education in Indianapolis in Indianapolis: Discover the most outstanding options

Three years ago, I had never danced before, but finally decided to learn. Nervous but determined, I called Latin Expressions Dance Company. Kyle, the owner, picked up, heard me out, and immediately put me at ease, patiently explaining what to expect (class schedule, types of classes, etc.) and making me feel comfortable enough to show up for my first class shortly after!

When I arrived, everyone was super friendly, inclusive, and welcoming, and I quickly discovered plenty of other beginners just like me! I started taking Salsa classes, then began Bachata soon after, attending week after week. Kyle is an excellent dancer and great teacher, as are all the instructors there. You’re bound to learn and have fun!

What began as a nervous phone call has turned into a three-year journey I never want to end. Dancing has become a fantastic social activity that keeps me active and connects me with genuinely good people. The instructors are knowledgeable and approachable, providing excellent instruction regardless of your level. The community they’ve built is truly special and supportive.
The best part? I loved it so much that I was recently given the opportunity to teach others, giving new students the same encouraging experience and knowledge I received.

If you’re on the fence about trying dance, make that phone call or stop by! This place changed my life in the best possible way!
Bonus pic at the bottom of me goofing around after Kyle was practicing one of his many performances! (P.S. If you love performing, or even watching them, this is the place for that too!)

Started salsa classes at Latin Expressions Dance Company last June with a fellow travel nurse after moving to Indy! From day one Kyle and every instructor, has been welcoming, inclusive, and respectful.
(It’s important to note that recent negative reviews were mistakenly directed at this studio and were actually intended for a different company with a similar name.)

What we’ve experienced here is quite the opposite: a vibrant, diverse, and supportive dance community where people of all backgrounds come together to share joy through dance. If you’re looking for a place to grow, connect, and feel uplifted, this is it! I’m so grateful to have found this space 🙂

Such a great studio! Everyone here is so warm and welcoming. I have been going here for a little over a year now and not only has my dancing improved tremendously but I’ve also made some really cool friends. The instructors and the owner really care about all their students. 5 stars!

Latin Expressions is great! I haven’t danced salsa in eons, and I signed up for the beginner class. I feel like I’m learning from the best. Kyle makes it fun!

Best place in Indy to learn Salsa / Bachata! Their classes go by levels, and are a 4 week progressive series – so whichever level you are in, you attend that class once a week for the month, and then can move on to take the next level.

Included in the price, You can also take all levels below your current level.
For example, if you are at Salsa Advanced 1 level, you can take all Salsa Advanced 1 classes, in addition to all Salsa Intermediate and Salsa Beginner.
So as you advance, you are able to take more classes throughout the week!

In addition, they usually have 3-4 evening dance socials per month (once per week) and their socials are the best ones in my opinion! lots of space to move and lots of great dancers!

(by the way, the reviews about a viral video about how “an instructor didnt hug a biracial child” is NOT about this studio – they RARELY even have children in class. (i think personally ive seen like 2 children in the past several years) – that video is in regards to another unrelated dance studio in Plainville, CT…. this place is the furthest thing from showing racial discrimination)

Signed up as a Christmas gift and it’s been going great. Fred has been immensely helpful and patient with all our questions (and missteps!). Though I always thought I lacked rhythm, now I think I just needed some training.

It is my first time taking Bachata classes and I love it! It is always fun and the instructor Kyle makes sure to clear any doubt if you have questions. I recommend this place to whoever loves dance and even if you don’t know how to this is the place to learn!

They absolutely loved everything — Mrs. Faye made a great impression and put on a wonderful show!
For now, we don’t have any requests, but I’ve shared your contact with our entire team for translation services.

Malu Events Llc

LTC interpreters were wonderful to work with. They did an amazing job! They were professional and friendly. Would definitely use LTC again for future events. They really delivered for us.

I was here on Tuesday to pick up my translated birth certificate from French to English. The staff here are very helpful. I spoke with Mate Kelemeny on several occasion. He was very help throughout the period of translation. My document was use for immigration purpose. Will update my review on how it’s acceptance by USCIS. Thanks Mates!!!

Mr. Price at LTC exceeded my expectations by going above and beyond in translating some personal documents. I am incredibly satisfied with the prompt and efficient service I received. Highly recommend! 10/10!

