Steppin’ Out Ballroom Dance

***This is a review of their 7^th St. location.***
I booked Steppin Out as an event venue for my mother’s 50^th birthday. From the beginning, communication was easy and mainly done via email which is how I prefer it (nice to be able to refer back to things in writing). Chris was my main contact and he was professional and helpful throughout the entire process. We held her party on a Saturday afternoon and everything went just as planned. The room was beautiful and the floors are perfect for dancing which was the main thing my mom wanted to do. We had about 100 guests and everyone was seated comfortably. There were also two women on-​site who helped us with anything we needed and they were great — very courteous and willing to help at all times. Unfortunately our caterers had to set up outside (a taco cart) since there wasn’t much room for them to set up inside. I felt bad for them because it was so hot that day but it all worked out just fine. Our only issue was that the AC wasn’t as strong as I expected it to be but that was partially because we had to keep opening the back door so our guests could eat so the heat kept wafting in.
All in all it was the perfect place for my mom’s milestone celebration. I only wish we had held it at night so that I could see the room all lit up with the lights that line the walls.

So it has been over a month since my last review and I wanted to write another one. I cannot believe how much I have learned in such a short time. I have had the pleasure of working with Chris (the owner) and he is an amazing teacher and I can’t wait to show my progress at their anniversary showcase on October 3^rd. If you or your kids are thinking about taking ballroom dance lessons I highly recommend Steppin Out Ballroom. I guarantee you will not only love the instructors but you will want to dance everyday!

I decided to learn how to dance at 50. I had never danced before, ever. Chris and Angela took me in and made me feel right at home and completely at ease. They are both excellent teachers and amazing dancers, and have been very patient with me, letting me learn at my own pace. I had no idea I would love ballroom dancing so much! I’m very glad to make the hour drive to get there. As an elementary school educator, they’ve inspired me to be a better teacher myself. THANK YOU Steppin’ Out Ballroom Dance!

Great ballroom for dancing! Have been searching a long time for such an awesome place so close to home! I was warmly greeted by the owners Chris and Angela, then I met up with some of their awesome instructors: Roxanne, Kelsey, Janelle, and finally started my group lessons in Cha Cha, Salsa, Tango, East and West Coast Swing, etc.!! Such a fun way get my exercise and learn new techniques, styling and moves! Anyone who loves to dance, Steppin’ Out Ballroom is always open to meet your dancing needs!

From a beginner point of view who had been promising his wife dance lessons for years this studio was an amazing discovery for us, great instructors, good rates and an organized way of teaching. After private and group lessons the last few months we are learning in a comfortable fashion and feeling good about our progress. If you are ready to learn and want to learn right this is the place to start

The intimacy of the studio and the professionalism of the instructors plus the great people who take lessons there were all determining factors that helped to choose Steppin’ Out as my home studio.
Although I began my Latin dance classes in October of 2014 at a larger studio, it was the small classes that really helped me to get my timing right and to help me understand the idiosyncrasies and subtleties of dance; it’s like having private lessons every night.
Now when I dance at other places the lessons I learned at Steppin’ Out are a tremendous help; for example doing a double turn in Cha Cha and in Salsa my repertoire of moves has grown!
Steppin’ Out has whetted my appetite to learn even more dances, and I am looking forward to Ballroom; especially Foxtrot.
I want to encourage anyone who wants to dance to come to Steppin’ Out; I ensure you that you will not be disappointed :)

I am student/​fan of Steppin Out Ballroom dance studios for about 2 years and it has been and continue to be one of the best investments that I have made.
My dancing skills are improving with each lesson and my self confidence too!!! I attribute this to my teachers at Steppin out, Thank you Angela, Chris, Roxanne and team.
I encourage those out there to come in and take a lesson or two. I am so happy I did!
See you on the dance floor!

Firstly, the studio itself is really nice. The owners made great choices regarding the wood floor and the walls, making everything asthetically sound. Mirror placement around the room was also well-​done; there are 5 total for you and the instructors to observe footwork and body motions.
The instructors themselves are both professional and knowledgeable, but more importantly, they are all fun. Their passion and love for what they do really shines through, and they are all patient with students.
The atmosphere they set is without pressure and extremely welcoming. The other students support this, and are more than willing to offer tips in addition to their patience when it comes to new students.
Being new to the entire world of ballroom dance, I found Steppin’ Out to be better than I expected, and was pleased to be informed by fellow students who also attend other studios that this is their favorite. If you’re thinking of getting into the hobby, I highly recommend you check this place out first.
