Welcome to Our New Miami Dance Studio

What do a bounce house, customized cupcakes, Bernie from the Miami Heat, food trucks and Mady’s abuela have in common? They were all part of the grand opening and ribbon cutting of our new Miami dance studio location.

We were thrilled to welcome hundreds of our dancers, their families, community members and future dancers to the new studio on June 10th.

What makes Mady’s Dance Factory’s new location so much better?  Let’s break down what our additional space is letting us accomplish:

  1. More Teen Classes

With multiple dance rooms, we now have the ability to add additional teen classes!  Check out Tumbling, Ballet Pointe, Jazz/Leaps and Turns, Jazz Funk, Hip Hop for 13 year olds to adults, and the always popular – Open Class with Mady!  There’s something for every type of teen dancer.

  1. Additional Classes for our Fierce, Grown Females

Miami ladies, rejoice!  Miami moms looking for some me-time or boss babes looking to work up a sweat now have more class options:

We promise those great endorphins you’re working up will carry you right through the week!

  1. Brickstone Media Photography Studio

Our professional photography partner Brickstone Media now has a permanent home inside Mady’s Dance Factory.  From recital photos to headshots and family portraits, the Brickstone Media team has a dedicated space for all types of photography needs. Plus, because we like to share, we’re opening up the space to local photographers that need to rent a photo studio. Limited dates and times are available!

  1. Wedding and Quince Choreography

Surprise your wedding or quince guests with a customized choreographed dance routine. Whether you want to break it down to your favorite hip hop song or learn to waltz, our team can make it happen.

  1. Bachelorette and Birthday Parties

Looking for a unique experience for your bachelorette or birthday party?  Book a dance party for you and your friends. Our new Miami dance studio location has private rooms for all types of unique dance celebrations.

Our open spaces are also idea for yoga classes, boot camps, and more so we’re opening up the studio to other fitness trainers in Miami looking to host classes!  The possibilities are (almost) endless and we’re thrilled to share Mady’s Dance Factory’s new location with you.

Summer of Dance

What thoughts come to mind when you think of summer? Hot weather, school break, vacations, camps, connecting with others? You can enjoy all of these at Mady’s Dance Factory because we have a summer schedule packed full of classes, camps, and events for children and adults of all ages and all levels.

Express Yourself

Movement and mobility are natural forms of expression and can convey thoughts and emotions—many times better than words. Dancing offers a feeling of freedom and joy and is a way to connect with others in ways that verbal communication cannot. At Mady’s Dance Factory, we aim to maintain an uplifting, motivating, and supportive environment where dancers experience this joy and transformation on the body and soul through dance.

Personal Development

From hip hop, to jazz, to contemporary, to even yoga, we want our dancers to explore movement in all its expressions. For instance, modern dance is a contemporary form of dance that uses the body as a means of communication through movement. Our Contemporary 2 class is uniquely designed for teens to learn creativity through moving their bodies. Developing creative aptitude helps teens solve problems, become inquisitive, and experiment. Likewise, in our Jazz class, students learn to be quick-thinkers while rehearsing the rhythmic movements and patterns in jazz. Yet, they also learn to be flexible and adaptable to change as they move to their own beat with the music.

Teams Inspire Dreams

Finally, our Dream Team and Dancing Lites are where teens foster both personal and professional skills, as well as simply have fun! Team members must collaborate with one another to build routines using a variety of dance forms. Dancers learn trust, empathy, and encouragement as they support one another to achieve a goal. Most importantly, our dancers are dedicated to not only their team members, but to themselves to learn the movements and routines. Dance inspires personal growth and achievement. The effects of dance on teens’ mind, body, and soul are limitless as every individual experiences dance as their authentic self and can use the lessons from dance to inspire their own passions.

 A Look at the History of Miami Hip Hop

When it comes to Hip Hop music, most people will think of New York or Los Angeles. Yet, Miami was once a center for hip hop culture and is currently undergoing a resurgence of the music scene. The vibrant history of Miami Hip Hop seems to ebb and flow like South Beach’s tide. A musical story that we at Mady’s Dance Factory love to incorporate into our Hip Hop and other dance classes.

90’s Miami Hip Hop

It wasn’t until the early 1990’s that Miami started to become a playground for the hip hop industry. Acts like 2 Live Crew, Luke, Poison Clan, DJ Uncle Al, and DJ Laz provided the background playlist for b-boys, b-girls, and rebellious graffiti artists. Even though these hip hop acts are not given as much recognition as their New York and LA peers, without them, you may never have had many of today’s top artists including Mr. 305, Pitbull.

At Mady’s Dance Factory, we throwback to this time in Miami by featuring break dancing in many of our classes, especially in Boys Hip Hop classes and our adult female dance class, Slay Fitness. We hope to develop the next generation of hip hop lovers and wake up the inner fan in all of us!

Miami Hip Hop Now

Due to the fast development and gentrification of the city, the Miami hip hop scene seemed to fade away for a while after the early 2000’s. Miami hip hop is incorporated into the hip hop dance classes at Mady's Dance Factory.But that brief pause in the history of Miami Hip Hop soon  gave way to today’s popular hip hop acts. Acts such as DJ Khaled, who famously used Snapchat to help his rise from local DJ on 99 Jamz to global superstardom! Now, many of the world’s top pop and hip hop hits are created here in Miami. “We the best!” Indeed.

At Mady’s Dance Factory, today’s top beats, including those with a distinct Latin flavor, serve as the backdrop for our hip hop dance classes. Our hope is for our dancers to develop into top-tier artists that can then contribute to Miami hip hop and music scenes for years to come!
