Here’s what our Workshop graduates are saying..

“Until I found dance 101 I thought dancing was something I had simply missed out on learning. At 35, I had never taken a dance class in my life. I decided to sign up for the Dance Fundamentals Workshop and am so HAPPY I did. The workshop is the perfect combination of explanation and instruction, and the classes were really fun! Ofelia’s love of dance and her understanding of what it’s like to be an adult beginner really shows. She immediately put me at ease and was able to break down concepts in a way I could understand. For the past three months I’ve taken 4-6 classes a week and in every one I use elements from one or more of the workshops – which makes it easier. I also feel a real camaraderie with the people I met in Dance Fundamentals. It creates a sense of community and a feeling like we are in this together. Ofelia and dance 101 have truly made a dream come true for me and I couldn’t be more grateful.”

Ashley W.

“For years I dreamed of taking dance lessons, but didn’t think there was a studio that catered to adult beginners, until I found dance 101. I requested the Dance Fundamentals Workshop as an anniversary gift and it was one of the best gifts I’ve ever received. Each of the 5 classes introduced me to a basic element of dance as well as explaining the history and terminology, giving me a better understanding of dance as a whole. I feel like I was better prepared to take the other classes and understanding the basics gave me more confidence to try classes outside my comfort zone. Nowadays I’m at the studio almost daily and I joke my husband became a “dance widow” – until recently when he started taking classes with me. Now dance is something we enjoy together. I highly recommend that anyone who is interested in learning to dance start with this amazing workshop. It will prepare you for whatever dance genre you decide to pursue!”

Monica S.

“For years I passed by Dance 101 and would say, “One day I’m going to take classes there”. After dropping into stretch and hip hop classes, I realized I was missing some fundamental knowledge about dance training, so I enrolled in Ofelia’s Dance Fundamentals Workshop. The workshop gave me the opportunity to learn the foundations of dance. Not to mention more time to ask my 50,000 questions. Through the workshop, I learned new techniques and gained a newfound level of confidence. I built strong friendships among like-minded students who were in the workshop with me. After the workshop, I branched out from my hip hop classes and have taken on new styles of dancing. At age 37, the Dance Fundamentals Workshop has gifted me the chance to relive my childhood dream. This spring, I’ll be performing in a jazz piece for Dance 101’s 16th season of, “I’d Rather Be Dancing!”. I can’t wait!”
