Absolute Dance Studio

On Friday, we had a a private group lesson with Ballroom Dance Instructor, Antonio Frias. Let me tell you from the moment I arrived, he was soooo awesome! Antonio showed me around the dance studio. It was clean, nicely decorated and I loved the disco balls hanging off the ceiling! The rest of our group joined us and we began our lesson! The first dance Antonio taught us was Bachata! Antonio explained it so well and we had sooo much fun following along! The next dance was Salsa. We started off slow then picked up some speed to go with the music. We took a break because boy! I felt like I had just done cardio LOL Our group took some beautiful pictures by the Christmas Tree. We finished it off with an awesome group dance! My friends and I had an amazing evening and WE CAN NOT wait to return! You are one super cool Ballroom dancer, Antonio!!!

I've wanted to take ballroom lessons for well over 20 years. I have friends that were into competing in the 90's that taught me some basic stuff and I've wanted to grow that base ever since to become a skilled graceful dancer. I'm pretty decent, but super out of practice. Hubby on the other hand, grew up in a community straight out of the movie Footloose- ultra conservative Christian with no TV, no music, no dancing. He was permitted to play drums in symphony, but that was the limit of his musical upbringing, and he's NEVER been a dancer. That is changing. My fat ass needs to get back into shape and he needs to improve his cardio function. I HATE going to the gym and dance is my favorite form of exercise, so I purchased an introductory Groupon that includes 3 private lessons 1 group lesson and 1 dance party. We had our first lesson yesterday, and I have to give props to our instructor, Stas, who is also the owner. He sits down with you first to talk about how they run things, what you can expect, and to discover why you're there and what your goals are. He taught us basic dance steps, then taught us the basic merengue and salsa steps with a couple of turns. I was very impressed with his teaching style and look forward to many more lessons - and hope to instill a love of dance in hubby.

Avoid this place at all cost.The owner mistreats his own instructors, disrupts their classes in order to be rude to the instructors. Ballroom instructors are not very good and the staff is rude to the instructors and the instructors clients.

I can't wait to be back dancing!!! Love the studio, miss the other social dancers!

Great place to learn to dance! Instructors are very professional and knowledgeable. Friday night social dances are also great. Very warm and inviting atmosphere. Love it here.
