I researched dance studios after attending a reunion that included dancing as an evening activity. That was the catalyst that spurred me to look for lessons. I purposely looked for a studio that had floorspace larger than my kitchen, knowing that this said volumes about the stability and viability of the studio. It signified a more stable and expertly trained staff as well. Arthur Murray offered lessons at a far more reasonable price, as I could attend as many group classes and dance parties as I liked instead of being charged for these too. My instructor, Greg, is awesome! I've also enjoyed styling lessons from Robyn, who is equally gifted and talented. I've enjoyed taking group classes from Greg, Robyn, David, and Jen at Oakbrook. I've discovered that the more dance partners I have, the faster I progress. I learn something new from each one. I'd highly recommend Arthur Murray to polish your social dancing, or for that all important "couple's dance" at your own wedding.
