The Motown-Style class is great. I love the instructors, It's a top - notch class.
Karyne Johnson is very dedicated to her work and is easy to deal with as an instructor.
They can work with anyone and they take you step by step. There is a structure to what they teach. They don't simple repeat the same thing week after week.
As a birthday gift, I bought my husband a 1 hour private tutorial lesson. He enjoyed the sessions so much we have completed all 3 levels and are looking to being trained for Ballroom 4 by Winter 2007. Dale, Karen, and their entire professional staff not only provide excellent hands on instruction, THEY MAKE DANCING FUN!!!
I feel that they are thorough and passionate about dancing and it shows in the students.
The entire team is extremely helpful. They give you personalized attention to ensure you can dance! They are absolutely great!!!!!!!!!!
My husband and I love taking classes we started over a year ago I paid for the first class for his 40th b-day and now we are getting set to start class #4. When we go out to the different clubs we get so excited when we show people our style of ballroom.
They are very patient and courteous as well as able to give you the special attention if needed.
Karyne Johnson and Dale Lott have provided an opportunity for thousands to learn a dance form for all ages that never goes out of style, and gives fun and exercise to participants..
They make you feel that any dance step is possible. It is like "dancing with the stars".
They offer a unique way of teaching many dance forms. Dale and Karyne are a lot of fun!
Dale and Karyne's ballroom lessons combine a very personal touch with the proper amount of discipline resulting in a very productive style of teaching.
Dale & Karyne and their assistants are professional, friendly and can teach ANYONE to do this very classy dance--I took all four levels and thoroughly enjoyed it.
I took ballroom lessons with Dayle and Karyne a few years ago. I wanted to find an activity to do to keep in shape and have fun all at the same time. It was the best decision I made. I still stay in contact with the people from the Motow-Style ballroom class. Everyone was nice and just like family. I tell all of my friends about this class.
This is the best class I've ever had. Not having any ballroom experience before, now I feel great out on the dance floor if anyone. Due to the great instructors.
Even if you think you have two left feet you will leave this class with the confidence and skills you need to command the floor. It's not impossible!
Dale and Karen are really good teachers. Even when they are trying to teach people with two left feet.
This ballroom class is a lot of fun and makes it easy for anyone to learn the dance.
The instructors are skilled dance instructors as well as talented dancers. They are patient and make dancing a fun filled adventure even if you have three left feet. (Smile) The team of individuals that work with them all bring precision and talent that they share with each student. These professional instructors break it down step by step by turn by pivot 123. They are organized with a well planned course objectives. Thanks to their tutorage my husband and I have lost a little weight and can ballroom. We have taken Ballroom 1, 2, 3 and 4. We plan to continue with even more classes.
I had a great time learning how to ballroom dance from these guys. I would highly recommend them.
Dale and Karyne are extremely helpful and patient. They encourage you to practice and have fun while learning. Plus its not a bad workout.
The instructors are great. Their Hustle class made it very easy to learn complicated hustles. Their Ballroom class broke down the secrets of the hand signals/motions used in ballroom dancing. My husband and I had a great time in the ballroom class. I highly recommend their classes to everyone. The dance studio even hosts a yearly ballroom gala to give the students of all skill levels (and anyone else who wants to attend) an opportunity to show off/practice their ballroom skills. It's lots of fun.
Before coming to Motown-Style Ballroom Dance Lessons, I had two left feet and no rhythm. The organization of the classes absolutely worked for me. Other ballroom dance classes had open enrollment every week. I never felt like there was continuity of skill building from one week to the next. Fortunately, Motown Style Ballroom Dance was structured. Each week, we built upon the skills from the previous week. Once you completed Ballroom 1, there was an expectation of skill proficiency when entering Ballroom 2. Additionally, it was absolutely great fun. I laughed, laughed, laughed the entire time and met great "friends for life".
My husband and I are not a dancers but after attending all 4 classes we look like stars on the floor! We had a great time and have been telling all of our friends about this wonderful class and its star teachers. Karen and Dale and their staff are the best!
Instructors & staff are Very patient!! Class structure allows for enough time for not only instruction but practice... very important for beginners! I loved my experience!
These guys are the best they make sure every one comes from their class is a dancer.
Thanks to the dedication of Dale and Karyne, the instructors, this has become the most fun and systematically taught ballroom class available.
My husband and I had lessons there...they made it fun, took time with each of us, extremely talented, had a diverse group w/ all ages and of course had great Motown music to learn by! Also they have a Christmas party for all their clients every year!
They are systematic which provides basic instruction for all to learn when you have two left feet like myself!
Very professional...but they make you feel welcome and comfortable. Fun and excited about teaching. If I had to grade them I would give them an A++ and double promotion.
I've taken three Motown-Style Ballroom classes to learn to the dance but it's much more than that for me. It's an outing my husband and I use to bond. It's great for socializing with others who are there to learn to dance. The atmosphere is relaxed and supportive for first-time dance.
You won't be disappointed but you may get addicted to dancing.
Dale and Karen were very good instructors and they also kept the classes exciting which made the hour of classtime seem very quick.
My wife and I have exceeded our expectations and are now confident Motown- Ballroom dancers, thanks to our instructors Dale & Karyne.
Motown-Style Ballroom Dance has the best instructors. They are patient with the class and most of all, they enjoy themselves while teaching others.
When I started I had two left foots now I can dance ballroom with great teachers and looking to finish at the next class!
The instructors are nice and down to earth. Make the dance steps simple and teach step by step. Most importantly you look forward to attending class every week because it is fun.
My husband and I took Motown-Style ballroom dance lessons so that we could ballroom for our first dance at our wedding reception. The lessons paid off and our first dance was a huge success! Our guests were truly surprised and entertained as we smoothly showcased our newly acquired ballroom dance talents.
