Global Hip Hop Sensation Brooklyn Jai to Host Arthur Murray Dance Party LIVE
I have been dancing at this studio for over 5 years, and it is the best decision I've ever made for myself. I have grown Immensely in so many ways. The teachers are great and so patient in every way. When I walk through the door, all my cares go away.

I knew dancing was fun, but Arthur Murray taught me that it's more than fun, it's a lifetime experience!
Andi Howard-Ringe
We came in knowing nothing, and now we have much more confidence to get on the dance floor. Our teachers are top notch, always gently pushing our capabilities. The staff has always been genuine in their kindness and willingness to help us. We always look forward to coming in to the studio, as we always know we will feel better and closer when we leave.

Dancing at the Arthur Murray Woodland Hills Studio has been the Best! The Staff creates such a supportive and fun-loving environment for both social dancing and the "serious" study of Ballroom Dance. This unique setting allows for all kinds of creativity to tumble forth. This is demonstrated in the parties, individual lessons, group lessons, and the generous performances of the professional staff. Fun to be had by all. The Staff is extraordinary! Bravo to the owners as well!

I enjoy coming to the studio. I don't have to push myself, I just find myself there. The atmosphere makes it fun and you can leave your troubles outside. It is great exercise and the people are nice.

As reluctant as I was about taking dance lessons, I'm having a great time. I'm actually learning how to dance, ballroom dance. Everyone here has been wonderful, the teachers, the staff and the students. I would highly recommend this studio to anyone.

Arthur Murray has without a doubt changed my life and the way I view it. The people I've met, and the experiences I've had, will stay with me for the rest of my life. Most importantly, my instructors Alexis Ho and Nick Jones, have had a major impact on my dancing.
Jessica Luckey
Coming from someone who's danced in several different arenas, Arthur Murray is the most comprehensive dance experience I've had. You get awesome instruction from the staff, along with practice, competition, and fun from all the parties and functions. Ultimately, with where I am in life, it's worth it.
Duffy
I can honestly say that joining Arthur Murray has been one of the best decisions I've ever made in my life. Not only do I get to dance and constantly improve what I enjoy every day, I've also met and have made friends with some of the most wonderful people, which is something I hadn't anticipated when I first joined. Both staff members and students are a delight to be around, and I can't think of a better way to spend my free time than to dance and be around friends who share the same love for dancing. In summary, time and money well spent!
Kristal Austria
My goal when I began was to feel comfortable in social dance situations, and that has improved 100%!
Lynn Nelson
Patience and ability with finding and correcting our deficiency is so appreciated.
Erik Nelson
I can never thank you enough for your encouragement, energy, and support! You are all the best! Thanks again!

We had talked about taking ballroom dancing lessons for several years, but never took the first step until we were planning our wedding. We wanted our first dance to be different and special, and decided on the tango to Por Una Cabeza. We discussed our plans with the Arthur Murray staff and started our lessons five months before the wedding. The Arthur Murray team choreographed our tango and worked tirelessly to give us the skills and confidence to perform for our friends and family, who still tell us how much they enjoyed our dance. When we started our dance lessons, we weren't sure how far we would go with dancing. We discovered that dancing is something that we can share with each other and decided to continue learning. We appreciate that the studio faculty and staff have pushed us to learn new things we didn't think we were capable of doing, in an environment of support and encouragement with our fellow students, making the challenge of learning enjoyable. With our deepest appreciation for changing our lives, Craig and Lori.

When I first walked into this studio, I expected to walk out in two minutes. I was overweight, in my mid-40s, and going through a very hard time. I had moved to the area fairly recently and had no friends or family here. Upon entering the studio, I was greeted by a very friendly receptionist who warmly welcomed me and answered all my questions. I thought I had to have a partner. No. Did I have to have any experience? No. I looked beyond the front desk and saw a room filled with people of all ages, sizes, and races. They all seemed to be having fun. What a concept, I thought. I signed up for an introductory lesson for the following week. When I arrived for that appointment, I was again greeted by the receptionist, who remembered me. I was introduced to a very nice young man named, Sam. In spite of my being extremely nervous, he put me at ease. He asked questions about why I decided to try dancing and offered suggestions on how they might meet my needs. Then, we danced.... on that first lesson! I actually had fun for the first time in a very long time. I wanted more so I signed up for the Foundation program and, not long after, the Bronze program. Now, 18 months later, I have two amazing instructors, Sam and Alexis. I go to the studio 4-5 times a week for private or group lessons, or parties. Next week, I leave for San Francisco to compete in a ballroom competition. Compete! I have lost a lot of weight and have many friends among the students and the staff. I always have something to look forward to and plan other activities around what is happening at the studio. I am grateful for all the staff, counselors, and students at the studio. It is such a supportive, encouraging, and fun environment. What they offer goes far beyond dance lessons. They offer a community... We celebrate weddings, birthdays, and anniversaries, and any other special event a student is celebrating. My life is very different from what it was when I first walked in there, and all for the better. Oh, and I can dance now, too!

Arthur Murray Dance Studio is the best! It is a great place to free your mind and enjoy time while learning new dances. When I first heard about Arthur Murray Dance Studio, I was very excited. I knew this was the place for me. I called and I soon began a foundation program and have been extremely satisfied since then. Everyone at the studio is very nice and welcoming. They make you feel very comfortable as a newcomer. Watching all the teachers dance and seeing the skill and flexibility they dance with is very inspirational. They motivate me to do better and one day dance with the poise and elegance they dance with. Arthur Murray Dance School is great, and everyday is an exciting day when I’m learning. I love it!

The primary reason we sought dance lessons as a couple, was that we wanted to be able to dance with a modicum of confidence at social occasions. Little did we know we would want more. The Arthur Murray Dance Studio in Woodland Hills has given us more than we had anticipated. We have become quite proficient in several dances: waltz, foxtrot, samba, cha cha, rumba, swing, hustle and salsa. The instructors are positive, patient and enthusiastic. Their entire focus is on the student in any situation, whether it is during a lesson or if the student has a particularly challenging dance move to master during a practice session. It is not uncommon for an instructor to approach us when we are practicing alone and share an observation with us. We have discovered that there are wonderful benefits to dancing. Dancing exercises both the physical and mental aspects of an individual. The physical is self explanatory (also great for weight loss). One needs to remember the steps to each dance and be able to improvise on the spot when on the dance floor, a perfect means to retain mental acuity. Robert & Christy Melgoza have created a friendly, but professional atmosphere at the studio. It is always a pleasant experience to enter the studio to cheerful greetings and smiling faces. Who would have thought that a couple in their 60's would be dancing the night away?

Corey and I came in to your studio August of 2009, determined to learn how to dance together for our special day. It has been such a wonderful experience learning with the instructors there. We look forward to our weekly lessons, dancing and laughing are always what we know to expect. Not only have we learned to dance, but we have also met some wonderful people. With only 6 weeks left to go... we are both feeling pretty confident that our first dance for our wedding, March 27th, 2010, will be wonderful. Thank you again to everyone (and we look forward to taking classes even after our big day is over).
