Arthur Murray Dance Center of Gaithersburg

"Great group of instructors are welcoming and very talented. Excited for our next classes!"

"My fiance and I attended someone else's wedding a few months before ours and it dawned on us - we really have no idea what we are doing for our first dance. Neither of us were confident dancers-- I think we hoped that if we just ignored it - it would go away! :) We reluctantly agreed to look into lessons. We had no idea what to expect- but we knew that time was running out! We had our free intro lesson with Alex and he did a fantastic job teaching us. We were actually shocked that we could follow his instructions and dance with confidence after only one lesson! Alex kept us coming back. We set out to do four lessons - we ended up doing six. Over the weeks he taught us some basic moves that we could use for our song and was extremely patient with us. He is an excellent instructor and dancer - I would highly recommend him! The lessons were very easy to schedule and I often had to revise/change things according to our schedules - the studio was always very obliging. We also attended some of their beginner classes. They work really hard to make dancing enjoyable and maintain a positive attitude so no one feels shy or embarrassed. It is a very helpful environment for learning. If you are scrambling like we were to fit in some dance lessons and are not sure where to start - I highly recommend doing some private lessons here and also Alex as an instructor. We went from 0 to "I can't believe it!" We can't wait to see the surprise from our family and friends at our wedding! Now all that's left is the practice practice practice!"

"I hosted an event here for a community. Noelle was our dance instructor, and I just want to say that she is amazing! She taught the guests salsa, merengue, and bachata in 1 hour for my Latin Dance Night, then opened the dance floor to practice what they had learned. Her teaching style is so easy to follow, and she is very friendly. Casey and Sherry helped with finalizing the process and were both very kind and helpful. If you don't know how to dance, but would be open to learning...trust me, this is the place for you! :)"

"Wonderful teachers who foster a great learning environment and make the dances easy to understand. We previously had tried another dance studio but didn't really enjoy it because it was quite snooty feeling. However, this studio is different. There are people of all different ages and talents/skills. The lessons are a good pace and there are a variety of options in the schedule. Additionally, 10/10 would recommend Hugo who helped us with our wedding dance. We always had a blast with him and really enjoyed working with him."

"This is my Happy Place! I wholeheartedly encourage everyone to come to this studio whether you have some dance experience or you have no dance experience you will be so happy you did! I cannot say enough good things about this studio and all the fun and amazing instructors."
