Andrey was a pleasure to learn from. He made us feel comfortable, was patient and worked hard to make sure we were confident going into our first dance. He was encouraging and made the process fun. We’re so grateful for the confidence and memories. Highly recommend!

I cannot recommend this place enough. I started coming here in December as someone who wanted to finally overcome their embarrassingly low level of dance skills, and I left with so much more than technique. I have found so much joy that I didn’t know I had for dancing, and I’ve met some of the nicest and supportive people at this studio. As someone who grew up only dancing ballet, a toxic studio environment is something you know to look out for, and that simply does not exist at Arlington Ballroom. I reached out in search of a private lesson on a whim, and immediately heard back from Dmitri, the owner, who was so wonderful in getting me set up for my very first lesson. My lesson was with Andrey, who actually just deserves a review of his own. You can tell when someone truly loves and cares about what they do, and that is Andrey. I’ve now had many private and group lessons with him, and I don’t think he possesses the ability to make you feel bad about yourself. You’re met with encouragement from him - for the things you’re doing well and also the encouragement to keep making mistakes. Andrey, you’re an absolutely wonderful teacher and dancer, and you’re such an inspiration to me - thank you, and I can’t wait to continue working with you (: I’ve also gotten to work with a few of the other teachers there, and it’s so wonderful to be able to experience the different styles of teaching and learn something new from them. Shoutout Jen for the group classes, Michelle for some extra salsa training, and Alena also for private lessons! The last thing I’ll say here is once again how wonderful management is. Dmitri has clearly worked so hard at cultivating an environment for people of all skill levels to find a place at Arlington Ballroom. Between group classes, private lessons, competitions, and events, there truly is so much opportunity to explore. He has created a place that is inviting and exciting, and I’m so impressed with the company he has made.
