Esla is an incredible and inspiring instructor. I had one of the best workouts with her! She genuinely takes the time to support each of her students, helping us move at our own pace and feel confident throughout the session.

Love the K-pop, hip hop and all other classes here! Wonderful instructors who make working out so much fun! This place has helped me pick up more of the dance styles I wanted to learn, even as an adult! :D I plan to keep going here for a long time :)

Love love love Brooke’s contemporary 2 class! She is so friendly, and her class is the perfect amount of difficulty. She also is a very talented choreographer, and her technique is amazing. I’m really enjoying all the classes I’ve taken here!

The Studio offers a wide variety of dance classes for adults: jazz, tap, hip hop, ballet, lyrical, etc, and also dance fitness classes such as Zumba, hip hop cardio, cardio fusion, 80s cardio, etc. You feel welcomed, and included, the classes are led by caring and professional instructors, and the exercise rooms are private (no weird people looking through the windows lol).

Life changing, truly. I've been taking beginner adult ballet classes once a week with Kim for about 8 months now (starting with intro to ballet, then Ballet 1). I was nervous to sign up at first, it feels like I haven't moved my body since cheerleading in high school years ago, but I'm glad I took the chance. The minute you walk through the studio doors, you leave all your problems behind. It is an incredibly supportive environment and everyone is SO kind. I am living out a childhood dream of taking ballet classes and Kim's classes are the right balance of fun and challenging. I've seen many other women with similar stories come through the same doors, nervous at first, and quickly falling in love (or back in love) with ballet. It is the highlight of my week, every week. Kim knows everyone's name, provides really excellent feedback to improve, and always has me giggling in class. I just recently bumped up my pass to 10 classes a month so I can come back more! I have also taken a Jazz 1 class with Megan and had a blast! Very high energy and reeeally fun choreography. I'm looking forward to returning for more classes with her and trying out some other types of dance within the studio in the future. I also love that there is an opportunity to stream classes if you can't get over to the studio in person. If you're contemplating signing up for classes, DEFINITELY go for it! Do it for yourself. These classes filled a big hole in my heart that I didn't even know was there, I'm incredibly grateful.

The intro class was taught at a perfect pace for beginners, yet progressed along so we felt accomplished by our newly learned choreography! I really enjoyed the class and love The Studio in Issaquah for all that they offer our local community of dance lovers of all ages and levels!

The Studio is my happy place! I never considered myself to be a dancer but I do now! This is the best community for anyone, of any (adult) age 18+, to try out different forms of dance in a safe and encouraging community. The owner Steven fosters a very welcoming energy and the instructors are simply incredible. I can't imagine life now without some of my favorites - Rizzmic with Melain, ballet and jazz with Kim and Megan, barre with Alysia and Steven, contemporary with Angie ... you can't go wrong with any class here. All the instructors are wonderful. I started mainly with barre and Rizzmic and now I'm trying all kinds of new forms of dance and loving every moment.

The Studio is a fantastic place for adult casual dance lessons. I'm a tap fan, myself, but they offer hip hop, ballet, and exercise dance classes like Rizzmic. Highly recommended if you're looking for dance/exercise classes!

This is the best dance studio in the area for adults. I've been coming to The Studio for years to fulfill my dream of learning to tap dance (190+ classes!!). Instructors are excellent, and Steven, the owner, puts a lot of love and care into providing a positive and safe space for students. Highly recommend The Studio to those wanting to learn to dance.

The Studio saved my life. Steven has a knack for pairing teachers up with students. He introduced me to Kim, who lifted me out of some very dark times and helped me come back to myself. She gave me confidence and strength and just unending support. She is also the most shining light and a teacher of tremendous talent. This is a community that is so welcoming, every moment is filled with love and just FUN. I strongly recommend for anyone looking to just move a little. This is your community!

Excellent instructors, reasonable prices, fun and interesting class offerings. Helpful to be able to access Zoom classes and we're loving our Flex-4 passes! We've attended yoga, hip hop, zumba, rizzmic, cardio hip hop, etc - Loved all of them! We really appreciate how the classes are geared towards adults and adore the community of people who attend the Studio 😊

Was greeted by a friendly face and treated with respect. The class instruction was specific, focused, and actionable especially when I was playing catch up. As a 50s adult picking up tap for performing resume building this was like coming home.

Only had one class so far, but already very high on my list because they offer intro dance classes for adults which are impossible to find! Felt very comfortable and loved that the class factored in body safety for adult bodies.

Instructor was personable, fun, and very social! Made it very fun and made the room feel very open for socialization with other attenders! Not the fanciest and largest dance studio, but the quality is A+ especially for those looking to start dance in adulthood.

