Why Is The BlueBallRoom Dance Studio and Club Different?
- We teach a full 45-minute lesson and book on a 50-minute cycle. In other words, we give the teachers 5 minutes to say goodbye, hello, and get ready for the next lesson. Most studios think you can begin and end a lesson on the same time and book every 45-minutes. The teacher will be rushed, and your lesson will start late. Not fun…
- Our pricing is very transparent. You can see the cost of all our packages and programs on this website, in our online store, and we are happy to quote them to you. Beware the studio that offers a special price offer (a come-on) and won’t tell you how much the lessons cost until after the so called special.
- We are not part of a franchise – meaning we don’t have to charge more to cover a +8% franchise fee just to learn the exact same dances and steps.
- The only studio that provides FREE Floortime Practice for its Private Lesson Members.
- The only studio that provides FREE ClubDance Practice Parties with FREE refreshments to its
Private Lesson Members two to three times per month. - The only studio with two separate ballrooms where you can hear your music as you learn.
- Our instructors attend the Dance Parties and dance with the students to help them learn and practice.
- We are a family – all our instructors are employees of the studio. They work together for a common goal, not independently.
- Gentlemen Dance Hosts attend our Dance Parties – so everyone gets a chance to dance.
- The studio is a real, full-time operation with a business license that operates in a fixed location.
- The instructors are covered by workman’s compensation, unemployment insurance and the studio liability policy. They pay taxes – just like you.
- We accept all major credit cards, with easy online purchase options.
- Our dancefloor is comprised of the finest hardwood maple on a laser-leveled, floating, and sprung subfloor to protect your legs and those of our staff. Not LTV on concrete that looks like wood.
- We have an ongoing program – not one that stops and starts every couple of weeks while you forget what you have learned.
- We don’t believe in back-to-back beginner and intermediate group classes that offer price breaks to encourage a person to attend a class that is not correct for their dance level. It only confuses the student and holds the rest of the class back.
- We pay licensing rights for the music we play.
- Our sound system is the highest quality with speakers throughout the room in the ceiling. This creates a music level that is enjoyably the same from one end of the room to the other.
- We teach from a proven curriculum and track the progress of each student.
- Our staff works together; private lesson material and group class material complement the learning process for the best value and progress for the student.
- We support our community – see the list below:
