Saiffa’s open and stylish 259 square meter premises are situated in central Helsinki. Saiffa has two spacious studios equipped with top sound systems and dance floor. Saiffa’s heart, Saiffa Lounge, functions as warm-up and “hang out” space. In the Lounge you can also find Saiffa’s store. Saiffa encourages warming up and jamming in the Lounge before the dance class. This way we can get straight to the point in the actual class. Saiffa also has dressing rooms and toilet facilities available for its customers.
