Helen’s Dance Studio

I have been taking my daughter to Helens dance studio for approximately six months and highly recommend this studio to anybody considering starting their little ones in dance. Helen has a tremendous amount of patience and ability to get each and every student to listen to her and follow directions. She also has helpers in each of her classes so that each student receives lots of one on one attention. My daughter loves going to dance class every week and has learned so much in a very short period of time. Look no further and give Helens dance studio a try. You won’t be disappointed.

My Daughter has been attending HDS Since she was 2 and a half years old {she’s 4 now}. From the beginning she has loved every moment of it. From ballet to tap dance she enjoyed all the age appropriate moves the teachers teach during class. I love how the kids get to «graduate» to various levels based on age and experience. Last year practicing for the annual concert was fun and exciting and the concert itself was such a fun experience for both the kids and their families. Ms. Helen truly makes this a great atmosphere for families. We look forward to seeing our daughter grow up in her studio!

Helen’s dance studio is a great dance school that teaches girls and boys the art of dancing, self-​confidence, and discipline. Miss. Helen is a great teacher that has taught my daughter to gracefully dance ballet, Armenian, and Tap. She is patient with the kids and really enjoys teaching them this talent. I would recommend this dance school to any parent. Being an alumni of Helens Dance Studio I wanted my daughter to experience all the good things this school offered such as concert involvements, competitions we attended, and most of all the lifetime friendships I created through this experience. I had a lot of choices when it came to picking a dance school but I choose Helens dance studio because I knew my daughter was in good hands with Miss. Helen.

Back in March 2013 My Daughter Ella had just turned 2 years old. I decided to take her to ballet. I had no idea where to take her so I started to Google dance studios close to my house. I came across Helens Dance Studio. I called the studio and left a voice message. 30 minutes later I received a call back from Helen herself. She was very kind and wanted to see Ella so she can bond with her prior to taking her into the actual dance session. Let me tell you Ella fell in love with the place as well as Helen. The studio does everything they can to make the children feel like they are at home. They are very friendly and care about each and every child. I am so happy that I have found them because this will be the place that I will be taking Ella for a very long time. My Daughter looks forward for her dance sessions. Every morning she wakes up she asks me if its Saturday so that she can go to dance. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone.

I have been attending Helen’s Dance Studio for 14 years and I can honestly say that it is the best dance studio out there. Ms. Helen not only acts as a teacher to her students but as a mother as well. She cares deeply for all of her students and does everything in her power to accommodate each and every one of them. I have yet to see a dance teacher who sets such a friendly, nonjudgmental, and family oriented environment and it is certainly a plus on top of the amazing dance skills she offers to her students. I started coming to her studio when i was two and a half years old, and now I am just a few months shy of turning 18. I have learned so much from Mrs. Helen and had so many wonderful experiences going to competitions nationwide as well as performing in annual concerts and other performances. Mrs. Helen’s instructions have greatly helped me and made me a well trained dancer. Thanks to her I got accepted on to the Varsity dance team at my school and have won trophies in group as well as solo dances all in first place and gold. I also got the position of being Co– Assistant Director of my high school’s dance team, and choreographed several dances for the department at my school. Not only have I learned to dance but I acquired leadership skills as well as confidence. I have even gotten my first volunteer experience here where she let me come to other classes with her and help assist her classes. She has taught me how to be patient with children and how the most effective way of teaching them would be, and I always tell her how amazed I am by her unconditional patience with all of the children. If any parent has been to the studio and has had any complaints I honestly believe it is because they wanted their child to be the number one, if not only priority for the teacher and to always be the «favorite» of the class. Unfortunately for those parents they went to the wrong place because this studios soley opperates on the child’s dancing ability and willingness to learn and be an active participant of the class. I have personally recommended at least 10 students to this studio including my younger cousins who started when they were three years old. They both took an immediate liking to the studio much like all the other children who start at the studio, and they are always impatiently waiting to go to class and learn all that Mrs. Helen has to offer. This studio is definitely a second home to me as well as many other students and I absolutely recommend this studio to any parent who wants their child to learn how to become a graceful dancer as well as creating long lasting friendships with others in their class.

My daughter has been a student of Helens Dance Studio for almost 3 years and she loves it! I love how professional and courteous Ms. Helen is. She has a no nonsense policy and it really shows. She does not nickle and dime you for everything and works with every person individually. My child learns discipline, team work and makes friends at this great establishment! I would recommend Helens Dance Studio to all the moms! They have a great tap class as well.

Helen’s Dance Studio is honestly the most family oriented and respected dance studio in La Crescenta. I’m 18 years old and have been a student by Ms. Helen since I was two. I’ve gotten nothing but good criticism from her to help me improve myself with my technique and flexibility. Throughout the 16 years I have been apart of this studio, I have won over 10 first place awards in competitions nationwide representing the studio and have been featured in a magazine for my dancing.
Helen looks at the class as a whole. A group class is a group class meaning everyone works TOGETHER. No one is separated. No one is set on a pedestal. No one is hated. Everyone works together. Helen’s Dance Studio focuses on the talent the student has.
I have nothing but good words for this studio which has served me as a second home with the best of friends and the best of teachers. I’m nothing but thankful that my mom chose to trust Ms. Helen with my dance career.

I brought my daughter here and the vibe was pretty good. She took a liking to the other dancers and the teacher was really nice. Other places were way too expensive and it seemed like they just shoved a bunch of kids in a room and tried to teach them how to dance which made me feel like my daughter wouldn’t get the attention she needed. This place actually worked with my daughter and placed her in a class based on her experience and age. I’m glad I found this place. Plus it’s near a nice shopping and dining area so it keeps me busy while I wait.
