March 27 · Olga BocharovaI recently hired Arlin's Dance Spot to create a small flash mob for my cousin's 50th birthday party. Arlin's 5 dancers nailed it!!! Music, energy, dancers, performance, everything was perfect. It was the highlight of her night. They even threw in some extra surpises like a tap dancer! Cannot express enough how wonderful Arlin was to work with.
