B’dazzled Dancers

B’Dazzled has been a great outlet for my daughter. She started in September and so far loves it. Going on our 3^rd year and 2 classes a week Not to mention she got to dance in the Disneyland Christmas parade that was recorded

This is my 7^th year dancing at b’dazzled. It is very fun dancing at this place for many reasons. My first reason is that the dance teacher (Ms. Jamie) is one of the nicest coach I had ever met. I have made so many friends. The coaches daughter is my best friend and she asked me do you want to dance with me and I said yes. Overall this is the best dance studio in San Leandro!

I thought this studio only had kids classes so I was surprised to find out they have ones for adults too. A friend told me about cardio jazz and said I could get a free trial for my first class. I loved it! Its kind of like zumba or dance fitness. The instructor Beth has tons of energy, plays great music, and the routines are really fun.
The only reason I gave this 4 stars instead of 5 is because of the times. The class doesn’t start until 8:30pm — Its late but still worth it I think. There’s also a morning class but I work days so I can’t go to that one. If they would start earlier I would be able to go to more classes, and would give a 5 star review.

When I was little I used to come here for hip hop dance lessons. I came here hoping to learn how to dance and meet some new friends.
When I first started I came with a neighbor friend, but soon she left after a few weeks saying she felt like she didn’t belong. I continued on my own since I really wanted to learn how to dance. But then I noticed that all the girls didn’t talk to me. The teacher barely made any conversation with me. I felt really left out. I distinctly remember one class where everyone sat in a circle talking about the middle school they went too (they all attended same school) where as I sat against the wall and waited for class to begin. (which it never did, they spend the whole class time talking instead).
I decided not to attend anymore since I didn’t feel welcomed. I not sure if it was because I attended a different school than everyone else or because I was the only asian girl.
This was probably 10 years ago, but every time I drive pass this little studio it saddens me. I really did love to dance, but this experience ended the passion for me.
I don’t know how things are now at this studio. But this was my experience back then.

My daughter has been dancing with Miss Franni and Miss Jaime at B’Dazzled now for eleven years!!! She wouldn’t have been there this long had she not been loving it through these years! The studio has turned in to an extended famiy for her; and I, as her mother, appreciate the dedication, hard work, and commitment that is displayed within the studio environment.

My grandaugher has been dancing here for over a year now. Started when she was three. She loves it and Miss Jaime does a great job with the students! They play fun games to keep their interest and attention and they learn very cute routines! Their performances are always great and Miss Jaime seems to work hard to get them opportunities to perform.

My four year old has been to two other studios in the past year and finally she’s found a place she really enjoys! For that age, I appreciate the warm up to Little Mermaid’s «Part of that World» and my daughter also likes some of the games in between dance routines. She also likes watching the older girls in the class after and I see a nice community between the older girls and the younger girls. Miss Jaime is a great teacher!
