Fabulous experience - I was initially upset as I waited 15 mins as the teacher was late, but when she arrived she made the session so incredibly fun it was worth the wait. She is very knowledgeable on dance

Traditional Dances & So Much More! - What a beautiful experience! Upon arrival we had some traditional snacks and tea. Then we were dressed in traditional Thai dance attire, as well as jewelry and our hair-styled. The dances were traditional, fun, and easy to follow! The teacher was wonderful. She had a beautiful energy and made the class really special!

An excellent Thai experience - This class felt very authentic. We began by learning basic Thai customs, types of dance and the history of Thai folk dance. I loved that the costumes were those worn by dancers in central Thailand and not flashy and disingenuous. Some of the dances were challenging, but we had excellent guidance to make it an experience to remember.

Make this your very first stop on any Thailand vacation! - This was the most unique and culturally immersive activity that we did in Thailand! It was way more than a dance class! We got to be dressed in traditional Thai clothing, learned helpful phrases in Thai and background in the culture. Honestly I would make this your first stop in Thailand it helped us know the appropriate ways to greet and thank respectfully. As for the dancing it was so much fun!! Myself and my two kids had a blast learning and dancing. The dances can be adjusted to accommodate any dance level! This class is awesome for both beginners and experienced dancers! Beautiful day and kind instructors!

Thai dance - cultural experience - Started out a little awkward. They showed us to a kind of strange, but very clean and air-conditioned room up a very steep staircase. They dressed us in costumes that were not the high end items available down stairs. Once the teacher (her name translates to Gift - and she was!) got there, the tone of the class totally changed. The teacher spoke English fluently, and was very knowledgeable - she was a history professor. Upbeat, fun, encouraging, she taught us about Thai culture, customs, and dance, all in 2 hours. We learned 3 dances, some basic movements, differences in how vow and show respect to different people. She also taught us some basic Thai vocabulary. Highly recommended!

Give Thai Dance a Chance - This was more than a dance class. Upon arrival, you are costumed in a traditional dance costume, complete with jewels and headdress. Jan, the instructor offers a brief history of the various dances throughout the Kingdom. By the end of the class you will be dancing and performing Thai dance! I highly recommend this class, bring your phone to record your dancing! So much fun and appropriate for all ages.

A unique and authentic Experience - This was a great cultural experience, our instructor was very knowledgeable in the history of thailand and taught us many things, she was also able to speak many languages very well. When we arrived we were put into traditional clothing and hair, we then learned about the culture and and basic movements which we then put into dance. We were able to take many photos and videos and given snacks!

Worth the experience! - This experience was very good and authentic. The instructor was very knowledgeable and educated us on certain Thai customs. She was nice and patient! The space is small and intimate. We were met with light refreshments! My family and I thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and couldn't stop showing our family and friends the new dance moves we learned! Great value for our money!

Fun, Memorable and Interesting Solo session - Had a truly memorable time learning with Ms Jenny, she shared on the provincial dances available across Thailand and explained the differences which was really interesting. The most thoughtful part was Ms Jenny catering the session based on the participant’s capabilities. Being a dancer myself, she was able to teach more in-depth and give me more challenging movements which I thoroughly enjoy Will recommended to others and might come back myself for more

A fabulous experience even for the reluctant! - This was my favorite activity in our week in Bangkok. My husband and teen daughter reluctantly came with me, but ended up having a lot of fun! We were dressed in authentic Ayutthaya costume, and they were able to adjust sizes to accommodate heavier adults which I had been worried about. It was a great way to learn about the cultures of various regions of Thailand and understand how the clothing and dance of each was reflecting the attitudes of each region. The dance steps were simplified for those who needed just the basics, and she added in levels of complexity for me so that we all had a great session together.
