I would love to continue learning here, however the prices are way higher than I was expecting them to be. I might pop in to some classes or an event sporadically. Unfortunately I can't justify spending almost $800 on dance lessons at the moment. :(

I have a love hate relationship with Arthur Murray as a whole. My husband and I have been dancing…read morewith the franchise for a few years (this is our third studio). I thought our original Arthur Murray was expensive as after the initial new student specials, the prices were significantly more than other studios. Of course by then we were committed as my husband loved our instructor and the other students. Each studio has been progressively more expensive. This studio is 25% more than the base price we paid across the country (and no, rents aren't that different). The sale price here is significantly more than the sale prices there (to be fair, at least this studio does sales- our second one did not). The staff here is very talented (though they do have a few newer instructors that are definitely still learning). The students are nice as well though the overall vibe is less friendly/open than our first studio where it honestly felt like a family. Here, the shared bond is dance and you won't learn much about the staff beyond that. This isn't a bad thing, just different. Over all, if you choose ballroom dancing as a hobby, this is definitely one of the best places to do it. Just... know its going to be a very expensive hobby.

Since coming to The Dance Academy of Puyallup, my daughter's skills have improved dramatically (age…read more8 ). I greatly appreciate Shari's kind but firm leadership and the fact that she brings me in every step of the way. I'm enabled to be a partner in my daughter's dance journey, rather than just the wallet. Along with beautiful dance technique, my daughter is learning poise, manners, good sportsmanship, and how to carry herself as a serious athlete. I am thankful that both my daughter and I feel comfortable in talking with Shari and the other teachers about absolutely anything. We know our thoughts will be welcomed and addressed respectfully, without fear of consequence. The studio is always clean and is a welcoming environment to dancers, parents, and siblings. Most nights my daughter asks to stay long after her classes have ended because she feels so at home and has built strong friendships. In addition to the High Impact Team, we love the recitals and extra performance opportunities. It is only April and my daughter is already counting down to Victorian Country Christmas because she had so much fun dancing in the shows there. We are proud to be apart of The Dance Academy of Puyallup. It's a great home for any dancer!

I have been dancing at The Dance Academy of Puyallup for almost 8 years and I couldn't imagine…read moredancing anywhere else. The environment that Shari creates for all of us is amazing, we are like one big family. We are given so many opportunities, and taught to chase our dreams and strive to be the best we can be. Not only are we supported in the studio but we are also supported outside the studio. The teachers here are like no other they are all incredibly supportive and caring, and they treat us like their own. Whether you do recreation or team you will have an amazing experience here. I am so lucky to be a part of such an amazing team and I couldn't be happier.

The instructor has over 35 years of instruction experience and is very kind and patient. The class atmosphere is very welcoming to anyone, never do you feel pushed beyond your limits or feel like your competing against other students. If you love classical ballet and always wanted to take classes, no matter what age, (really - there is a lady beyond her 60's in the adult classes), or body type, this is a great ballet school to learn.
