This studio has the identical owners as to the other review I posted. I've been here twice, and…read morethey had a few of the same instructors at both studios. This studio is divided in two by the staircase that comes up through the level below to their main entrance. This significantly cuts into the floor space, leaving it more like a small studio with two separate rooms. This can be a good thing if you're the only lesson going on, but if you aren't... be prepared to experience what it's like navigating a crowded dance floor. Both good and bad components to it. Compared to the Ridgewood, NJ location, the floor here is in much better condition. I'm not sure why Ridgewood doesn't have as nice of a floor. Bad investment perhaps? Either way, the floor of this studio is beautiful. The sound system is OK, but it's more than adequate. Studio policy and politics, like all Arthur Murray studios, is quite frankly absolutely insane. Be prepared during your lesson to get interrogated to reveal your innermost secrets which will later be used against you when they try to sell you a lesson package worth 150-170 dollars per 45 minute lesson. If you have the money for paying way over the market rate for ballroom dance lessons, especially from relative amateurs, go right ahead. Better instructors can be had elsewhere for far less money. If you're looking to dance competitively, be wary of tons of red tape and exorbitantly expensive entry fees. In a nutshell this really isn't much of a dance school, but an expensive social club. Some of the instructors are great, and it's apparent right away which ones really work on their dancing abilities to really excel. It isn't worth the prices that they charge, however. I'll give them a 3 because I'm feeling nice. If i were crankier, it would be a 2.

Denville Dance floor - very nice as far as the feel of the floor under your feet. However its…read moreextremely small & is divided into (2) somewhat pseudo rooms by a 3/4 wall. When I was there the staff was nice - however it was clear none of it was genuine; and the intent was to make you feel so comfortable that you didn't mind spending the absurd amount of money they were asking you for, to "invest in yourself" *rolls eyes* Coming from a dance background it was clear some of the "instructors" were quite literally people who not only had almost no actual dance training, but people who came in off the street looking for a job & were essentially being trained the same time as new students! Practice parties: A joke. There is barely enough room at this studio to host a half decent super bowl party. The limit of smooth dances on the playlist... coincidence? These typically turned into extremely small group classes led by one of the most inexperienced teachers (and studio manager if I recall correctly) Staff Turn Over: Common occurrence. Sign of poor management? Sing of poor work atmosphere? Sign of poor pay? All of the above? The owners of this studio own all of the north jersey studios so we can only assume the same problems exist internally at the other locations. Not all Arthur Murray studios are in a failing state. I suggest if you're looking to learn how to social dance and want to check out an Arthur Murray, check out a few locations. The feel and atmosphere of where you're dancing is just as important as what you're learning. An over all experience. If you're looking to learn how to dance at a competition level/professional level, check out Fred Astaire.

From clients to the employees, you could just tell how nice everyone was. I was really nervous, but the employees all knew my name, remembered conversations I had over the phone, and it was just such a different experience. The instructor Tamara was amazing. So knowledgeable, no judgement at all and super encouraging. I love that she took her time with each person to correct their form and really make sure that you weren't going to hurt yourself. I ended up signing up for a 3 month membership because I felt so comfortable and I wanted to see if I could Really push myself these next 3 months. I'm looking forward to more classes!

I was a…read morebit hesitant because I knew it was going to be expensive (at least more expensive than what I was used to where I used to live in Queens, NY) but it is SO worth it. I literally revolve my life around the classes at PB. I feel so incomplete without it! Each and every one in the instructors are amazing. When I met them for the first time, they really take the time out to learn your name and it makes you feel "seen" and comfortable. The whole atmosphere is so welcoming from when you walk into the studio and at the barre. They make sure that your form is correct so you don't injure yourself and even explain in class what moves focus on what muscle groups of your body! There are so many "Challenges" that you can sign up for and everyone cheers each other on! I love this PB family! Shout out to: Michelle, Tamara, Brannagh, Carly, Gioia.. just because it works out with my schedule, I've taken their classes the most! However, EVERY SINGLE ONE of the instructors are amazing!! And the owner, Beth, also teaches classes too! You won't regret coming here. I've told many friends and colleagues to join PB Denville.

Another reviewer said they had a hard time getting to know the people there but I've had nothing but a good experience and think the office staff and teachers are very friendly and would do anything to make the students and their families feel comfortable.
