I love Maria’s classes! Always really great teaching, and always really fun. Maria has made a community of extremely happy would-be ballerinas and has definitely made our years of Covid easier, more joyful and healthier.

Linda was a fantastic dance instructor!

She provided a very calming atmosphere.

It’s always nice to find a dance class that feels like a community.

Wonderfully engaging and broken down to understand. Maria is a Master and she is also
building connections by encouraging people to go out together.

Maria Osende’s classes are excellent; the classes are very lively and very motivating. She is an outstanding professional and has a lot of charisma, which creates a lovely and friendly environment. Although I don’t have many dancing skills, I really enjoyed it, and I intend to continue taking more flamenco’ classes with her.

Marel was absolutely amazing. She made me feel comfortable in class and provided great feedback and instruction. Coming into a ballet class in a studio as an adult male was daunting so having a comfortable atmosphere was perfect.

This studio is a gem! The teachers are so courteous, passionate and knowledgeable. I learnt so much this semester and I will keep coming back. The class is very gradual and organized which allows students to do their best. I am so lucky to have met great people there too

I am enjoying the classes so much - it’s the perfect mix of fun and challenging. Getting motivated to exercise regularly is easy because I find myself going over the steps at home to get them right. Having the videos to practice along with makes all the difference. Everyone in the class is very warm and welcoming.

Beautiful class! Nice that you simplified the choreography so that we can focus on technique. I have become more motivated to practice between classes.

I love this class. The individual critique is so helpful. I’ve read that sometimes people don’t want critique, but I really appreciate it – it helps me improve. I also love that Maria meets people where they are. I have trouble with some things that I’ve struggled with for months or even years. Maria just keeps on helping me try to ‘get it’.

Maria is a fantastic ballet teacher and person. I enjoy her classes tremendously. She gives the right level of feedback to improve posture and balance, which is so important for health.

Thank you Maria, for the wonderful class. I loved our dance and music (Level 2). The Summer Fiesta was a lot of fun. I really appreciate the thought and care you put into our classes and everything you do! I hope to take class with you again. Much appreciated.

Great class! It lined up with work so I could come straight to Haliente after work and enjoy an hour of dance. The short course (4 sessions) suited me perfectly as an intro to a new dance form.
