My son absolutely loves going to the Flava Factory for his breaking classes. T-Rex is one of the most encouraging humans you’ll ever meet - he champions the next generation & encourages kids to be themselves, express their own creativity, and have fun! :) after my son broke his arm & was dealing with nerve damage, he gained SO much confidence getting back into the studio and was doing handstands again in no time! All the staff create such a positive atmosphere - 100% recommend!

My 10 year old son did his first hip hop class with Flava Factory this Fall - having done Contemporary and Jazz classes elsewhere. He loved it! The instruction is fun, engaging and positive - catering to a wide range of abilities and shyness. Highly recommend them.

I’ve been in love with Hip Hop since the mid-80s and have been fortunate to learn from some of the original pioneers of the culture. Flava Factory is Ottawa’s only true street dance studio, and it shows — the staff and teachers are warm, welcoming, and bring an incredible mix of knowledge, energy, and experience. Classes are full of excitement and unforgettable vibes that keep you coming back, while the open practice sessions are pure magic — spontaneous, high-energy, and filled with connection through dance. Every night ends with leaving it all on the dance floor. Flava Factory is more than a studio; it’s a legendary space that truly understands and honors the essence of Hip Hop culture. Much love and respect! 4EverFresH~ ~ OriginalRudesCrew ~ Fresh Format

This is a great space for kids to learn and just be themselves. Sammy and the crew are the best at what they do. Great guides and role models all around. Just an incredible vibe. If you have kids that are looking for something different than the other dance schools, this is the one without a doubt! Get Up to get Down!
