Massive Monkees Studio: The Beacon
4.8Seattle, WA
Ages 2–12About this program
Street and club dance studio run by Seattle's world-champion Massive Monkees b-boy crew, with classes in breaking, hip-hop, popping, house, waacking and locking. Kids' classes run alongside all-ages sessions, and a pay-what-you-can program keeps classes accessible to low-income families.
Reviewers describe a welcoming, community-minded studio with skilled longtime street-dance instructors; one parent singles out the breaking classes and Massive Monkees mentors as making her son feel at home. The room itself - mirrors, lighting and open floor - is praised repeatedly, and several reviewers call it the best-priced dance studio around.
A large share of the public reviews are from people who rented the room for parties and events rather than from class families, so first-hand feedback on the class programs themselves is thin.
