About this studio
Dance Forever is a dance fitness studio in Chicago located at 1550 N Cleveland Avenue. The studio offers high-energy, dance-based classes designed to build confidence, community, and fitness alongside a performance-focused programme for experienced dancers.
The core offering is Choreo Cardio + Tone, a 55-minute class that blends choreography, cardio, and strength training. You'll start with a dynamic warm-up, learn 12 eight-counts of choreography, then dance the routine through nine back-to-back tracks with increasing BPMs, finishing with targeted toning and cooldown. The class is open to all levels—no dance experience required. Genre-based classes run for 60 minutes and focus on foundational technique and choreography in styles including contemporary, hip hop, heels, and jazz. Previous dance experience is recommended for genre classes, though not required.
The studio has eight named instructors: Ashley Cutler, Emma Kempson, Grace Rodenbeck, Jasmine Bullock, Kyle Biggerstaff, Melanie Monnich, and Raquel Rodriguez. Each brings distinct energy and teaching style to their classes.
Beyond regular classes, Dance Forever offers private one-on-one and small-group lessons tailored to individual goals, technique development, choreography training, or event preparation. The studio runs a Dance For Pros programme—an ensemble for adult dancers passionate about performing and growing together. Dancers in this programme take classes in a variety of styles and learn choreography for performance opportunities.
Special services include wedding dance lessons designed to help you and loved ones feel confident on the dance floor, with personalised routines reflecting your style and song choice. Bachelorette parties can book private Choreo Cardio classes with customised playlists and choreography. The studio also functions as an event space available for private celebrations, intimate gatherings, and company events, fully customisable to match your vision.
An on-demand class library lets you access choreography and fitness content anytime from home. The studio enforces a 4-hour cancellation window for website bookings and 12-hour for ClassPass bookings.
