The staff is warm and welcoming and very skilled in dance. I enjoy my weekly lessons with DeVonte and the exciting fun events. I am so glad I found this studio after moving to VB. read more

We love the staff and the place - so welcoming and warm. We have so much fun learning to dance and the Friday night parties. Andrea, our instructor, is fantastic. In fact, all the instructors are very good - Jack, Andrea, Karen and D'Vonte. Wendy and Taras make the place warm and fun. We have met and made so many friends here. If you are thinking about doing it, just do it. Dancing is a great way to keep in shape, for coordination, meeting people and all around fun! read more

I love the instructors and ease of learning. Devonte is fantastic and the process was seamless.

Love this place! Its not my first dance studio but it's definitely one of the better one. They are very welcoming and friendly, they make the effort to accommodate to your schedule. read more

Fun, great teachers, wonderful fellow students. Good clean environment. When I started in January, I thought I had two left feet, but with the help from the staff they have fixed my problem. My wife and I are having great fun and enjoying learning the dances. One thing I need to add is, everyone who ask what I think about "Dancing with the Stars". I say it's just a show, if you want to really want to have long lasting relations and fun with people, then learn real ballroom. read more

See all

I've been wanting to try ballroom dancing lessons for years but I've always been a bit intimidated by the idea of embarrassing myself in front of a group of strangers. But from day one, I felt so at ease. The instructors are sweet, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested. Wendy, the owner, always makes a point to greet us (by name) and check in with us. We alternate instruction from Chris and Noah. I can't say enough wonderful things about them. They're both incredibly warm and patient; they explain things in a way that's easy to understand and follow. I can't recommend this studio and these instructors enough! read more

My fiance and I decided to come here so we could have some type of choreographed first dance at our wedding. So, we decided to do their complimentary 30 minute session just to have a feel for what we were getting into. This place is located on the second floor of the building and they have signs leading all the way up so you won't get lost. As soon as we enter, we are greeted right away! Talk about making a great first impression because we were offered beverages and a seat on the couch. We were then greeted by one of their professionals and we told her what we wanted. In the 30 minutes, I thought we learned a lot. She made us feel very comfortable (we are in no way dancers, at all). So we decided to take some lessons with them. Six lessons to be exact. Next week is our last lesson and I'm a little sad because we've enjoyed this place so much! They do private lessons and group lessons. They even had a Valentine's day party! Even if you've never danced before, this place will make you super comfortable... like you're at home dancing the night away! read more

Exceptionally rude on the phone. Seemed annoyed that I called and wanted to drop in for a group class. Don't waste your time.

What a great experience. My wife and I are in our early Sixties and have never danced before. Our daughter is getting married and so we decided to take some dance lessons. The staff could not have been nicer or more supportive. We felt totally out of shape and out of place but our instructor, Eric, was incredibly patient and encouraging. I always felt like he must have drawn the short straw to be saddled with us but he was unfailingly upbeat. Never lost his sense of humor. Even after a bad day at work we would leave our lesson laughing. No, we're not Fred and Ginger but that's our fault, not Eric's. read more

I highly doubt that you will find a better quality dance studio anywhere in the Hampton Roads area. The owners are dance champions and carry themselves with the utmost professionalism and in turn teach their staff to carry themselves with as much excellence while they teach. Because of their background, you do not have to worry that they will simply teach you patterns; you will look good doing it. That is not to say that you won't enjoy yourself. I have never laughed as much with people and at myself as I have since attending Arthur Murray. The staff is so personable and know how to have a good time, that you can't help but get caught up in their enthusiasm and joy for dance and life in general. In short, I'm having the time of my life and wouldn't even want to go anywhere else. read more

As true beginners, my now-husband and I were a bit nervous about formal dance lessons in preparation for our wedding. However, after we used our two lesson Groupon, we happily signed on for more! Chris immediately made us feel comfortable and quickly generated a road map so that our first dance was choreographed but also natural and easy to photograph. Every time we left a lesson we felt like 1) we accomplished something, 2) we got even better and 3) we had fun! The staff are exceptionally warm and welcoming and we cannot wait to use our group lessons to learn some new dances! Chris is an excellent teacher and coach and her ability to break things down and laugh with us made our Friday night lessons a wonderful experience. I would highly recommend this studio to any first-timers who want to dance competently and have a good time! read more

This studio is a welcoming place and all the instructors are just genuinely kind. The owners Taras and Wendy Denysenko are beautiful and excellent dancers. I was very happy to work with Eric Fernandez, one of the instructors. He is an extraordinary teacher and created a beautiful routine for a performance. With his teaching skills and patience I learned every step and was able to feel ready and confident by the time to perform. It was an amazing experience, and it made a difference to have an instructor, who is also a wonderful and kind person. read more

Amazing dance studio run by a lovely group of passionate professionals. Highly recommended by my husband and I!

Top notch instruction, world class dancers and teachers make taking lessons here like going on vacation every week! Thank you for changing my life! I've made friends for a life time through my fellow dance students and I feel like I belong to an extended family. 5 stars! read more

Probably our most favorite experience of our wedding preparations . Excellent,kind, wonderful, enthusiastic staff . We have already signed up for more lessons and cannot Waite to find more fun and enjoyment in our lives through the teachings of dance through Arthur Murray ! Ps Chris is amazing! read more

A very welcoming staff, always greeting everyone at the door! They truly know their stuff and have the credentials to back it up. I needed to learn how to dance for a local Dancing With The Stars fundraiser/competition with very little experience. The co-owner, Wendy, volunteered to be my partner and gave me the confidence I needed to lead her in a difficult routine and take the win in the novice category. Owners, Wendy and Taras love and treat their clients like family and run an exceptional dance studio for all levels of ballroom dancing. read more

We are so happy we chose Arthur Murray Dance Studio to prepare for our first dance at our wedding on August 5th 2017. We went for an introductory lesson a few months before our wedding and signed up right after the session. All of the staff there are incredibly friendly and helpful. Our dance instructor, Noah, was amazing! He was very patient with us as we learned all of the moves and gave simple, clear instructions. We were able to repeat our routine many times and focus on improving any mistakes we made. After our block of 6 lessons we were given the opportunity to practice in front of an audience at two of the dance parties. This helped immensely since it meant we had the chance to mess up and get rid of our nerves before we danced in front of our guests! On the big day we didn't make any mistakes and thanks to Noah's instruction we didn't have to resort to the awkward "clutch and sway"!!! read more

Everyone was very welcoming when we arrived. Our instructor was great, and we're looking forward to the rest of our lessons!

Absolutely amazing. Worth every penny for good memories, date nights, and dance moves. I feel so much more confident on the dance floor

My Daughter and I went to Arthur Murray in Va Bch to prepare for the Father/Daughter dance for her wedding. We have limited skills wanted it to be fun and something to remember. In 2 hours Eric had choreographed a routine to the music that we had provided and helped us while we went through it. We then performed for the rest of the friendly staff, which helped us gain some confidence. We are so glad that we went to AM for help. They were very easy to work with. The dance turned out great and we could not have done it withou them. Thank you so much!!! read more
