This class was so much fun! The instructors did a great job reading the room and, since many of us came with significant others, letting us do the majority of the dancing with the people that we came with. They broke down the steps in a way that made it very easy to learn! My only wish was that the class was a bit longer!

My wife and I had a fantastic time in our dance class. It was laid back and fun. The steps were very simple and basic. Perfect for beginners(which is just what we needed) but another couple, who was taking classes there and were obviously better than the average Joe, were also dancing along and having a great time. I'm sure we will be back! we have even considered taking a private class.

Fun and relaxed. The space was super cute!
It was a smaller class which gave us more one-on-one teacher time and the other people taking the class were fun and chill which made the experience that much more fun. I highly recommend taking a this class for anyone- experienced and beginning dancers.

I absolutely loved being at this dance event. I had a lot of fun. I've never been to a formal dance studio. I felt comfortable the whole entire time. I would go again in an instant.

Although my fiance was very nervous to attend a group class without prior dance experience, we ended up being happy we started with the group class instead of private lessons. The teacher put everyone at ease over a few basic steps, and soon we were making progress. I recommend the group class because switching partners made a huge difference in loosening up the mood. You are able to refine your steps with each rotation so that returning to your partner is more fun and easy-going. The group setting takes the pressure off.