Our church contracted for Haitian Creole interpretation over 4 session of a parenting class. It was challenging since the interpretation was remote. LTC staff were extremely helpful and patient in identifying interpreters and making arrangements. Follow up was also excellent. We were satisfied with the experience and would recommend LTC to others for this service.

Our office used LTC for the first time utilizing ASL. It was easy to set up and get started. There was no wait time to begin the session. The interpreter was professional and personable. Doug was extremely helpful with information and our account. LTC is cost effective and would recommend to anyone needing interpreters.

They sent interpreter Marcilene for ASL.

These entire thing was an absolute joke. She does not know proper ASL or proper etiquette. I had to voice for my husband a few times, she kept jumping into the conversation and when she did she wouldn’t even sign for herself, then by the end of it she said out loud, no signing “oh I thought this was a CPS visit.” Like what? How do you have no context. People need to realize how much goes into interpreting for ASL prior to just taking it on.

I called the agency to complain and they just blew me off.

If you need an ASL interpreter RUN!!!! I would give this agency 0 stars if I could

Mags gave an excellent class! We loved the pace and atmosphere of the class – will definitely book again!

This was great! I enjoyed with the instructor Eliza… she was great, patient, and gave you a lot of help… to do your own!! most importantly fun!!!! Must have a private party!

Stephanie lead our class today at Condados and it was an absolute delight!! She was very patient and allowed our creativity to overtake us :)) helpful hints and direction were a huge plus!! This is my first time taking a class and I’m excited to come back!!

Emi is absolutely amazing! I truly enjoyed this new experience. She is patient and also very positive and informative

Emi is a wonderful instructor and guided my grandma and I through the painting process. I would happily schedule another class with her on future dates and paintings.

Mags was an amazing instructor and helped us really cultivate our individual personalities into our paintings. 10/10 would definitely do it again

Great experience, I was about an hour late n Megs had enough patience to get us caught up with the rest of the group

Pottery by You has become my go-to place to relax! I have always had such wonderful experiences, whether I am painting pottery, making candles, or working with glass. The studio is cozy and inviting, and the employees are incredibly friendly and helpful! For my most recent project, Liz was so kind in helping me narrow down and choose custom scents and stickers for the candles I was making for wedding favors. She made what would have been a rather overwhelming process so simple – no pressure and no rush, with so many helpful tips along the way! Highly recommend this studio for anyone looking to tap into their creativity!

Was pleasantly surprised not only of the options (pottery, glass, candles, wood painting) to choose from but all the options within like colors and styles and extra textures and the help from the employees. First time coming and will definitely be back. The fact that everyone I talked to that worked there was pleasant and helpful to the enjoyable experience made this a great choice for my friends and I to spend some time together.

Had a lot of fun making a glass vase for my birthday. Even got a surprise little bday candle. Adult slushies were top tier and we had a lot of fun in general.

We had a wonderful time for a small group to celebrate a birthday here today! Liz was very attentive and helpful throughout the entire process, even assisting one of our group members in redoing her project after the first attempt was unsatisfactory. We painted wood signs and made a scented room spray. A fantastic time and would go back again for sure!

The owner is cheap person who doesn’t care about the customer or service at all. We spent all day decorating very nice cup to make a gift for our friends. They broke it and offered only $20 gift card. But the way they said it is $50 gift card. I reminded them that I already paid $30 for a cup so it is $20 gift card and decent place would offer better. But the guy didn’t care and say if you are not happy to do not come back. Wow that is how he doesn’t care about his clients.

We have been going to Pottery By You for years. The staff is very knowledgeable and always incredibly generous! They have always gone above and beyond in helping out our veterans as well. During the height of COVID they were willing to provide additional services for our veterans during lockdown. Highly encourage anyone interested in pottery, glass, wood, or candle making to check them out!

Had a wonderful experience here! Great instruction given on how to correctly paint pottery of your choice. Love love looooove the candle making experience. So many good and nostalgic smells to put into your own candle and make an amazing memory with. I would 100% return to this location for more!

My sister and I have taken lessons for 6 years, and I wouldn’t dream of going anywhere else. We’ve found a family here, one that we can chat, jam out, and laugh with. Mr. Mike is a fantastic teacher and always makes his students smile. Indy Music Academy has a very relaxed, open atmosphere and environment while still pushing us students to work our hardest and perform our very best during performances. It’s truly a one-of-a-kind.

