We LOVE A Step Ahead! Courtney & Jason are awesome Instructors! My wife and I went to a Group Lesson for Two Step in January. This was something we've wanted to try for a long time, and we've had NO previous dance training (think 2 left feet for me). Had a great time, it was informative, really helpful.
