Wonderful dance studio. The instructors make dancing feel possible no matter your skill and knowledge base. I walked in knowing nothing about ballroom dance and left knowing the basics of two dances! Not only that, but I felt like I was really dancing during the first lesson. The atmosphere is friendly and the people are welcoming. I always have a good time when I attend the classes and parties. Highly recommend if you are interested in dancing.

At first, I fell in love with the whole dynamic of dancing. The Rio Rancho location truly was my favorite place to be. Dancing every day was my happiness. Then the Rio Rancho location closed down. I had to make the trip all the way across town if I wanted to dance. The new location was great for some time, but Arthur Murray hired some new people. My family was always treated like royalty at Arthur Murray and it was one of the reasons I loved being there, but when the new hires treated my mother very poorly and made her feel as if she had no value (on several occasions this happened) I decided to

My husband and I love taking dance lessons at Arthur Murray! It has become our home away from home. The instructors are all friendly, enthusiastic, and professional. And the Friday night parties are a blast with conga lines, line dances, the Hokey Pokey, in addition to ballroom dancing, of course. We dont know how we ever lived without our Arthur Murray family before we started dancing.