The entire team at Indianapolis Music Academy is amazing. We’ve had multiple teachers help us over our time there. Each teacher truly cares about there students and helps them with great music instruction. They definitely treat everyone like family. Our children have really enjoyed their time there and have made a lot of progress in their music abilities. They even helped us form a band, which has been a lot of fun and a great learning experience. Thanks Indianapolis Music Academy!

I own a guitar repair and sales shop on the southside and met Mike (the owner of Indianapolis Music Academy) there almost 10 years ago. I know that he and his staff are very experienced and well suited to give musical instruction for a variety of instruments and styles. I recommend the Indianapolis Music Academy to all of my customers who inquire about lessons.

My son has been taking guitar lessons for over a year and we love it! He’s stayed very motivated and is continually improving. My son has ADHD and still stays engaged throughout the lessons. We also love that they have recitals and opportunities to show off what the kids have learned. The instructors are also very easy to work with.

Mike is a great guitar teacher and an even greater person. I’ve been taking lessons with him for about a year and a half now and I have to say I don’t think I would be this far with another teacher. Mike is very open to helping you learn some of your favorite songs, and I appreciate that very much. His prices are fair and reasonable for his lessons. His lesson books are easy to follow. Mike is a great guy! I completely recommend him if you are thinking about learning guitar.

Mike is a fantastic guitar instructor. Being an adult and having wanted to take lessons for a long time, I was anxious about learning the instrument and meeting an instructor. Mike was and is consistently pleasant, patient, and thorough. I would highly recommend him to anyone of any age group. I feel lucky to be taking lessons from him and look forward to what I will learn each week.

The staff at Indianapolis Music Academy are professional, dedicated and skilled at music instruction. Kids learn a great mix of music theory from classical pieces along with a variety of song favorites of their own choosing. A musical ladder system is used with trophies and award certificates from beginner to advanced stages. The program incorporates annual recitals where students are encouraged to perform in a live setting for friends, fellow students and family members. I can’t say enough good things about the program and the instructors.
I highly recommend Indianapolis Music Academy to anyone seeking music instruction for children or adults.

Staff was very helpful and instructor’s were driven, very knowledgeable and ambitious on helping you achieve the ultimate goal of passing for your state testing.

I came to the school with no knowledge of a tractor or trailer. I left with a complete knowledge and understanding of them both. The teachers were very patient and friendly. It was a great experience for me.

Went there almost 11 years ago. Not complaints. Taught me what I needed to pass the CDL test, then you go with a carrier and learn real world driving! Most of the instructors that were there when I went have left.

Me personally had some adjustment, problems that were resolved by the school and instructor’s. For the program that’s set in place is a overall great place to start your careers. Thanks all who pushed me to graduation!

The most amazing experience of my life. I am forever Grateful. Thank you C1 for changing my life for the better.

C1 has been an amazing experience I took this certification back in June of 2023, I decided 2025 I wanted to go ahead and get my hazmat endorsement, I reached out to the company, I was forwarded to Kristen!!! When I tell you she covered every avenue, updated my information in the system, sent me multiple links and emails. Made sure I had two different numbers to reach her if I needed anything to prevent this process from being delayed. Extremely patient and professional. I could not have asked for a bad experience thanks C1!!

Best school I could have ever attended. It was nerve racking and stressful at times. But everyone made it possible with their guidelines and patience. Thank you to everyone at C1, I hope to see you all in the future.

DanceWorks Indy is such an amazing place – it has a great variety of styles of dance, multiple levels so you can work to progress (if that’s your goal) or just keep from getting bored! It’s perfect if you’re just looking to move your body and have fun too ❤️

The instructors are all amazing, kind, helpful, and supportive, and the cost of classes, lessons, and workshops is SO affordable, esp. when you compare it to other studios. I’ve made multiple friends here who I also hang out with outside the studio, so it really does have a fantastic community feel as well.

It’s the perfect place for you whether you have lots of dance experience or are brand new! Their new customer deals are also fabulous for trying the most things and getting the best bang for your buck.

