3 Best Dance Schools in Alexandria, VA

My husband and I have been taking dance lessons at Lioudmila’s with Maria for over a year and I couldn’t be happier with our instructor. We had a Dirty Dancing theme wedding and within 6 months, Maria worked miracles and taught my husband and I a version of the mambo for our wedding, and built off the steps to teach us a choreographed rumba for our first dance. Maria has been patient, makes us feel successful, and breaks down the moves so we are not overwhelmed. We loved her teaching style so much that we continue to take lessons with her going on 9 months post-wedding. We now get tons of compliments on our dancing at social clubs and weddings. I highly recommend the studio and especially Maria.

Studio Lioudmila was a phenomenal place for my partner and I to learn to dance for our upcoming wedding! Maria was a spectacular teacher - extremely patient and fun, but helped us progress quickly over our ten lessons. We are so excited for our big day and grateful to Maria and the studio team for helping us get ready.

The studio was beautiful and very welcoming! I was a bit nervous but my dance instructor made me feel confident and inspired for my dance session. If you’re looking for a high quality ballroom or Latin dance, this is the place for you!! Thank you.

The entire staff at Arthur Murray on Duke Street in Alexandria are some of the kindest and most supportive people we’ve worked with. If you get the chance to work with Dalton, you will have an amazing experience! My husband and I were new to the ballroom dancing scene and were fortunate to have worked closely with Dalton to prepare for our first dance at our wedding. During the entire process, Dalton made us feel at ease and we left every lesson feeling more and more confident for the big day. Dalton always made us smile and explained new dances in ways that were clear, sensical, and easy for us to remember. By the time it was over, we felt confident enough to go on and crush our first dance! Thank you for all your time and support Dalton and the Arthur Murray crew - we are your biggest fans.

I’m a beginner dancer and getting ready for my wedding. The team here was incredible in helping us find a routine that worked for us and give us the tools to make it work. Exceeded all expectations.

I love this dance studio! The instructors are fantastic, the students are friendly and welcoming. Three years ago I came thinking it would be a fun few dance lessons, but it's so much more. I absolutely love it there and I want to keep learning.
