The parking lot next door is to a fancy restaurant that's still in construction and sadly the owners will have your car towed if you park there! While driving up Main street across from the Cosmic Cafe to your left will be a bridge and a large open lot with free parking.

Love love love Arthur Murray Dance Studio. We hired Renata to teach us a few dance lessons and…read moregenerate a dance routine for our San Diego wedding. It was one of the best decisions we ever made. Everyone at Arthur Murray was super inclusive, welcoming, supportive, personable, professional, and gave off a happy go lucky and good times kind of vibe. They always remind us of upcoming dance lessons and they did a wonderful job rescheduling appointments when something came up. Renata was phenomenal, masterfully skillful at teaching, and patient with us as we attempting to perform the routine with two left feet. It's now after the wedding and life is returning back to normal. But we enjoyed the positive and inviting environment that Arthur Murray Dance Studio so much, that we now want to continue with them, and want to learn other dance forms. I would highly recommend Arthur Murray Dance Studio to anyone looking to learn a new dance, make new friends, get a decent aerobic exercise session, be uplifted with support, and generally want to have a fun time. My favorite phrase they use there is, "Dance is for everyone".

Rip off. Train the teacher program while the teacher tries to pretend to teach you dance for…read morethousands of dollars. Owners grew up in the exact same environment and are never around to actually teach. They will show up when they are selling outrageously priced events to put you in FOMO mode. The model is new students all the time so the inexperienced teachers can fake their way thru lessons and charge a fortune. Go ANYWHERE else. Check out any of their annual holiday videos on YouTube and see for yourself. Not one good performance and lazy inexperienced teachers full of crap to pump you up and out of your money. The reason there are so many five star reviews is because they make it a requirement to go online and give them a review as part of a system to qualify for freebies. So again using their model to sell sell sell, you have to give them a good review so you can get a free lesson or a small party at the end of the month in which they ask you to bring your own food and supply all of the drink drinks for them and in my opinion is never a good deal.

My Ate Rachelle invited me to try out Step 1 Dance & Fitness' Wednesday 7pm beginner adult hip-hop…read moreclass with coach Joe H. Personally, I'm more of a Zumba gal so this style of dance was really out of my comfort zone and I didn't know what to expect. First time in, and the drop-in price for the class was $15. While waiting for the previous [full] class to finish in that room (Zumba), restrooms were all the way down the hall and they also have an Elkay water bottle filler. There were at least two or three more rooms in use for youth/teen classes, and folding chairs along the hallway for parents/spectators too. There were less than ten people total in the class by my estimate, and it is once a week recurring. It sounded like the past two weeks they were working on choreography moves, but this evening Joe wanted to focus on a basic skill tutorial/demo -- the Wave! The arm wave is one of the coolest foundational illusions in popping, where you make your arm look like a ripple of water. After a warmup meditative movement set, he really broke it down step by step, practicing each position, first a cappella then with music, slow first then sped up, then added variations/flair. Isolating each joint is the key: fingers/hands up, then pop wrist, elbow up, pop shoulder up, chest, then once at opposite shoulder, reverse the path down the other arm! He also showed us a trace wave transition into a body wave, popping the left knee, then right knee, hip, chest, head, then trace back to the arm/hand. You could even do the arm wave at shoulder level, down at your waist, with both arms parallel, or point at each pop of the body wave. He also showed us the difference between waving out versus waving in. One water break pause during the hour, but otherwise it was fun to learn and follow along. The class after us was Beg/Int Contemporary Fusion 8pm, then Heels at 8:30pm. For adults they also have Jazz, Tap, Ballet, Line Dance, Fierce Funk, Soca Dance Fitness, Stretch Fusion and Sculpt & Define. https://step1danceandfitness.com/pdfs/Adult-schedule.pdf

She doesn't have the same level of fun at a normal dance studio because she is more reserved and she doesn't know the people there. That's been a big plus for us. Does she learn anything cool? Don't know. My daughter shows us very little of what she learns. The dance performance she dis at school was kinda weak; teacher said they only learned the dance that morning. My question was why they only prepared in the morning instead of 2 weeks ago. In any case, the key thing for us is the fun factor. And my daughter has a lot of fun. That's why the 4 stars. Otherwise I might give them a 3 based on the performance I saw.
