dance2b

I have been attending this studio for over a year and a half and it is one of my favorite studios in Denver. I love that the classes cater to adults only; you don’t want to be 30 years old and walk into a hip hop class with all teenage girls (if you’ve been there, you know, it’s a very uncomfortable feeling). The owner, Jen, is amazing!!! I’m constantly seeing her making contact with each of the people that come in and really engaging them! She makes us all feel like family. Some amazing classes that are a must try are Pi’s hip hop/​dance crew moves (Pi has a way of bringing so much fun energy to her classes, and you can see how much people love her and her choreo based off of how many regulars she has), Ali’s Half-​time Jazz (Ali arguably has more spunk and personality than any instructor I’ve ever had; plus her long list of pro-​dance accolades makes her choreo challenging and fun), Katie’s performance jazz (simply put, Katie is so creative and her class has really helped me become a better dancer), Alfred’s ballet (Alfred really takes the time to work with everyone individually with their technique, and is a beautiful dancer). The studio is beautiful, welcoming, and encourages such a positive vibe with all of the dancers attending. I will continue to make dance2b my go-​to studio.

The studio is accessible and beautiful. We arrived for class a little over 30 minutes early, so I understand that there wasn’t an admin at reception yet, but when she arrived, her focus was completely attached to her phone. She asked us which class we were there for, without making any eye contact with us, so I replied, «Is there more than one 7:30 class?» She didn’t reply to this for a well rounded minute, as she was still looking at her phone. It left a very odd silence.
I agree with the previous non-​five-​star review reviewer when she said that the owner leaves something to be desired. I called prior to arriving and she doesn’t answer the phone «dance 2 b» she says, «this is Jennifer.» This is very confusing for the client. I asked if there were any first time client specials and there weren’t for drop in. She told me about the student discount but genuinely seemed displeased to lose the money.
We tried Dance Crew Moves. Pi was our instructor. I’m adding a third star from two because she was the nicest person we met there. Her class is listed as Beginning/​Intermediate, but it was straight up beginning. Her warm up was too fitness-​focused for my taste. There’s a time and place for that but the class overall was pretty conditioned and could do the class without fear of injury… they didn’t need all the fitness. My biggest criticism about the class is that she used choreography from a YouTube celebrity and didn’t mention whether or not she had asked or received permission.
We left early. I would try another class in the future except on our way out, the owner saw us leave and didn’t seem even remotely interesred in checking in with us, just followed us out with judging eyes :(
Cool space, stupid name, weird service. We won’t be returning.

I am grateful to have found this studio via Groupon in January! Once I used up my Groupon passes I took advantage of a sale on an unlimited monthly pass and have been addicted ever since! I grew up taking dance lessons and had been thinking of getting back into it, but I felt intimidated and out of shape. Jenn at dance2b encouraged me to try some of the Intermediate classes anyway and I am very happy to be dancing again! The teachers do a great job of encouraging everyone and tailoring classes to those who arrive to this drop-​in style studio. No matter the experience level of the dancer, or how long it’s been, classes are always fun and a great workout.

Great instructors, beautiful studio! As a recent transplant from NYC, I was so happy to find a studio with a similar vibe to those in the city. Dance2B has lots of classes for beginners as well as more advanced classes for trained dancers. My fav class is Caroline’s Theatre Dance on Monday nights. Couldn’t be happier!

Everything about the UJam class is amazing (which prompted that 1 extra star) but honestly the lady who runs this studio leaves something to be desired. As a paying customer, I don’t really care what you’re making on me per class. I also don’t care how much money you lose when I claim my groupon offer. Not really appropriate to talk about and if you hate groupon so much, don’t use their service. I would have signed up for a membership but after that conversation I let the groupon expire without using all of my punches and decided to find a new studio. No thanks.

I love going to Dance 2b! At first I was skeptical because there was no barre in my ballet class but the teacher made do and it was such a fun class! The drop in prices are really expensive but the price is manageable if you buy a package (or a Groupon).
I also really like that they have cubbies in the studio so that you’re not leaving your valuables out in the open unguarded– they are in the same room as you. My boots got stolen at Core Power Yoga this year so I’m pretty sensitive about this issue!
My only complaint is that a lot of the classes I would LOVE to take are during the day M-​F and I can’t make it because of work. Hopefully their schedule will expand.

Best adult dance studio in Denver! I can’t say enough about this studio. Everything from the friendly, helpful staff to the cleanliness is superb. It’s easy to sign up for classes online and they cater to adults only which is refreshing. The dance instructors are amazing! I’m very much a beginner and I always feel comfortable in any class. Everything from hip hop to ballroom! Check it out!