They have had good classes in the past but I showed up 8:05 for a 8pm class and the doors were locked and it says it’s closed?? I get starting on time but pretty unprofessional to not even have anyone at the door

This place has become my home away from home! I love the environment they’ve created, which is so welcoming to all. I’m so grateful to have found my dance works fam. Highly recommend taking any and all classes but especially anything Zoe teaches!

I love DanceWorks Indy! I’ve been dancing here for a little over a year now after never have done any sort of dance in my life! The faculty are welcoming and warm and have real experience. They put on amazing workshops and offer so many types of dance and fitness classes. If you are new it’s definitely a place to check out it’s an amazing space tailored just to adults of all levels. Their philosophy is dance works for everyone and they do an phenomenal job of representing that! Can’t wait for my next class!

My first time in DanceWorks last night for Margo’s beginners contemporary dance. I LOVED IT!!! I received a warm welcome and tour. Margo’s class was both easy to understand and follow and challenging, my legs are feeling it. All the other students were so kind. I received a welcome gift bag on my way home. I look forward to exploring different classes and returning to Margo’s class, she’s just so fun and knowledgeable.

I am so happy I have found DanceWorks Indy! Moving to Indiana has been hard and for the first year of being here I felt like I was missing something. I never thought that finding a dance studio would be what finally makes Indiana feel like home. Everyone is so nice and welcoming! I haven’t danced in 12 years and I was so nervous to start taking classes, I can be very insecure at times. During my first week of classes I had so much fun and knew I would be returning for many more! The classes are fun, all the instructors are amazing, and no one is judging you! DanceWorks Indy is such a positive place and I love that I can just be myself!

DanceWorks is my favorite place in the city. It is truly a safe space to explore movement, dance for the first time, return to dance again, or continue your regular training. The teachers are knowledgeable, encouraging, friendly, and diverse. The clientele are diverse as well, so every person belongs in the space and is welcome. DWI is quick and clear with all communication (via email, phone, and in person) and always has fun events (social and class-related) that everyone is welcome to. The studio is clean, the bathrooms are stocked with extra feminine products and deodorant. I couldn’t recommend DanceWorks Indy enough, if you’ve been on the fence and want to dance and find a loving community, you’ve found the right place.

We’ve had such a wonderful experience with this daycare since our son started in November. He has made so many friends and absolutely loves going in every day—he’s always smiling and excited to see everyone! We’ve also noticed amazing progress in his learning; he’s improved a lot with his colors, numbers, and even started picking up Spanish! Choosing this daycare was one of the best decisions we’ve made. The staff is kind, supportive, and truly invested in the kids’ growth. Highly recommend!

When I tell you the level of care and professionalism of the staff at this location is top tier that’s exactly what I mean TOP TIER! They use an app called Procare to communicate between parents and all staff which helps out in more ways than one. This is not just a daycare center they are actually invested in making sure your children are learning more than ABCs and 123s and that’s why I love it!

I have a pre kindergartener who attends and he has something nice to say about his school nearly everyday. So I’m also adding his review here as well… He says the center director Ms. Jazmyn is so funny, Ms. Jen helps him with his Spanish, Ms. O makes the best food especially chicken, corn and beans, Mr. C is really cool and he reads good stories, Ms. Tasha is his favorite best friend, and his teacher Ms T. is the bestest nicest teacher ever and she is super fun and she always has parties and she gave him his favorite cup and stuffed monkey. His words not mine lol !

This is best daycare my son has attended. We transferred from a different school and I was worried that my son would have a hard time adjusting but I was wrong. The staff have been amazing at communicating with me whenever my son has issues and when he is doing well. My son is excited to go to school and I enjoy that he is being challenged. They are truly preparing him for kindergarten.

Since my daughter started going here she has improved on communication, learning abilities and growth. She loves her teachers and the staff as well as I. Thank you for everything so far and i appreciate the love and respect giving from everyone!

This is the best place I ever experienced for child care! I love the environment and the staff they have! I am blessed to place my children where I know I wouldn’t have to worry about their day and I know they are safe and in good hands!

My granddaughter has learned a great deal since she’s been going and she is now 3. She enjoys the teachers. Good school!

Such an amazing place to send your little ones! It is safe and your babies will learn so much!
My friends daughter Zari has shown so much growth and she very clearly loves it! Can’t wait to send my babies here As moms we look for places with amazing reviews and this is that place!

