If you are considering dance lessons, this is where you want to be. I moved here from Denver and was stunned to find world-class instruction in Charleston. This is affirmed by the fact that the top coaches in the U.S. (who also coach international competitors) visit our studio regularly. These are ballroom leaders who do not waste their time flying to work with people they do not believe in or enjoy being around. Truly, the entire community is a family, and my heart spends half its time in the studio. I'm so grateful. Joining this dance family is a gift.

This dance studio feels so much like family to me. From the very beginning, I was welcomed with such professionalism, kindness, and genuine friendliness that it instantly felt like home. But what truly sets this studio apart is the love they exude — not just for the art of dance, but for one another. You can feel the passion in every class, every rehearsal, and every interaction. It’s a place where you’re supported, encouraged, and inspired to grow. Being here makes you never want to leave, because it’s more than just a studio — it’s a community built on heart, dedication, and love

My Husband and I took an intro class and two private lessons before our first dance at our wedding. I really wanted it to be a low key, but special dance. We chose a not so common song that we had our band make an arrangement for. I'll get to the point. WE LOVED EVERY SECOND OF THIS EXPERIENCE. We knocked our dance out of the park and the spins and the dips made it so fun and cool. However, I think our favorite piece of it was the actual lessons, getting to spend that kind of time working together to create a dance we will remember forever. If you are getting married it is such a wild time and getting moments like those are so so important. We always walked out beaming. The entire staff is awesome. Their energy, understanding, and creativity were everything I could have asked for.
This is your sign to take the dance class. One of the best decisions I made.
