Take the Lead is great! All the instructors are very friendly and wonderful at what they do. I have imporved my dancing so much because of them. The whole atmosphere there is welcoming and incouraging.

Take the Lead is a great place to learn how to dance socially. I went to another studio and I felt like they were training me to compete in the beginner classes. Take the Lead is not intimedating at all and the instructors are all great.
Never thought Id be able to learn to Dance but the Instructors at Take The Lead Dance Studio made it easy. Ive taken some great Group Classes in Salsa, Swing, Cha Cha, and Rumba and learned things that I have really been able to use at Clubs, Weddings, and other Social functions (not crazy stuff that I would never do - like another place tried to teach me). The Studio is so inviting and the floor is just great (huge, plenty of room to learn). Being comfortable on the dance floor has allowed me to get involved and meet some awesome people. Just got back to work after a few months off and plan on taking more Group Classes and starting Private Lessons in the new year.

I've done Ballroom Dancing for years at a number of different places but no one beats Take The Lead. They have the best of all worlds with the most talented social and competitive instructors. With many Private Lesson and Group Class options, competitive pricing, Dance events every weekend, and the friendliest staff and clientele, Take The Lead can't be beat!
Take the Lead taught us to dance for our wedding and made our first dance just perfect! We looked relaxed and natural - nothing too over the top - but polished and happy from our special entrance to our ending dip. They even built in special moves to help the photographer capture that ?kodak moment?. We did a more traditional Foxtrot before breaking into a Swing and having our Bridal Party join us on the floor. We now have great memories to share from our wedding day and great dance moves to use forever.
These guys (and gals) are the BEST! Talented, friendly, and very patient - they knew just how to get us newbies dancing without tripping over our own feet. We now have the confidence to get out on the floor and have fun. Thanks Take the Lead!

When we first started taking lessons we were a bit intimidated but everyone made us feel super comfortable. We began taking lessons for our first dance at our wedding. Our instructor showed us just the right moves to make us not feel overwhelmed when it came time to dance and we still WOWED the crowd at our wedding. It's been six months sinc our wdding and we loved dancing so much that we are still ntaking lessons at Take the Lead. Whether your learning for your wedding or you just want something fun to do, this is your place.

Rich is an awesome Salsa instructor - and so much fun. I've been taking group classes for several month and took a few private lessons to catch up when I missed some classes (they were very accomodating and flexible when my schedule was crazy). He explains everything clearly and makes it easy to learn. He can always tell you the best places to dance and the Latin Parties at Take the Lead on Fridays are the perfect place to practice and meet other dancers.

This Studio is awesome - something for everyone! We are social dancers and enjoy taking lessons and going to the dance events on Saturday. We have no desire to ever compete but watching their professionals and competing amateurs practice and dance is wonderful. They have instructors that focus on social dancing as well as those that work with students that compete and high level professional coaches. The new facility is lovely - huge floor - but still keeps a comfortable, inviting feel.

We recommend this studio to everyone! Instructors to fit every learning style, friendly non intimdating environment. Have had the opportuntunity to learn many different styles. The Saturday night dances give you a chance to practice what you learn with other couples and individuals who enjoy the same thing. Wonderful social activity.

What a great place to learn to dance! I started taking Salsa Lessons with a few of my girlfriends and we had a blast. My husband got jealous that I was having so much fun now we take lessons together. He never wanted any part of dancing but the instructors made him feel relaxed and didn't make him do any crazy steps that he wasn't comfortable with. Now we go for our lesson then go out to dinner and make a night of it - we also go out dancing a few weekends each month. Thanks Take The Lead!
