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.

The teacher is very attentive in teaching. Before class, he will help students change into Thai clothes and prepare water and Thai snacks. I was originally worried that I would not be able to understand what I was teaching when the whole thing was taught in English. I didn’t expect that the teacher knew Chinese. When he explained difficult vocabulary, he would explain it in Chinese, which I thought was very considerate. The origin and history of dance will be explained in the first part of the class, and then dance teaching will begin in the second part; the teacher will also explain the postures carefully during the study. - The teacher is very attentive in teaching.

During the study, the teacher will also carefully explain the origin of the postures and provide individual guidance. During the class, the teacher will also carefully check whether the students' clothes are uncomfortable or loose. He thoughtfully helped us adjust; he selected three songs of different styles throughout the process and led us in teaching. I think it’s a great experience! This is a cultural course that I would like to learn again during my next trip.

The BEST dance class in BKK! 🙏 - What a wonderful day! Thank you, Jannie, for an amazing time, learning both the dances and about the Thai culture. Expect to laugh and have fun! I recommend the morning class and visiting Wat Arun before the heat and crowds arrive. I will definitely come back for more lessons. Jannie has the most reasonable and affordable prices in town! Well worth it! 🙏

100% Wonderful Experience! - Loved this experience. My daughter (age 7) loves to dance, so this was just perfect. She learned about her culture and got to get a deeper taste of where we are from. Jenny was our instructor and was wonderful and patient. 100% recommend this experience for anyone. Pro tip: Bring someone not participating to take video and pictures.
