BAC provides an environment that allows each student to grow and form friendships through dance. All the teachers know their students individually and always make an effort to form a connection with each each dancer. Ballet Arts Centre provides extremely strong technical instruction to its dancers, all while keeping each class fun and engaging. While many of the students at BAC focus on ballet, there are also jazz, tap, and modern classes available. I would strongly recommend BAC to any potential dancer looking for a studio.

Kendall is fantastic!

She's kind patient friendly and extremely talented. She cares a great deal about her customers. She's energetic and has great ideas and is a terrific communicator.

We started our lessons at a different studio but it didn't seem to work well and then we found DB studios and I am so glad we did!

Between my me and my husband we have 4 left feet... The thought of the first dance made me queasy…read moreof awkwardly tripping all over each other or swaying lifelessly on the dance floor for a painful ~4 minutes as our friends and family watched on. While browsing Groupon I noticed a deal for dance lessons at db studios, which was very conveniently located for us. Of course I browsed reviews ahead of time to make sure we weren't walking into a trap, and noticed that they had several glowing reviews on here. Congratulations to db studios too for celebrating their 1 year anniversary! The owner and instructor, Kendall responded immediately to our initial e-mail inquiry and we set up a FREE consultation dance lesson with her. I may have inadvertently made her update the website since it now says the Groupon/Yelp deals can't be combined. Oops! Kendall welcomed us to db studios, which is located within the Newton Congregational Church. The private lessons are rehearsed on the upper stage, which mimics the size of most venue dance floors. For the consultation she listened to our song to determine what type of ballroom dance style would fit best and we decided on the fox trot. We had the option of another style, but it did not allow for us to move around the stage as much. During the first lesson we learned the basic step as well as the box step. (I know, we are starting from the ground up here.) She worked with each of us individually by having us follow her side by side along with dancing with us directly. For each class she took notes to give us specific points of improvement to work on outside of class. We highly appreciated Kendall's flexible hours as I often work quite late. So we've had lessons starting at 8 PM. It's great that for Monday - Wednesday she is available until 10 PM! In addition, Kendall worked with our limited budget and we accomplished all that we hoped within the 3 official dance lessons. If the Groupon or Yelp offer is still available, I would definitely recommend taking advantage of the limited time offer. Regular priced private lessons are $85 for 45 minutes. I imagine that since this is a relatively new business she is just building up positive buzz and clientele base. Otherwise there are other comparable dance studios you can contact (most of them don't post the rates) to find out if their dance studios packages are more suitable. For more details about the actual lessons, what song we chose, photos from the wedding, and interactions with the owner check out my blog. https://ratedbyhanna.com/dance-lessons-db-studios/

If you are looking for a dance class/school for your little one, I can't say enough about Bella…read moreBallerina in North Andover. This is a school that gets kids! Parents are allowed to watch class in a comfortable setting. The studio is fun, bright and adorably decorated (I'm happy as soon as I walk in). Dancers wear what they are comfortable in, no set uniforms. (You can buy adorable and reasonably priced dance leotards, shoes, headbands, leg warmers etc. right there) The teacher has a wonderful disposition she expects your child to listen, respect and perform, it isn't a problem because she is so great with them they WANT to follow in class. Class starts with a short fairy tail story. Then the teacher incorporates the story into that day's class. (Fairies? Sprinkle "fairy dust" on your legs to straighten them). They also do jazz and tap as well. Children get to wear a costume at the end of class (part of the fairy tail story) and have free dance with wands or ribbon streamers. The dancers earn hand stamps for a job well done (as well to distinguish between right and left ). Also, you aren't gouged for spring recital. You aren't expected to sell multi overpriced tickets. They also have great priced school vacation or summer themed camps. Really if you are looking for a great experience in a great location don't look any further.

I started taking lessons from Candy back in January. I wanted to try something new, so I decided…read moreto take some Latin dance classes and see how I liked it. And I have loved it since then! Candy and her entire staff are friendly and welcoming. They all love what they are doing, and share their passion for dance with their students. They have found that balance between learning how to dance and making the entire experience fun and enjoyable. As an instructor, Candy is awesome. She has introduced me to several different styles of dance, and is always encouraging me to try different techniques and styles, from cha cha to salsa to jive. I was a little hesitant at first about taking lessons, but Candy's style of teaching makes every lesson entertaining! In addition to her private lessons, I have also attended her cardio Latin fusion class. It is a great class, with options for more or less intense exercises. I always leave class tired, but I wfeel invigorated for the rest of the week! Whether you are just a beginning dancer like me or an experienced dancer looking to build yourself, Candy's is a great choice!

Taking dance lessons for our first dance was a last minute decision only because we were unsure if it would be in our budget, but everyone at Arthur Murray was SO accommodating in making sure we were still able to fit in dance classes on such a short notice! I am truly so glad we decided to sign up for what I believe was 4 or so private dance lessons with Marisa! Best money spent! We felt much more comfortable and excited to do our first dance in front of our 100 guests thanks to the help of Marisa. She is truly great at what she does, her friendly personality puts you at ease! She was great and we honestly looked forward to our classes! The entire staff was friendly from the start! Thanks so much Arthur Murray Dance studio. Don't hesitate to do dance classes here, they will take care of you!

We both had zero dance experience so would have just been happy with a few basic moves but instead we got basics, and so much more!

We immediately signed up for more lessons after the wedding and can't wait to learn all sorts of new things!

We took an intro course where Hana instructed us. She was great with noobies like us. She easily helped to break down all of the steps. We ended up signing up for private lessons with her in preparation for our wedding. Hana has a great encouraging spirit. She also is willing to provide as much or as little recommendations as you need. We needed a lot of help, so she guided us with thoughts on narrowing down a 1st dance song, a balance of a few moves to incorporate in the dance so it didn't seem too structured or routined. Both of us started off with both left feet, and we lacked confidence. Hana gave us the tips and tools to refine our dance and our aura. On the day of the wedding, we killed the dance in front of our friends and our family. Thank you Hana for giving us the confidence to dance in front of everyone and for making us look good!

She was a phenomenal teacher for us - we were a couple with 0 dance experience, lots of anxiety, and wanted a dance that left us feeling confident we could perform it at the wedding while also having fun. And we did! She met us where we were experience wise and helped put together a STUNNING dance to our chosen song that, if I don't say so myself, we absolutely CRUSHED on our wedding day. Our guests were so impressed, we felt like we were on cloud 9, and it was just a perfect first dance. Hana provided us with a zero judgement, safe learning space. So if you're nervous like we were, don't let that stop you from seeing Hana! She would record our lessons/moves and upload video content to a shared google drive so we could rewatch when practicing at home which was super helpful too. Just truly so thankful to her for teaching us how to have fun and look great for our first dance. 15/10 recommend!!
