A true second home for my daughter! This is my daughter’s fifth year dancing at West Coast Dance, and I couldn’t be more grateful for this studio. She spends over 15 hours a week here and still looks forward to every class! The friendships she’s made and the bond she has with her teacher are so special — they’ve helped her grow not just as a dancer, but as a person. She’s now in her third year on the dance team, and what really stands out about West Coast Dance is how supportive and down-to-earth the environment is. It’s not the ultra-competitive vibe you sometimes find elsewhere — the dancers genuinely cheer each other on, celebrate each other’s wins, and lift each other up. If you’re looking for a studio where your child can learn excellent technique, feel encouraged, and truly belong, West Coast Dance is it.

West Coast Dance Complex is an amazing studio! I've been dancing with them for 5 or 6 years now and I love everything about it. The teachers are awesome. The are friendly and supportive, but they also push you just the right amount. The dancers at the studio are super fun and supportive too - no drama here ... I've made some really good friends over the past few years. WCDC offer a ton of classes across all different types of dance including Pom. I'm a part of Team and also a part of Ballet Academy and I enjoy both. They also have a new leadership program where students can serve as demonstrators and/or Teaching Assistants (depending on age and level) which is a great opportunity. If you haven't already been, stop by and do a Free Trial week - you won't be disappointed!

West Coast Dance Complex has been the most amazing experience for my daughter! Ms. Shelbi, Ms. Emily and, really, every single teacher she has interacted with at West Coast has been both demanding and nurturing all at the same time. She has made incredible friends with her classmates and now teammates, and has made great strides in her technique and ability to learn choreography. We couldn’t ask for a better place for her to take dance!

Three years ago both my daughters showed an interest in dance. I was more than happy to add this into their schedule as a hobby. Little did I know that the incredibly talented instructors at West Coast Dance Complex would not only spark a passion for dancing within both children, they'd ignite a love for the arts as a whole. Each teacher has their own unique way in connecting with, and empowering, these young kids within the sport of dance. Each teacher blends their love for dance with kindness & compassion, yet instilling a sense of discipline and accountability. Self love, and a love for your peers, is a top priority within the culture at West Coast. Dance can be a competitive environment. A top reason that I continue to invest in this studio is that the teachers, and older more experienced students, make it a priority to instill confidence, grace, and support/compassion for the younger classes of kids. This adds a layer of community that means a lot to me as a parent. I could go on and on and on BUT I think it's clear - we adore this studio!!
