Ballroom Dance Classes in the Arlington/Memphis Area?
I'm looking for ballroom dance classes for teens in the Arlington Memphis TN area.All the places we;ve found have been a good drive away,in Collierville, or Downtown memphis.Thats a lonng drive every week.
We looked at Fred Astaire,but from what We can gather,its mainly adults.if im wrong,please let me know.
Thanks for your help
Yes, it is mainly adults, but Benji and Beth Smith (Fred Astaire in Bartlett) are still your best choice if you want to stay close. http://www.dancesmiths.com/
The only person in the area who takes pains to tailor classes to teens is in Southaven, and even that, I think, is only a sometimes thing. Don't worry about it, though. Tom Korpitz (at the other Fred Astaire studio) had his kids dancing with the grownups when they were pre-teens, and teenagers fit in well in any of the studios.