I was thinking about going through the program here. I took the tour and I thought i was a great place to be. My only issue is that they allowed drug use in the facility while i was on the tour that’s all you could smell in the air. I was told that they weren’t allowed to do that and that they will talk to them about that but definitely did not want to be in a place like that. Great staff and awesome equipment

This school has really helped me find a career that I love. The instructors are very passionate about what they do and it shows in what comes out of this place. The instructors also give each student a lot of one on one time with really helps with my ADD. Overall I would definitely recommend this school to anyone that is interested in music.

Amazing program!! The teachers & mentors were amazing in helping me learn real-world audio engineering skills based on my style & interest. I was able to run paying studio sessions on my own before I had finished the 20-week program!

Since the day I stepped into Azmyth School of Music Technology I have been learning and will be forever grateful for the professional experiences I’ve had and yet to have. One on one, professional, real life, clients, national artist experience.. need I go on?

It’s a great place to learn to become an Audio Engineer, Producer or a Mixing Engineer.. You get it all.

I’ve been a student since January of 2019! Since I’ve been attending, I’ve learned key skills on production and engineering that I would have never learned off watching youtube videos. You can’t learn EQ and Compression off videos, you need hands on training and Azmyth provides that. When you’re a student you are not just learning how to mix, or set up the mics for a musician or band to record a session. You are learning signal flow, how sound travel works, proper acoustics etc but you are also networking on the business side of the industry. The tuition amount is very affordable with payment plans compared to other schools like fullsail. Learn at your own speed, ask questions and get answers. Great atmosphere, great engineers, great mentors. I definitely wish I found this school years ago!!!!

This place taught me everything I know about the music industry and sound engineering. But not just that! There’s a huge network of artists, producers and engineers that makes for a great environment. Teachers are personable and understanding and the equipment is top notch. Todo el amor pa azmyth!

Great program and great instructors. The 20 week program gives you plenty of hands on experience and time to learn.

We had an amazing time at Painting with a Twist for our team outing! Hannia, our instructor, was absolutely fantastic, she created such a fun and welcoming environment that made everyone feel comfortable and excited to paint. Her instructions were clear and easy to follow, which helped us all create beautiful art pieces we were proud to take home. Highly recommend for any group event or just a fun night out!

I booked a 2 hour session to spend a winter weekend with my friends. Painting with a twist is in a very popular location at Carmel. You will find options to eat right before or after and also shop so it’s a good plan to spend a few hours there.
Neeha our instructor was great and we enjoyed trying our hand at making a bunch of flowers in a vase. They also have a small bar where you can get some drinks, soda and water.
A birthday party was happening simultaneously in a room within which was pretty cool. I love places that offer something for everyone. Do check it out!

I purchased a kit that was 4 for the cost of 5. When ordering each painting was a different picture. It was initially to go to the studio, my granddaughter had to attend a science fair at late notice, so I called and the let me have time to make another appointment for the studio. Since I was having a hard time making schedules meet I changed over to paint at home. I had to buy easels to do this. When my son went to pickup the order, they had everything set up for 1 painting so he went back and picked up the correct order. I was supposed to be sent video links for the 5 painting paintings but only received one link. Since then I have been trying to get the videos so I could do the paintings. I was informed that I should have purchased each portrait separately to allow me to do this. I was told they would have to contact corporate to get permission. I have since been waiting quite sometime and with multiple emails and still I had not been given the links. The last email was a request for a refund since the portraits cannot be done without the videos, I have not heard back.

We had a sister visiting from the west coast and decided to try this place out. We were pleasantly surprised that our paintings turned out really well. The instructor was patient and fun and we had a great time! Will definitely book again.

Me and my daughter did the at home package and then went in and did the class version last night. It was a great experience to share with her as we both love art and it’s our thing we do together. Would definitely recommend.

Wow, this place is great! We loved our instructor, Taylor. She was great at guiding us to our best work. She was also very supportive when we needed it. 😉 Two out of three of us are way better at spreadsheets than art but that didn’t matter. It was really fun and worked parts of our brain that we didn’t know we had!

Wife and I have attended several classes, two taught by Taylor, and a few by others. All the artists are knowledgeable, engaging, and encouraging. Even if you, like me, are artistically challenged, this is an awesome time. Great Date Night!
