Alohi’s Polynesian Dance Studio

Dance studio

I was able to attend the Alohi performance in December 2011 and it was amazing! The show was very entertaining. It was great watching performers of all ages.

I have attended Alohi’s past performances and I have loved the way they’ve engaged students of all ages and skill levels. It’s always a treat to be taken back to the Polynesian culture in the midst of southern California. The vibe through out the performance is great and everyone in the audience enjoys the progression each show brings. I look forward to many more performances.

First, let’s get this straight: I’ve been dancing here for over a year, and the subsequent comments are from my personal experiences.
Alohi’s is ran mostly by a close knit, family-​like group of people. There are several dance instructors for various styles of dancing, including Polynesian, jazz, hip hop, and Zumba.
The instructors are kind and friendly, and class availability is offered six times a week. They perform all around OC and LA, including at many charity events.
The studio itself has plentiful space to dance, and sufficient seating to watch your kids/​significant other/​whatever. If all the couches happen to be full, then there’s more of an excuse to join in the dancing!
Every single student (dancers/​performers) I’ve become acquainted with have been kind and friendly. There is virtually no drama, and the aura is quite passive. The instructors stress perfection and may come across as strict at times, but that’s normal for any passionate teacher.
Having no basis for comparison, Alohi’s isn’t perfect; no person is; no studio is. However I do believe this is a fantastic environment to be in to learn/​improve on whatever dance you’re interested in. I really enjoy being surrounded by the people encompassing this studio, and I encourage whoever is reading this to cultivate their curiosity by stopping by this studio. I don’t think you’ll regret it!
