"I would without a doubt call Alejandro Rey the Royce Gracie of R&B since he truly has a deep love for the music and you can clearly see that through his teaching. He doesn't only instruct but he travels and performs R&B consistently around the country sharpening his skills. Never had a mundane class, each one is unique and you will always learn something new to add onto your dance tool belt."

"My son has had the absolute pleasure of attending classes at Paso de Oro, I cannot emphasize enough just how incredible the experience has been. From the moment we stepped foot through the door a year ago, we were greeted with an atmosphere brimming with positivity, energy, and a true love for dance. The team-moms are amazing."

"My mom and I watched their performance last week...the entire school, from young to old, danced. We loved it! I had never seen a dance school performance, and some dancers definitely seemed to dance better than the students they are - at a professional level.

It was great that they mixed adult, youth, and kids in order of performance, so they didn't give you all the young ones first or the adults grouped together. We'll be back for their December show."

"Paso de Oro dance company is the best thing that has ever happened in my life. I learned how to be confident and committed in everything I do. Folklórico is my passion and culture. Mrs. Alicia is the best dance instructor ever, she has a great personality and is very creative with her dances. She is my inspiration. Paso de Oro Dance Company is the best. Great instructors, great hospitality, and great people."

"Great dance company. Friendly and informative instructors. Nice studio. Great place to learn bachata plus other styles of dance."

"Ms Alicia is a great teacher. The kids love her. I would recommend to any parent who want their kids to learn dance."

"Steps of gold dance studio has turned me from a performer to a professional entertainer. The staff here truly cares about making you better, I've dealt with different dance studios in the past whom only focus on the group as a whole these people actually care about you individually.  If you are looking to pick up any style of dancing for fun or professionally don't hesitate to look further!"

"Love this studio! My daughter has now been in this company for a year, and she dances like a professional! The costumes are so elaborate! Every single instructor is amazing! Ms. Alicia the director is even more amazing! They have had so many great shows in so many places! My daughter loves being a part of this wonderful family and thanks to this company, Folklórico has turned into her love & passion!"

"My daughter has now been part of this dance company for the past year. I couldn't be happier. Ms. Alicia is very patient with their class. They demand perfection of their students and when the show starts, the artist and performers do as expected. They perform as professionals. I'm very happy with this place."

"My family has been with the studio for many years and now my kids are dancing here. The instructors are professional and good with the kids. My kids are not just learning about their culture but other valuable traits like confidence and teamwork."

"My daughter and I joined Paso de Oro five years ago. I can't believe where the time has gone. I have enjoyed it so much. It has been such a phenomenal experience for our entire family.

Ms. Alicia, welcomed my daughter with open arms as she is a beautiful blend of cultures- Guatemalan, Belizean, Mexican and African-American.  Whereas other studios were a little hesitant to accept us, Ms. Alicia and the Steps of Gold Studio team warmly embraced us and we have been part of this phenomenal PDO family ever since.

Our dance company is probably one of the most diverse groups in the LA area and because of this incredible blend of nationalities the dancers are AMAZING! The caliber of dancing and showmanship is out of this world. Joining this studio is possibly the best decisions I made." 

"My family has been with Steps of Gold dance studio for many years. I must say the love and passion that the Director Ms Alicia has for her students and not to mention her culture is impressive. My once very shy daughter has definitely come out of her shell, performing the beautiful dances of Mexico in front of an audience with confidence and pride. The Instructors take pride in what they teach and ALWAYS conduct themselves professionally. The tuition is very reasonable and the costumes are gorgeous! No matter what your social economic background or nationality it is a diverse establishment. I must say Ms Alicia has made a name for herself and is very much respected in the community."
