From the reviews
LA Dance Space strikes the perfect balance between fun and strong technical training. The instructors keep classes engaging and age-appropriate, making young dancers feel excited to learn while still emphasizing the fundamentals needed to grow and improve.
We love our LA dance space family! The owner, Macalah, and all of her staff are welcoming and friendly. They have patience to teach children of all ages and my kiddo looks forward to dance every week! Also love the location in the heart of Watson which makes coming to dance after work/school a breeze.
We love LA Dance Space. Our Tiny Dancer is always so excited to go "dance with friends" and the teachers are so patient. I don't know how they manage to teach 11 toddlers and be so sweet while doing it, but it works. Our girl loves to show off her moves for us at home! :)
Year 3 with LADS and so glad to have them in our area. My daughter loves going to dance and is excited to learn ballet technique. All the instructors and assistants are helpful and excited to see their students every week.
Your first ballet class at LA Dance Space
Nervous about walking into your first class? Almost everyone is — and a good studio expects beginners, whether your dancer is five or you're returning at fifty. Here's what to know. What to wear: comfortable clothes you can move in, with socks or bare feet; a leotard and tights are nice if you have them, but not required, and pointe shoes are years down the road — never day one. What to expect: class usually starts at the barre with slow, simple movements to warm up, then moves to the center — follow along, copy the teacher, and don't worry about getting it "right" the first time. Arrive early: come 10–15 minutes ahead to change, find a spot, and let the teacher know it's a first class so they can keep an eye out. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.
