This place is simply fantastic. I was never before interested in ballroom dancing (and didn't even…read moreknow that's what they are doing on Dancing With the Stars) and I've never felt comfortable dancing. We started coming here when they opened in 2017 mostly because my wife wanted to. But it is impossible not to be won over by the place. The franchise owners Thomas and Fransiska, are champion dancers themselves and as mesmerizing to watch as anyone on DWtS. They are incredibly warm and welcoming and are constantly creating parties, showcases, and events to make it fun. We take most of our lessons with Klaudia who is amazingly energetic, knowledgeable, fun, and a perfect teacher who always knows just what to say to help us get better. She is a pure delight. Arthur Murray has a well-established structured curriculum with about a dozen levels (the highest being practically like a professional dancer) which requires specific steps and techniques to be mastered before graduating to the next level. It amazes me, but they can actually teach people to dance--not just the steps, but all the moves. We actually look like dancers now. The arrangement is more like belonging to a club. You pay for weekly individual lessons but are free to attend group lessons, which are offered 6 times a week. In addition, they host twice-weekly evening "practice parties" where they dim the lights and play 2-minute clips of all the different dances for everyone to dance their steps and just have fun. My wife can't get enough; she is at the studio 6 times a week. If you have any inclination to learn to dance, there will never be a better opportunity to do it than Arthur Murray Tenafly.

They were so kind from the very start and happily sent one of their instructors, Artem, to join us.

I highly recommend having an Arthur Murray dance instructor come to your next party!

They're so professional and teach very nice that you feel that you can learn. I love how they combine the private, groups and parties I really get my moneys worth and learn a lot that way. I like how they kept everything open and transparent with me about everything starting from the phone call and helped me to fit dancing into my budget. Not like the other places where I felt completely intimidated and not welcome. I just felt that they wanted to sign me up for competitions and take my money. So if you are looking for a place to learn, have fun and get a great experience like i do, don't hesitate and come to Arthur Murray.

Mariann's School has many opportunities for growth at any dance level. The staff sets high expectations for their students with focus on respect to each other as well as the art of dance. The costume selections are always age appropriate which I truly appreciate. Mariann's shows are alway set to a cohesive theme. You are never sitting through a performance just watching kids randomly dance. Kudos to this school for all it does for their dancers. --Suzanne

I worked at Maywood Dance Center for 11 years and have always recommended them to everyone I know…read more As a dance instructor and former employee, I know first hand that this studio is driven by a desire to train dancers properly. While other studios are driven by greed and how many gigantic trophies they can accumulate, Ms. Debbie has always put the dance education of her students first and foremost and does not settle for anything less than that from her staff. Her preschool D.R.E.A.M. program is the best. No one is better with the babies than Ms. Debbie!

As a student of the Maywood Dance Center for 15+ years and now a teacher, I pride myself in feeling…read morea sense of family between students, fellow teachers, and especially Ms. Debbie. Ms. Debbie's unconditional compassion, love, support, dedication, time, and effort shows through each class that passes through the studio, and most importantly through our recital weekend. With another recital weekend behind us, it is evident that Ms. Debbie goes above and beyond what is expected in order to make this show a success. Despite having to run around and delegate a thousand responsibilities, resolve issues, and make sure every child remains safe, she somehow stills finds time to help with the little things like moving a prop off stage or helping someone do their hair before performing. I can't imagine many owners doing the same if "all they care about is taking your money." One thing that continues to inspire me about Ms. Debbie is her strength. She is not one to easily pass off responsibilities because she wants to ensure that every aspect of recital weekend (and throughout the year) runs smoothly and as fair as possible. Taking on the challenge of this chaotic weekend and the months of preparation leading up to it is no easy task!! Lastly, Ms. Debbie is so well-loved; she graciously passes on her passion for dance to every student she encounters. I am always in awe by how many students come up to her on a daily basis saying that they miss her and love her. Some of these students she has never even had before! That is the loving energy that Ms. Debbie gives off; I don't know about you, but that is something that is not so easy to come across today. A simple "thank you" is never enough to show how much the teachers, staff, students, and Ms. Debbie have shaped me into the person I am today. Even more special than that, Ms. Debbie gave me a dance studio that I can call "home."
