Thanks so much to all our teachers and students for a fantastic first week of classes so far! We are having tons of fun and feel very fortunate to have the opportunity to do what we love every day! We’ve had a few questions, so here is some more information about our adult dance classes:

What to wear? Just be comfortable – yoga pants are perfect for any class. Please wear sneakers for BODY by Booties and hip-hop, tap shoes for tap classes, and ballet slippers (or socks) for ballet classes. You don’t need shoes for any other classes.

How to pay? At this time we are accepting payment via check (made out to “LA Unbound”) or cash only. Your first class is free, so payment is due before you take your second class.

Where to park? Parking in the lot in front of the studio is 20 minutes only, so please park elsewhere when you are taking classes. We suggest the meters on LaBrea Ave. (free after 7pm) or nearby residential streets.

Do I need to sign-up or pre-register for classes? All of our classes are open & ongoing, which means you just show up to whatever class you want to take on whatever day you want to come, no commitments! You can purchase class packages, which give you classes at a discounted rate, and are good for all the classes we offer.
