Dancing becomes easy and fun the moment you begin dance lessons with one of our friendly Arthur Murray experts. Hundreds of thousands have already learned to dance the Arthur Murray way. You do not need to bring a partner to learn and enjoy dancing in any of our studios.

You will be able to begin dancing after your first lesson. The length of your training depends upon how many dances you would like to learn and how proficient you would like to become in each dance.

We are famous for making learning to dance fun and easy. We teach four simple basic movements from which new combinations are derived.

The cost depends upon a number of factors: how proficient you want to be, which dances you want to learn, the number of days and weeks in your dance schedule, etc. Most studios offer an introductory lesson special that will get you up and dancing right away. After that, your instructor will recommend the most suitable program so that you can make the decision regarding your desired progress.

You can learn the steps in any or all social and nightclub dances: Swing, Samba, Merengue, Rumba, Cha Cha, Mambo, Tango, Waltz, Fox Trot, Country and more
