“My daughter has been taking various dance lessons here since they opened. She loves the instructors who are all pretty awesome and great with the kids. Every summer, they have dance recitals which is wonderfully organized and coordinated. All details are professionally executed, from the costumes, to the pictures, lighting, everything. It’s a great show. Santa Monica School of Dance and Music rocks!”

“The teachers at the School of Dance & Music are incredible! Fun, cute, enthusiastic and talented are just a few words that would describe them. They work hard with our girls in dance class and violin lessons with smiles on their faces. One thing I am truly impressed with is the student evaluation that is sent home toward the end of the year. The detailed comments, suggestions and observations show how much the teachers know your child and care about their future success in dance and music.”
