Dance With Me Austin

My fiancé and I took private lessons here to prepare for our first dance at our wedding, and we couldn’t have asked for a better instructor than Kristoffe. He made every session fun, comfortable, and full of laughter even while challenging us to look and feel confident on the dance floor. His teaching style is patient, encouraging, and perfectly tailored to beginners, like us, who wanted to look natural but elegant. By the time our big day arrived, we felt so prepared and actually enjoyed our dance in front of everyone. Kristoffe turned what could have been a stressful part of wedding prep into one of our favorite memories together. Highly recommend!!

“Dance With Me Austin has truly become like a second home to me. From the very first class, I felt not just welcomed but genuinely cared for. The instructors are beyond talented, but what makes them so special is their kindness, patience, and the way they believe in you even when you doubt yourself. They meet you where you are, and then somehow bring out the very best in you every single time. Over the course of my journey here, I’ve not only learned how to dance with more skill and grace, but I’ve also found a community filled with joy, encouragement, and laughter. Every lesson feels like a celebration, and I always leave lighter and happier than when I came in. Dance With Me isn’t just a studio it’s a place where confidence, artistry, and friendships grow. I’m forever grateful for the love, passion, and family I’ve found here.”

I started taking dance lessons here, initially thinking I would just learn a couple of basic social dances. Now I’m practicing over 10 different styles and can’t imagine my life without dance. I was a complete beginner (I had never taken a formal dance class in my life (just a two step lesson at White Horse and maybe a salsa lesson in a dance club), and I immediately felt happy and comfortable here. The studio is my happy place and a major part of my life now. All of the teachers are amazing. The community of students is warm and welcoming. I’m always having fun, but my teachers also make sure that I’m challenging myself to learn and grow. I love Dance With Me!

After enjoying a couple of private lessons at this studio, I was genuinely excited to use my new pass for social dance classes. Unfortunately, my first group class left me feeling invisible and unwelcome. I called ahead to confirm it was beginner-friendly. I arrived early to try and meet the instructor, but I was unable to make any connection before class began. During the warm-up, I couldn't see or hear what was happening due to a lack of amplification and multiple simultaneous lessons. When we were asked to pair off, I had no partner and felt overlooked, as no one checked in or even glanced my way as I tried to find one. It was isolating and discouraging, especially as a newcomer. I did reach out to the studio to express this and was told the manager would follow up with me, but they did not. I'm sharing this review, not to be harsh, but in hopes that others won't have the same experience. Feeling seen and welcomed should be a part of every dance class, especially for beginners.

Absolutely Amazing! It is absolutely gorgeous from the outside and the instructors are both knowledgeable and friendly! I have no formal training or knowledge in dance, so I was a bit nervous at first. That went away immediately, all of the instructors are very approachable and made a newbie like me feel at ease. There's so many different dances to choose from and you get to keep on building your skills. I always feel really happy after a class. Jason is my primary teacher, and he's very patient and kind in teaching new students. I take private and group classes, and they've been great. Haven't yet been to the socials yet, but they look amazing! It's actually a really smart concept. I highly recommend this for anyone looking to learn how to ballroom dance. I even wrote/drew a little comic about my first encounter with the studio. I was literally just walking by.