Amazing classes! I took the intro to ballet with no previous dance experience, and the classes were amazing! The teacher was spectacular: instead of feeling intimidated, it was so fun to get started learning this beautiful art form. Progress was made quickly, with just the right mix of fun and challenge. The option to take the class virtually was also wonderful: both to lower COVID risk, and to save time driving! I would highly recommend this studio to everyone even remotely interested in dance!

I've been taking classes at The Studio since early July and I absolutely love it! I had minimal dance experience and was looking specifically for a place that taught beginner/intro classes just for adults--The Studio is exactly what I was looking for! Steven (the owner) is so welcoming and has created and fostered such a vibrant and supportive community. I highly recommend The Studio to anyone with an interest in dance (both complete novices and those who danced in a previous phase of life!) and to anyone looking to spice up their fitness routine.

I love The Studio in Issaquah whether I am taking a recorded video class, a class via Zoom, or a live class. They have something for everyone: beginning dance classes, more advanced classes for those with a lot of dance experience, barre, and cardio classes. All of the teachers are professional with expertise knowledge and recognize they are teaching adult dancers, especially as they are adults, too. I personally love the barre, ballet, jazz, and 80's cardio classes but have had fun stretching out of my comfort zone in hip-hop, too. Maybe some day I will be brave and try tap. There is a real sense of community and it is a very supportive atmosphere, so don't be afraid to try it. I have been taking class there for about 3 years and can't live without it!

I have been going to this studio for 3 years and love it! My favorite are the cardio classes (hip hop and 80’s) they get my heart rate up and it’s fun! The studio is welcoming and Steven, the owner, makes it feels like a family. They offer classes in person with masks (5 max) or zoom links as well.

This is a wonderful dance studio, without a doubt the best in the area! They offer a variety of classes including tap, ballet, jazz, contemporary, hip hop, belly dance, and many more. They have some fun cardio classes too including hip hop cardio and 1980's cardio! The atmosphere is very welcoming, inclusive, and supportive. The instructors do a great job of explaining dance steps so that everyone can learn and join in! The Studio offers classes three ways including recorded classes, live classes through Zoom, and in person classes with masks. I can't recommend them highly enough - such a fun place with so much to offer the community!

I have been taking dance classes at the studio for almost 4 years. After many years of wanting to learn to dance but failing to find the right place to learn, I stumbled across the studio. I love everything about it and it is a perfect fit for me. Due to multiple levels of classes full of people from all backgrounds and ages - I have never felt intimidated or out of place. In years gone by, I struggled to keep up with adult dance classes full of dancers who had danced all their lives. Here I have been able to progress through the levels at my own pace. The teachers are all experienced, friendly, fun and supportive and many have become my friends.
Since Covid 19 closed public spaces, I have been able to join classes from home, follow recorded classes in my own time that fit with my work and family schedule and attend in person classes. During in person classes I always feel safe - the studio is clean, well ventilated and follows strict sanitary procedures with classes of no more than 5 dancers.
You are never too old to learn to dance, even if you think you have 2 left feet. The studio brings me joy in difficult times - I cannot recommended it highly enough.

I love this place. I was so happy to find them when I was searching for adult Tap Classes and their classes are a BLAST. The owners, teachers, and classmates are super sweet and it’s such a joy to come here every week. I’m so glad they were able to adapt to COVID times and keep offering all classes. I’m also so happy I’ve had the opportunity to discover other dance genres here as well. I can’t wait for my next Tap and 80s Cardio classes!

This place is THE BEST! Steven (the owner) goes out of his way to personally get to know everyone who comes through the door, and even if you're new to dancing or to the studio, you quickly become part of the family. Awesome teachers, endless encouragement for beginners and the right level of challenge for the experienced dancer. Plus you can do what works with your schedule because of the drop in classes - you're not committed to the same day/time for 6+ weeks! With Covid, they flexed and adapted incredibly quickly to keep us dancing. Now you can do classes in person, on Zoom or via recorded videos on your own schedule. I work with a high-risk population (senior living), so having access to an ever-growing variety of video classes has been amazing. It's not just one or two, there's seriously probably 50 options to choose from! I'm so thankful for The Studio!

I have been a member of the Studio since 2018. I have taken a variety of classes and have really enjoyed the sense of community that is felt there! Even through Covid, Steven (the owner) has offered Livestream classes, recorded classes and small (5 ppl max) in-person classes (as phases allow). My favorite class is 80s cardio and I take it 2x per week via Livestream. Steven is the instructor and he changes up the playlists every week - and the routine - but I always get a good workout. I really look forward to attending because it makes working out fun! No matter what your skill level, there is something for everyone!

Can't say enough good things about Steven! I have been taking tap from him for 3 years. I only started tapping because a friend of mine talked me into it. She has since moved, but I have continued because Steven's classes are so much fun! A good workout, at the same time so much fun! Steven keeps it interesting, always thinking of new choreography. Don't be nervous, if you are a beginner, there is a class for each level. Steven is so kind and patient, no stress, but he always challenges us as well!
