Where do professional dancers train in LA?

Post pandemic many teachers started to just rent space at rental studios so they avoid paying the abovementioned studios a big % of their check. I worked as a work study at Millennium Dance Complex for 2 years and was shocked when I started understanding how much the studios make per class vs. the teachers.

My point is: it’s a good idea to keep an eye on the Instagram’s of whoever you want to train with, because often you won’t find them on the studio’s regular schedule. The choreographer/teacher will just post a link, time and location on their feed or on their Instagram stories, that you’ll have to sign up through.

But generally, it’s a great idea to start at the 5 main studios! There are SO many great classes and a very big international community of dancers that is just waiting for you to join!

You got this!
