Motivo LA is a gem in LA! Beautifully designed, inviting and spacious! Love taking dance classes that are both challenging and rewarding! I also love that there’s a variety of membership options. For those who cannot commit to a strict weekly schedule try the 10 or 16 class punch card. Love Emma & Richard’s back to back lessons on Sundays! 💃🏻

One of the better dance spaces I've danced at. Plenty of room.

My partner and I took the level 1 Lindy Hop class with Nick Williams as the instructor and we had a great time! I got the full 4 week pass and my partner chose to just do drop ins, as he's a complete beginner to dance... but we both had so much fun my partner stuck around for the full four week class! Everyone was so nice, our fellow classmates and the instructor too. He was super friendly and patient, and is a top notch pro. Highly recommend both Motivo and the Lindy Hop class; my only regret is I didn't try it out sooner!

I came here for my cousin‘s baby shower, beautiful open space and I think it’s absolutely perfect for a private event and being able to make this space into exactly what you want it to be. I can’t comment on pricing because I am unaware, but from what I experience great place everything was clean. It is in the middle of a neighborhood, but it’s quiet and nice.

in one word: wow! The venue is amazing, the floor is butter smooth and the instructor is phenomenal. She was engaging, thoughtful of each individuals skill level, had complex and also very relatable ways to provide details about the class and steps + it was plain ol fun. I'm looking forward to taking more classes and trying this out (eventually) on the social dance floor.
