Testimonials from Our Students
Vince & Calvert Bratton
"I've been a two-year client of Arthur Murray Las Vegas learning ballroom dances from the Foxtrot, Waltz, Tango, Hustle, and many more. The instructors are professional, supportive and fun to dance with. My husband and I enlisted their help and knowledge for our wedding dance, and it was one of the best decisions we made! Our guests are still talking about our choreographed Foxtrot, and we have the whole Arthur Murray team to thank for their help!" --Vince & Calvert Bratton

As a beginner ballroom student, I had no idea what to expect. Greg Darrough and his entire dance crew at Arthur Murray dance studio made me feel so comfortable. Each dance teacher was extremely patient with me throughout my entire learning processes. The level of professionalism at Arthur Murray is exceptional and transpires through the success of their students. I now have memories that will last forever and dance skills that my husband and I can always use on any dance floor!
Thank you!Dr. Susie Monahan

Dear Alisa, Valerie, and Arthur Murray team,
Finally, I am back home in Israel, and I already miss you all.
The first thing I did was to order 100 pizza's to practice with--ha ha.
I wish I could spend some more time in Vegas dancing and having fun with you.
It is not a common thing to find friendly, charming, and professional people like you.
Keep having fun and save me the last tango.
Ofer akerman,

Good night Vegas--wherever you are.

My feelings about dance and Arthur Murray can be summed up in a few paragraphs.
Have you ever been to a function with successful people that you admire?
Then the music starts and they head for the dance floor, not waiting for others to get there first. For them, dancing is not a show, it is part of their success. They enjoy it, and as in all things, they do it well.
To know you can do something well is a quality that makes you walk tall. Knowing you can dance is something that never leaves you. Combine both the feeling and knowledge and you cannot help but be a more complete and fun person.
As a beginning dancer at Arthur Murray you first expereience the elation when you realize you did the step correct and on time with the music. As you advance you become smoother and your confidence grows. Your friends notice and some may even try to guess what is different about you. Your circle of friends expands. Dancers are quality people that you want to know.
They accept you for who you are. You should live the reality! Sow the seeds of confidence--dance--have pride--be admired. Be that dancer that you have always wanted to be.

When I was about 73, I started taking lessons from The Arthur Murray Studio. At first I didn't take it very seriously, but the more I learned, the more I wanted to learn. It was so much fun.
I didn't feel old when I was dancing. The studio is a wonderful place. We work hard because dancing is work. You have to spend many hours practicing.
But we are always having showcases, competitions, parties, etc. so we can show off. And I love to show off! I always have a great partner because there are so many very good teachers.
I take a lot of coaching lessons too, and that keeps you on your toes. I will be ninety years old next year, but I still dance every day, and hope that I will always continue even though I could be wearing wings...

When I came to Arthur Murray in Las Vegas, I was a street dancer. I only knew some latin rhythms, so I decided to learn American Ballroom such as Swing, Fox Trot, Hustle, Disco, etc. Now that I am an educated dancer, I can go to any night club or disco and dance with confidence and enjoy the music.
Dancing is happy & delightful; joyous & passionate. In ballroom dancing you get to meet wonderful people as well as burn calories and reduce stress. The studio offers fun for all ages.
