Most were younger adults (where I'm almost 50). Everyone was nice and the instructor choreographed a beautiful routine. I just wish I was in better "dance shape" to have kept up.

My partner and I started taking lessons this winter, and with Liz's help I've gone from avoiding the dance floor to looking forward to dance in just a few sessions. She is knowledgeable and patient, and focuses on what you are doing right before moving on to ideas to make you even better. Her class is the perfect end/beginning to the work week, and it seems she also has a strange telekinetic ability to attract some of the nicest people I have ever met to her classes. :-) In addition, her rates are extremely affordable and she offers discounts for taking more than one class in a term.

My main complaint about this studio is that they don't have air conditioning, so taking class…read moreduring the summer when Boston temperatures are in the 80s and 90s can be extremely unpleasant and tower fans are just not sufficient. It can be uncomfortable just to be standing in that kind of weather, let alone doing cardio for an hour plus. Honestly, this seems irresponsible to me, and I'm confused by the fact that they don't seem to be concerned about heat stroke. There are definitely days when the only reason I don't go to class is because there's no AC. I also wish they had contemporary classes (they have one "contemporary modern" once a week, which is not the same as contemporary).

The price is right, much less than other schools, and the children are taught to dance. My girls are young, so the true hallmark of a good studio is this "How are the older girls dancing?" The older teens at Julianne's far surpass the dancers at other studios, where it's all about learning rote steps. Julianne's students learn musicality and performance and artistry. I'm very pleased and look forward to staying with this school long term.

My husband and I decided to take dance lessons at Balera in preparation for our wedding. Our only…read moregoal was to not look like complete idiots - something that could have happened since we are horrible at dancing. Johnny, who is also the owner of Balera Ballroom Dance Studio, was our instructor. He was absolutely fantastic. Johnny had so much patience with us and was able to teach us the two-step, despite our lack of rhythm or ability. Johnny made our dance lessons fun, and we began to look forward to our weekly dance lessons. It is also because of Johnny that we heard roars of applause as we did every turn and twirl during our first dance on our wedding day. I highly recommend Balera to any bride and groom looking to learn a few dance steps for their first song. To warn you however, do not be intimidated when you first step on the dance floor. Balera teaches some very experienced ballroom dancers in addition to beginners. One time, when we had one of our dance lessons, the world champion of ballroom dance was there giving lessons to people who could have been national champions. If anything, by having these very experienced dancers with you on the dance floor makes you feel like you are part of Dancing with the Stars!

Learning to dance is an opportunity to learn and grow together while accomplishing the goal of a first dance for your wedding. Our qualified instructors take the time to teach not only the basics, but are able to choreograph a dance from beginning to end to the wedding song you choose." My fiance and I took the "wedding dance" class based on the offer that was provided by living social- and were taught 3 steps and the instructor proceeded to "up-sell" us. I understand that everyone's ability is different and as such what can be accomplished in a 45 min class needs to be clearer. Rather than just offering one class they need to specifically spell out that the program entails multiple classes and the instructor has no intention of choreographing a dance during the first lesson. Regardless, we had fun and our instructor was friendly and enthusiastic; i just wish the information we were provided was clearer
