We decided to try Integrity because it's close to our home but my goodness, it is so much more than that. Hence the name, she cares about teaching technique and form. She's serious and the girls know it and appreciate it. This is not a foo foo type studio where your kids are just practicing for their recital all year and that's. Your kids will be a better dancer after the very first class. Check it out for yourself.

Parents - word of caution. Please, please, please scrutinize the dance studio and instructors. I…read morehad the unfortunate experience to be under Maria's tutelage for over 6 years. (From age 12 to 17 years.) At the time, Maria was teaching at Studio 5D. The environment Maria cultivated for her students was very toxic, degrading and belittling. The toll this emotional harm caused from Maria's negative and noxious environment was not only immediate but also long lasting into adulthood. It has taken me years to find my confidence and self-worth due to the constant berating and patronizing remarks made during dance class and rehearsal. It is extremely difficult not to start believing in the negative remarks when it has a constant presence and is coming from someone of authority. While these events did take place over 10 years ago, I cannot imagine Maria providing children a positive and healthy dance environment to learn, create and grow.

This studio cares about the kids and trains them as dancers and as better people. After only 2…read moreyears the growth in the dancers is amazing! Looking forward to seeing what they do next

Wow! What's cool urban dance studio tucked away in a simple industrial type building. Had a great…read morebeginner level hip-hop class here taught by a patient and super creative instructor. I booked and paid for the class online before attending the studio to secure my spot. This made it easier for me to come a little closer to class start time. When I got there I just gave the front desk my name and they found me in their roster. Showed up in athletic type attire and sneakers and learned a few new dance routines. Came out of this class happy, motivated, more limber, and feeling accomplished for learning some new moves. Did I say happy? Yes, just felt good all over from working hard, having fun, and getting my heart rate up. Parking is a little crowded here, but worth it for a workout or to learn some new moves. Definitely come check this place out if you are in this side of town. Great dance instructors and fun!

I especially love their focus on foundational movements and dance concepts, making it easy to learn the intricacies of the dance. They always emphasize musicality in their lessons, and we practice to music much more than in any other class I have been in. Both of them are passionate about their art, and travel around the country and the world to train from the best of the best. That dedication and hard work is seen through their classes and their dancing, as they have a firm grasp of dance and music knowledge. I highly recommend their 6-week programs, regardless if you are a beginner or experienced dancer.

Let's start with the less good- here's what I didn't know going in to Arthur Murray when we bought a Living Social- they are the most expensive of the many different brands teaching Ballroom dancing. That said, they are very very well established and have an excellent reputation in the global dance world. The per lesson price is higher than what I've seen else where but we got hooked on our instructors here and ended up staying. The sales pitches aren't my favorite but this studio does offer specials more often than other Arthur Murray studios and the prices at the Florida studios are less than they are in other markets. That said, the instructors I've had here for group lessons have been fantastic- all of them, even with the staff changes over the years. Our private instructor Frankie is amazing and we have had so much fun dancing with him over the years. He has choreographed our wedding dance and a few showcase dances. The other students here are really friendly and it feels like a family. We moved from the area and still come back monthly for lessons because Arthur Murray Winter Park is really a home away from home for us at this point. My husband and I wanted a hobby we could do together and while we've spent a LOT of money on it over the years, it's been worth every penny. There will always be more to learn. Ballroom dance isn't easy but the instructors here have been patient and have worked with us endlessly on technique, form and we've learned at least ten different types of dances at this point (rumba, cha cha, swing, hustle, tango, fox trot, west coast swing, salsa, bachata, merengue, bolero, waltz, viennese waltz, samba line dance...). There's more they teach too- there are always more steps and things to work on. The possibilities are endless. We've had a lot of fun with the Friday night parties (social dancing), the non dancing events, and costume contests over the years in addition to our lessons. Overall, if you're serious about learning to ballroom dance, I'd recommend Arthur Murray and specifically Arthur Murray Winter Park!
