Pri­vate Lessons:

Dur­ing your one-on-one pri­vate lessons, you will receive per­son­al­ized instruc­tion that will help you achieve your goals in danc­ing. Your instruc­tor will spend the time nec­es­sary on tech­nique, styling, and gen­eral dance improve­ment. An up-to-date record of every­thing you have learned will also be kept as part of your instruction.

Group Classes:

Group Classes are an impor­tant adden­dum to your pri­vate instruc­tion. They give you the oppor­tu­nity to dance with a vari­ety of part­ners, develop good dance habits, and meet other stu­dents in the stu­dio. In Group Classes we empha­size tech­nique, style, and vari­a­tion of pat­terns. You may be taught mate­ri­als that your reg­u­lar instruc­tor hasn’t intro­duced to you yet. Addi­tion­ally, mate­r­ial that has been intro­duced will be reviewed and prac­ticed for improvement.

Prac­tice Parties:

We hold sched­uled dance par­ties (prac­tice ses­sions) for all our stu­dents. These prac­tice par­ties are held on a weekly or semi-monthly basis. You will have fun danc­ing with the instruc­tors and stu­dents in a relaxed and com­fort­able envi­ron­ment. This gives you the oppor­tu­nity to prac­tice and try out all the new dance skills that you’ve learned in your Pri­vate and Group Lessons.

Medal Ball:

An Arthur Mur­ray Medal Ball is a gala dance event hon­or­ing stu­dents who grad­u­ate from one level of their dance pro­gram to the next. Medal Balls also afford stu­dents the oppor­tu­nity to enjoy their danc­ing in a fun and ele­gant setting.

Show­case:

A Show­case is a one-day event where stu­dents present dance rou­tines with per­son­al­ized chore­og­ra­phy. These rou­tines make an excit­ing addi­tion to your Medal­ist Pro­gram because they allow you to develop show­man­ship and musi­cal expres­sion along with your social dance skills.

Dance Sport/Competition:

A Dance Sport Com­pe­ti­tion is an excit­ing two or three day event that brings stu­dents together from many Arthur Mur­ray stu­dios to com­pete, at their level, in dances of their choice. This requires spe­cial­ized dance train­ing to pol­ish and per­fect chore­og­ra­phy, tech­nique, and style. The week­end is full of activ­i­ties such as dance com­pe­ti­tions, cock­tail par­ties, din­ner dances, and excit­ing pro­fes­sional shows.
