3 Best Dance Schools in Phoenix, AZ

My husband and I scheduled some private lessons at this studio to prepare for our first dance at our wedding. I had been here a few times before for swing night, but it was my husbands first time taking a dance class. The instructor we got paired with, Yoshi, was wonderful! She really took the time to patiently explain all of the steps and made it super simple to learn! Our first dance was beautiful and my husband and I had a great time learning some new moves. Thanks for everything, Yoshi.

Me and my boyfriend have been learning Spanish dancing with Zak, he is a wonderful instructor!!! Also he is gorgeous to look at!! He knows everything ballroom, cumbia, salsa, everything. We have learned so much from him plus he is a breath of fresh air so fun and charming. Highly recommend him you won’t regret it.

This place is awesome! Just a great energy and everyone is just there to learn how to dance, or dance better. Even if it's your first time you'll have a total blast. We can't decide if we like Tuesday's East Coast Swing class better, or Sunday's. We might just do both.

Royal Dance Works has been "second home" for my girls for many years. They love the studio, teachers, classes - everything! They would not want to move to any other studios in the valley, and that speaks for itself! Being part of RDW competitive teams is a big commitment, lots of extra rehearsals and hard work, but it is NOT "overly-competitive" and "cut-throat", girls are still having lots of fun, building strong team bonds and friendships. We love that vibe and atmosphere! I felt compelled to leave my review after reading this horrible negative 1 star post. Not sure what exactly happened there, but I've been working with RDW for many years, and I know how hard they work to make everyone happy, but it is just impossible. :) Just like any other dance studios, RDW has certain policies - attendance, behavior in classes, auditions for teams, classes placements based on different skill levels... Sometimes you do not get what you want, or your child is not placed in the class/level you want them to (I've been there, I know how it feels :))... but it is not a reason to leave horrible review full of threats and awful accusations. We all came here for the great and intense dance training, not babysitting, and it comes with rules (like it or not). RDW staff was always very supportive, and we've never had any communication problems when we had questions or concerns.

My daughter has attended classes at Royal Dance Works since she was 3 years old. She is now 13. The teachers at Royal are excellent. They are talented dancers and choreographers, and they are very aware of how to teach children. They have high expectations, but are also very caring and helpful. Communication at Royal can be improved upon, but with the quality of dance instruction and experiences dancers have there, communication is only a minor issue.

My stepdaughter recently started going to RDW after leaving another dance studio she had attended for many years. It is AWESOME to hear her talk about what she has learned in the short time being there. Its great to see she has a new passion for dance. RDW you guys are GREAT.
