Does anyone know of a good dance studio in Seoul? I really want to take kpop dance classes, but I already have a gym membership. I live by jongno3ga and work in Daeheung, but can travel

I don't know where to take Kpop classes... but here are studios where I personally know people attend and they give good reviews. All are in Hongdae area:

Ballet/Jazz/Hip Hop/Contemporary (I see you have "ballerina" in your name ^^) ~ I know multiple expats who take classes here:

Bumping.

Does anyone know if these places or any other places let you rent out a studio or something? Back home it would cost me about $15AU an hour in the studio alone. Do any of these places do that you think?

It would not hurt to write the studios and ask them.

Wellbeing Studio in Itaewon rents per hour:

p.s. to OP, JK Studio I gave you a link to does have Kpop classes.

If you walk from Yondae to Edae front gate without going through Edae campus you pass by Rivers Crew dance studio, one of the top hip-hop crews in Korea. Let me find you a link... okay there are just too many results coming up. anyway, you can search it yourself. i've had friends train there, and they liked it.

Hongje Station ... Yonsei Sports Club ... 5,000 a visit

K-pop classes start at 7:45 p.m. and go til 9 p.m. Not sure of the quality but it looks more exciting then the treadmill walking I do.
