Arthur Murray Dance Center – Silver Spring

Great experience. Our teacher Don helped my wife and I prepare last minute for our wedding dance and it turned out great. Don did a fantastic job of tailoring the lessons to our individual skill levels (mine was zero) and gave us free range to decide which moves we were comfortable with performing.

Arthur Murray Silver Spring has always been so fantastic to work with. Their instructors know how to expertly handle a large group and make the learning experience so much fun! I highly recommend visiting the studio and taking lessons with them… you won’t regret it!

My fiancé and I are taking lessons for our first dance at our wedding and stumbled upon a Groupon for lessons so we decided to give it a try. The group lessons are small and intimate and teach you 2 – 3 basic moves for different dances depending on the day you go. All the instructors seemed pretty friendly and very enthusiastic about being there. From there, we only took private lessons to practice for the wedding. Our instructor was Melody and she was awesome — always well prepared for our lessons with steps to practice and teach us — we learned a simple dance in just 3 lessons! I highly recommend Melody as an instructor as she’s easy going, listens to what you need help on and makes you feel comfortable.
The only con — the pricing of lessons is a little high but this may be the norm everywhere in the DMV area. If you’re looking to learn a first dance, make sure to budget for it and check out prices first.
Dance the night away!

I just had my complimentary lesson today, with Tess and Karina; both have fantastic positive energy and totally brightened up my day!

Great staff! My husband and I started lessons here to prepare for our first dance. Our instructor was Tess and I can only say amazing things about her as an instructor and dancer! Our first dance was a hit and we had a fabulous time taking private and group lessons in the process.

When my wife and I were preparing for our wedding, we decided we wanted to know how to dance and not do the high schoolers dance during our first dance. My parents had gone here for a few years and recommended it. And just before we came, they had a great Amazon Local coupon for us to take advantage of. Since then, we’ve had our first dance, impressed a lot of people and have continued to come to classes here. All the instructors are fun and great to work with, especially Mike, our instructor. If you’re looking to learn how to dance in the Silver Spring area, this is the place to go!

This place can teach ANYONE to dance. They instructors are really fantastic and they make you feel at home the second you walk in the door. You have to take private lessons though (no options to just take group classes) and the private lessons are pretty expensive. You will definitely learn a lot though! There are many opportunities to compete at ANY dance level (you can even compete against «newcomers» if you are really new). This place is really fantastic – I would give it 5 stars if it wasn’t so expensive, so it gets 4.
