This dance studio is not friendly and I will not be returning. Some of the teachers here are really sloppy and not trained to teach choreography properly. I have also experienced rude treatment and they are not welcoming. At the end when they film the video I have been told several times to go to the back or to the side behind their favorites so they can hide me because they did not want me in the video. Sometimes they will crop me out of the video too. I wanted nice dance footage because I paid for the class but they are treating their students like this. A lot of my friends have experienced this too. Go to other kpop studios like Ruts because they are actually friendly and welcoming to everyone

I'm not sure what else to say about Debut Dance District other than deciding to go here (on my own, with absolutely 0 dance experience) was one of the best decisions I ever made. If you're nervous about getting involved, are on the fence about going because you have no dance background, or feel shy because you have no one to go with, no need. Everyone that goes here is incredibly friendly and welcoming - and that's one of the best parts about Debut: the community. Everyone cheers each other on, and you will for sure meet new people and make friends who you can hang with outside of the dance studio. I started making friends on just my second class. And there's very few feelings more rewarding than the camraderie you'll have formed with your fellow classmates after finishing learning a song. They teach every K-pop song you can think of here, balancing all the new hits with popular classics. There are class options that will teach you the entirety of the song (and at different speeds - beginners can learn a song over the course of a month, and those who are more advanced can learn a song over 2 weeks), and single classes where you can learn just the chorus. Make no mistake: K-pop doesn't come to you overnight, so you do have to practice at home on your own in between classes if you want to truly perfect the moves. Yireh is the primary instructor, and while some of the reviews say she is strict, I couldn't disagree more. She cares very much about making her students better. The way she breaks down each dance will have you immediately dancing in a way you may not even have thought was previously possible. She is absolutely incredible - and I know I speak for everyone when I say we are in constant amazement at her dance ability, teaching ability, and how she knows the choreo to EVERY K-pop song.

This is the best dance place to go to if you want to improve your Kpop dance. The learning speed is intense at first - 8 to 12 eight counts of choreography a day - but it makes you a better and faster dancer if you practice! There is always filming at the end too so you can feel motivated to do your best for Youtube. There are also separate Kpop Cover teams that you can join to further improve your teamwork, outfits, formations, etc. Debut Dance used to be called Dancejoa and it is in a discreet location, hard to find, underneath KTown PC. Sometimes private auditions are offered here, before COVID of course. Entertainment companies know that this studio is very good for training people who are interested in KPop! During COVID19, the sanitary measures are VERY GOOD. They offer online classes and in person classes for different prices. Dances are either 1 day, 4 day, 5 day, or y day classes depending on the difficulty for 1 hour a day. If you choose in perosn classes, doors open 10 minutes before class. You can bring bare necessities only and always wear mask! At the door they take your temperature and give you sanitizer. There are shoe sanitation pads as well. DO NOT ENTER THE STUDIO WITHOUT WIPING FEET ON SANITATION PADS! There is a restroom and you get a few minutes to stretch on your own. Trust the teacher, usually Yireh, to go over the difficult parts a few times for beginners, so do not worry! Have fun and try your best!

I can’t recommend this K-pop dance studio enough! If you come here even once, I guarantee you’ll become loyal to this studio. It’s hands down the best place to learn, grow, and connect with others.

The best kpop studio in Los Angeles and possibly all of US and other counties where I’ve lived. This place always has the latest choreos like one week after the song comes out. They also have re-run of popular choreos like Dynamite from BTS. Note that the class is the entire choreo, so it’s a commitment of several weeks. However, there are 1 day classes too. Students are loyal and typically have been learning here long term; they are chill once you start talking to them. A good way to make new friends.
