I cannot imagine why they wouldn't be sensitive to her concerns). Since I've heard nothing but good about this place and LW is an award-winning choreo, etc. my rating may balance one disappointed parent's rating a little. Take heart: some of the greatest minds/talents go through turmoil to reach the top."
