He fell in love with it instantly and has been dancing ever since! Isaac turned pro when he was 22 years old and has competed in both American Rhythm and Smooth!

Christa taught a small, "burlesque style" private lesson for a recent bachelorette party. She was so patient with us and created a fun and comfortable atmosphere. Not only did we learn a tantalizing routine, but we also laughed a lot. I would highly recommend Christa's studio to anyone looking for a fun and entertaining experience.

Choosing to take dance lessons for our wedding at Dance Spa was one of the best decisions I made! Christa is such a fun upbeat and encouraging coach!! My only regret was we didn't start sooner! It was kind of a last minute thought to add to our wedding but it quickly became our favorite part about planning the wedding. Yes, you're doing something for your wedding, but it was also a great way to really enjoy planning the wedding together and spend some quality time doing something fun. I also took lessons with my dad for our Daddy/Daughter dance and seeing his face really enjoying learning the steps

We called Dance Spa a month prior to my wedding day requesting them to teach us (father-in-law, brother-in-law, and myself/groom) how to dance the Greek Zorba dance... a dance they had never seen before. Christa took up the challenge and put together an amazing piece that was accessible to the various dance experience we had in our group, beginner to experienced. We met with her a few times and she gave great feedback and suggestions for us to perform the dance cleaner, and by my wedding day, she had created the 3 best Zorba dancers in Chicago! The dance was a smashing success thanks to Christa

We brought Christa in for an off-site event - she hosted a Zumba class at our office! Everyone loved it! Christa is amazing at what she does - super high energy, awesome music and choreography, and such a good workout. I've been to other Zumba classes and have never been to one that compares to hers. Her studio is clean and bright, and having her at our off-site event was great! The pricing was super fair, and she was on time and brought everything she needed with her (besides the sound system). I can't recommend her enough!

I've been taking Zumba classes at Dance Spa since January. As a recently retired person who just moved to Chicago, I was looking for a place to exercise. Dance Spa has met my needs! The instructors are skilled and enthusiastic, the people who attend classes are friendly and a mixture of ages, daytime and late afternoon classes are offered. The owner, Christa, is especially welcoming. I've always been embarrassed to dance in public but these Zumba classes have helped me come out and have fun!

I can not speak highly enough of Christa from the Dance Spa. From our first contact to organize the Dance Spa to lead our Zumba warm-up for our family-fun school event at Drummond Montessori School, Christa was only a joy to work with. She was flexible and very accommodating, especially when our initial event was postponed due to rain. She was able to adjust her schedule to ensure she could still participate in our fun-family school event. She really set the tone for a great event, the kids really adored her and her energy. She knew exactly what type of music and moves would appeal to a whole range

After reading reviews of Dance Spa, my fiance and I set a very high bar for Christa and her staff. We didn’t expect, then, that she would exceed those expectations a million times over! We started weekly dance lessons about six months ago, neither of us knowing anything about dance (we would have been satisfied walking out of the place knowing a simple box step and not tripping over our own feet). When we did complete the lessons, however, we had a beautifully choreographed, romantic, fun, first dance that Christa customized for our exact song and personalities. Like, what? And not only were

My husband and I took dance lessons here before our wedding and loved it. Christa is the absolute best, you'll have a blast with her and she's a fantastic teacher. She'll carefully listen to your song and figure out the best dance moves for you/your music. She's very attentive, always checking in to make sure everything is going just great. We ended up with a great routine, and it was the most fun part of planning for the wedding. Now we want to keep taking lessons with her, just for fun.

Christa is hands down the best Zumba instructor in Chicago. She has the best routines of anyone around and you'll find yourself wishing other classes were as intense!
I've also had the pleasure of taking private ballroom classes from her. My boyfriend and I dance, but wanted to know more salsa moves to add into our routine and brush up on our technique. It was so fun taking lessons with Christa! I'll never go anywhere else in the city!
