San Francisco Dance Space

My daughter has been taking ballet at SF Dance Space for 12 years now. Each year I have been amazed by how much my daughter has grown as a dancer. Ms. Laura, the founder, is an extraordinary dance instructor and director. She and her team of instructors are unique in their ability to inspire, challenge, and develop young dancers. They also care deeply about each student. Every year concludes with an incredible performance with beautiful staging. Ms. Laura is warm, attentive, hard-working, and responsive. We feel so fortunate that SF Dance Space has been a part of our daughter's life!

My daughters have been dancing with Ms Laura and her team for over 12 years. The teachers are all so caring and compassionate. This is not a movement class - this is learning ballet and contemporary with proper form and alignment. The spring shows are so amazing as she weaves not just the beginners but the older pointe classes into one cohesive story and makes a beautiful production that the girls are so proud to share with all their family and friends. I would HIGHLY recommend SF Dance Space if you have a child who dreams of being a ballerina and loves to dance. That's how we started and our girls' have only grown since we've been with her studio.

San Francisco Dance Space is a a 5 star place. I registered my daughter for ballet classes 10 years ago and I never realized what an important part of her growth and development Ms. Laura and her excellent teachers would become. I would describe them as warm demanders. The are highly professional and know how to pull the best from each dancer while providing a caring and family like environment. I would definitely recommend San Francisco Dance Space to anyone that is looking for a outstanding dance studio with excellent teachers.

My daughter has been going to SF Dance Space for 8 years. She has had many teachers over the years and every single one has been magical and contributed to my daughter's love of dance in so many ways. The woman who runs the studio is incredible - I think of her as the matriarch of our dance family. She is responsive, caring, genuine and instills discipline, but incorporates fun and laughter as well. She hires great teachers, and she knows so much about what she does, but more importantly she knows and cares about so many families and dancers. I've heard so many horror stories about dance studios near and far - I could not be more grateful or happy that we are part of the San Francisco Dance Space family. And, during COVID, SF Dance Space responded and adapted swiftly to ensure dancers were still getting training and continuing their love of dance.

I highly recommend San Francisco Dance Space as a wonderful, nurturing dance program for emerging and experienced dancers. The studio owner & director is a particular standout, providing pathways for her dancers to compete and perform in dance programs at the highest levels all over the country. The beginning classes are small and nurturing, and provide individualized attention for all skill levels. The year-end recital is the highlight that the kids prepare for all year. The choreography, costumes, & set design are amazing for a child/teen program. This is a place that your child can find their niche, community, and a safe place to grow up. The studio is like a second home to my daughter, who has been with the program and taking multiple classes a week for 11+ years!
