This place is amazing! Learned a great amount of dancing styles in the time that I spent here. The staff is extremely friendly and a pleasure to be around my personal instructor Nichole did an amazing job from start to finish. Our routine would of been legendary if I hadn't had to back out for personal reasons. I would recommend this school to anyone looking to get more comfortable at dancing or even wanting to go professional. Great job Arthur Murray Goodyear!!!!
