How many lessons will it take before I know how to dance?
Everyone learns at a different pace and each dance style differs in complexity, so it's impossible to give you a specific time frame.

And, if you come to all the group lessons and practice parties, you'll be amazed at how quickly you'll learn things!

Arthur Murray Milan offers lessons in all the most popular styles of ballroom and Latin style dancing, including waltz, foxtrot, tango, salsa, rumba, cha cha, swing, lindy hop, bachata and so much more!
What should I wear to my first lesson?
It's best to dress in comfortable clothes that are easy to move around in. Wear shoes that don't slip off your feet and try to avoid shoes such as trainers, with heavy rubber soles (you'll stick to the floor!). After taking a few classes or completing the beginner program, you may decide to invest in a pair of dance shoes. Have a chat with your teacher, he will be able to advise you on the best type of shoes for men and women, finding all the material conveniently at school!
How long does a dance lesson last?
Private lessons and group lessons last approximately 45 minutes each.
