All That Dance

My daughter and I take the Dancing Tots class in Wedgwood and love it. My daughter started when she was 2 and very shy; now she’s 3 and has really blossomed thanks to Teacher Michaela. Teacher Michaela helped her get comfortable, was patient, offered her alternatives that involved mom, and didn’t mind if she just didn’t want to do something. My daughter in turn has learned to follow instructions, is more bold, participates in groups better, and is more aware of her body movements.
I really like how laid back the school environment is. It’s all about having fun so the kids can wear whatever outfit they like. Some are in tutus and polka dot tights, some are in sweats and I love that. There’s a great play area by the café that the younger sibling likes, a Rite Aid and QFC across the street to do errands, and parking in the neighborhood is super easy.
Even though we are moving further away from Wedgwood, we’ll be coming back here to take the next Creative Ballet class.

So car nice place to take the kiddos for ballet and tap dancing. Very affordable not alot of space for parents to sit and stay but you can walk outside some leave their kids and run errands. I’m not there yet but great place no pressure for kids to learn the arts in seattle

Just finished the year of adult beginning tap, and it was so much fun.
Adults need a different kind of teaching from kids, and Maygan was just perfect. Positive, fun, kept my expectations realistic and my frustrations low (I wanted to of course learn everything in like one lessons, right?).
Only good things to say about them.

Have been taking ATD’s drop-​in Ballet since summer ’14, with two different teachers now, neither of whom lets me get away with any slipshod ballet technique, and both of whom seem attuned to each dancer’s level of skill and readiness for new material. Actual live piano accompaniment makes for pretty nice classes. Other ATD staff are pleasant and efficient.
Took off a rating star because ATD Wedgwood has no changing facilities for guys, so I have to use their spotless, well-​appointed loo to get into dance gear. Also the old brick construction is nothing to write home about: the smallish studios feel rather short, cramped, and narrow; unusable wall barres that are too low for adults; kinda claustrophobic low ceilings with fluorescents, and street windows at one end that are not opened – good for HVAC and keeping traffic noise low I suppose, but the lack of natural air circ gives me a slightly stifled feeling.
Finally I wish ATD would tack on 15 – 30 more minutes per lesson – I’d pay more! – because it seems the class ends just as I’m warmed up and moving.

Unfortunately, as the business has grown, the class sizes have affected the individual attention to the students. My daughter has moved on to a more nurturing environment with a smaller, more focused dance studio. If you are considering transitioning here from another dance studio, do your homework thoroughly.
Update: not really surprised that my review was filtered. My review is based on the 4 years my daughter attended this school. This is an honest & true review.

All That Dance ROCKS!!! I have 2 daughters who are taking classes now. The younger one is very serious about her dancing. My older daughter took only one class when she was 4 and thought it wasn’t her thing. However, she signed back up this year for a hip-​hop class and she loves it! The staff and all the instructors work so well with the kids. They always have such positive attitudes and so encouraging to all the dancers. They teach in a way that makes the classes fun for the kids and at the same time challenges them and they enjoy it!
I have always had all my questions answered and felt they took the time to look into each situation. I have liked the option to email them with my questions and they are always good about responding.
My kids love dancing at All That Dance! I am so glad we found them!

This is Seattle’s número uno spot to learn how to bust a move. Adults or kds, this is the place.

We signed up for a trial parent and tot class for my 2 year old. She loved it so much that we signed her up. This particular class (we took) taught the kids about rhythm and incorporated stories, rhymes and musical instruments. They also offer various dance classes for teens and adults. (I took a hip hop class a while back which was fun.)
There’s a mini coffee shop inside (wi-​fi as well) so you can have something to sip, eat and browse the internet while your child takes a class.
