Can I learn to dance?

Dancing is as easy as walking once you are taught by an Arthur Murray dance trainer.  Over 40 million people have successfully trained in Arthur Murray Dance Studios.  There is no age limit.  Our oldest students are over 70.  Our youngest are in their early teens.  The great majority are between 25 and 55.

Will it take long?

The length of the course depends on how many dances you would like to learn and how proficient you would like to become in each dance.  However, you will be able to dance after your first dance lessons.

Is it easy to learn?

We teach four simple basic movements from which all combinations are derived.

How much do lessons cost?

The cost depends on a number of factors: how good you want to be; what dances you want to learn; the number of days and weeks in your dance schedule, etc.  After your first lesson, your instructor will be in a better position to recommend a program and you will have the knowledge to make an intelligent and informed choice.

Will I learn the latest steps?

You can learn the very latest in any or all social dances: Swing, Hustle, Disco, Samba, Merengue, Foxtrot, Rumba, Cha-Cha, Mambo, Waltz, Salsa, Tango, Quickstep, Bolero, Country Western, West Coast Swing, etc.  Novelty or fad dances are also taught.

Will I have to return each year to learn the newest steps?

After a good foundation, you will be able to analyze the new steps and pick them up yourself without difficulty.  However, many students return because they enjoy their lessons and the confidence they've acquired.

May I take the lessons at any time convenient to me?

Take your lessons any time you wish.  Our studio is open from 1:00PM to 10:00PM, Monday through Friday, and Saturdays are by appointment.

Will I have a professional teacher?

All our instructors are competent and certified.  The dance trainers selected are ones who best suit your personality.  To qualify as Arthur Murray teachers, they must complete an arduous training regimen.

What benefits do I derive?

Dancing is our first line of social activity.  Good dancing is a lifetime investment in fun, poise, confidence, improved personality and new friends.  Beyond these, dancing is a superb physical conditioner - providing fun without working at it!  It opens up a wonderful new world of togetherness and a thriving year-round social calendar!

Do I need a partner?

You don't need a dance partner.  Singles, couples, and groups are welcome.  If you join us as a single student, your instructor will take the place of your partner for your private lessons.
