★★★★★Team

Santa Barbara Dance Arts is an amazing studio and they truly accomplish their goal of being "more than just dance". It is a place of community, belonging and inclusion. It not only teaches dance skills and teamwork but also kindness and consideration for others. Our daughter has participated for over five years and we are always impressed by the immense talent during the recitals but more so by the attitude of the staff, teachers and dancers. They do a great job of picking age appropriate songs and moves for smaller children and we always enjoy watching the performances. We highly recommend Dance Arts to anyone (child or adult) looking to get involved in dance!

★★★★★Robyn Wood

We LOVE this dance studio so much! It has such a positive culture that encourages strong girls (and boys), healthy body image and teamwork. The instructors are encouraging and professional. I love that when I call the studio there is always a staff person I can talk to and they are so helpful. They also want to work with your financial situation and have payment plans or volunteer trades to make it feasible. My daughter dances here 5 days a week and is in company and she's loves it so much!

★★★★★Jo Ellen Hafner

We moved to Santa Barbara in 2017 and my daughter started dancing at Santa Barbara Dance Arts in 2018. So happy we found this studio. Santa Barbara Dance Arts is the best! It is truly a home away from home for my daughter. The owner, staff, and teachers are supportive, kind, and loving individuals. Highly recommend!

★★★★★Pamela H.

My daughter literally grew up at SB Dance Arts. The studio was formative in so many ways, shaping not only her journey in dance, but also in work ethic, discipline, artistry, balancing of goals, making positive choices, mentorship, and community. We adore this studio and all the staff, and could not recommend it more highly.

★★★★★Lisa Fell

My daughter danced at SBDA for years and had the best experience! The atmosphere was very positive and supportive with wonderful staff and the older dancers helping and encouraging the younger dancers as well as each other. Her best friends came from there, and she’s still constantly dancing. Highly recommended! :)
