Portland Dance Exchange in Portland, Oregon

“Took my first beginner choreography class at Portland Dance Exchange this week! I've wanted to take dance classes for awhile now. This was the perfect studio as someone who has never danced before. Kindell was so sweet, welcoming and encouraging the entire class. We learned so much without it being an overwhelming process. Everyone who attended the class was so friendly and welcoming. The studio is also such a vibe! ”
