Arthur Murray Dance Studio

I’ve taken ballroom dancing lessons for years and I’ve tried out the different studios in the county and other places that I’ve lived. The school is a franchise that relies on a set lesson structure to get you to the next level. The system works, although how fast you learn depends on the talent of you and the talent of your teacher. We had Jamie and found her to be quite good. She was spunky and had good corrections. Lesson prices are expensive, comparable to the Fred Astaire studios, but this is the norm.

I was dragged here by my girlfriend, and I tried to be the best sport I could. I have an open mind and, so we came here because we thought it would be intriguing to try a dance class — learn the foxtrot and whatnot.
Anyway, we went as part of a deal from Groupon. I dont know how much my girlfriend payed for it. My experience started with a private dance lesson from one of the instructors, which was good because I had never taken a dance class in my life. I had no idea what any of the moves are and the instructor was really nice and patient. And our positive attitude made it an overall enjoyable experience as we were cracking jokes the whole time.
After the private lesson, we did a group lesson which I was less of a fan of because other people took the class way too seriously. You basically do the same thing u do in a private lesson except in a group you rotate partners with the other participants. There was a total of about 10 people (5 couples). Much less enjoyable than the private lesson.
Anyway, I had a good time.
I would really give them four stars, but Im not a fan of dancing in general and didnt think it was fair to penalize THEM for it.
