How lessons work

Arthur Murray created the approach of combining private lessons, group classes, and dance parties, and using all three is still the quickest way to become a confident dancer.

Private lessons give you personal instruction tailored to your goals and what you want to work on. Group classes put you with dancers at a similar level, where you learn new material and get to dance with your fellow students. Parties give you a chance to practice socially, the way you would at a wedding or a night out.

Almost everyone is, at first

Nervous? You're in good company.

Many of our students had never danced before, and you're welcome to come with a partner or on your own. Your first lesson is free and takes about 30 minutes. We'll teach you the basic skills every dance is built on, get a feel for your natural ability, talk about your goals and availability, and give you a quick tour. From there, your teacher will recommend which dances to start with, how many lessons fit your goal, and a schedule that works for you. Your feedback is always welcome, so tell us what you enjoy and what you'd like more of.

"AnnMarie is truly one of a kind. Whether you want to choreograph a wedding dance, learn salsa or shag, start competing, or you're simply curious and have never danced a day in your life, this is the place to be. AnnMarie and her staff meet you exactly where you are and support you every step of the way. I can't recommend them highly enough."

"I have been taking lessons with AnneMarie and her staff for well over a year. As a 'Senior' with mobility issues I had concerns. AnneMarie and Maria were extremely patient with me and never pushed me to do more than I felt I could safely do. I feel better and stronger than I have in a while, and my doctor always tells me 'Keep Dancing!' I live in Summerville, and it's well worth the drive to Mt Pleasant!"

"I was the sort of person who would have 'never been caught dead on the dance floor,' so to speak. AnnMarie helped me change that! As someone who was petrified of dancing, AnnMarie was able to make even the most challenging dances comfortable. Her down-to-earth communication makes you feel like an individual with personal goals rather than a number on a student roster."

"When I began taking dance lessons, I did it only for my wife and viewed it a short term commitment. Three years later it has become something we both enjoy and time we value… She adapts her teaching to your individual learning style, making the lessons fun instead of anxiety producing. I would give Ann Marie more than 5 stars if it were possible!"

"Excellent professional instructors. I've danced with Maria, Charles, and Anne Marie. All are great and bring unique strengths to each dance. They focus on your goals and your interests. Sometimes we are working towards a special occasion and sometimes we just dance for the fun of it. It's a great time for the mind and body. Highly recommend."

"The best dance lesson experience! Instructor AnnMarie genuinely understands how to balance the technical details of teaching dances while also making it truly enjoyable for the student. Not an easy feat but she does it with ease! If you want to learn to dance and also enjoy the journey, this is the place!"

"What makes it deserving of 5 stars is the teaching. Whether you are low or high level, the atmosphere of the dance studio is one of welcomed curiosity and fun… AM Mt Pleasant strikes the perfect balance. With a nearly unnatural skill to understand what every person needs, both in technique and in enjoyment… Learning is a marathon, and AM Mt Pleasant gives you the mechanics, the fuel, and the desire to keep going. Highly recommend."
