My nearly 11 year old daughter and I went looking for a ballroom dance studio for her to start her dream of Standard and Latin dancing. We walked into Viva, took a look around, the studio was clean, it was modern, had two beautiful generous sized ballrooms and they were full of dancers of all ages. We knew this was the place and we never looked back! When she came for her very first lesson ever she was so excited and so nervous but the kids all welcomed her and she didn't feel out of place. The older experienced students also helped her and became mentors to her. This studio was so welcoming, before

Nice dance facility. Large lesson rooms, with great floors, good sound, comfortable facilities with a pleasant helpful staff. As an adult learning dance for the first time, can't ask for more!
