How much are your classes?

As for pricing, the most popular choices for first time students:

Beginner Pass  for $109 - includes all beginner classes for an entire month 
(best deal!) REGISTER NOW!

or

$69 for a 6-punchcard which should pay for the first month and a half of classes if you come once a week. And it doesn't expire for 60 days, so you can use the punchcard for one class a week, or multiple classes a week! 

Visa, Mastercard and Discover accepted.

Do I need a partner?

We provide the partners, and we rotate often. 

What credit cards do you take?

Visa, Mastercard and Discover.

Can I take a class to just try it?

You're welcome to join either the first or second week of class.  A single class is $15.  If you like it and want to join the series, before you leave, ask if you can apply your payment to a punchcard (you'll save yourself $$$).  

Do you have a place to practice?

Yes, on Friday nights we have a practice Salsa Dance at 8:30 PM when we open the studio for practice and a FREE beginner lesson.  Every Saturday is a different or mix of the other partner dances, tango, swing, etc.  We order snacks and refreshments for everyone to enjoy.  Please join us - and bring your friends.  We have wonderful students which create a very welcoming atmosphere.  

How can I get comfortable with dancing before class?

We've had many students buy the video series of our Entry Level Classes, learn the lessons at home, practice a little before class, and start classes with confidence that they know what to expect.  Our video series, "The 2-Left-Footer's Guide to Dancing Salsa" is great for those really hesitant to take their first steps.  The 10 set for salsa covers everything from basics through intermediate moves including ladies styling and warm-up exercise DVDs which compliment our in-studio salsa classes.  

This has been an ideal option for first time students who feel they have "2 left-feet" or have never danced before to comfortably fold into our classes. 

There are a couple of ways to get the DVDs:  
(1) Friday nights at the 8:30 PM we open the studio for practice and we have the DVDs available for you to pre-view and purchase.  Just let them know at the front desk if you're not there to participate, you're just interested in the DVDs, and you won't have to pay to enter.

(2) To learn more about the videos or to order online click here now!

How do I register? 

TWO WAYS: 

  1. Just come to class at the Dance Family Studio 15 minutes before class to purchase your 6-punch card.  

  2. The popular Beginner Pass is our best deal. For $109 students receive unlimited entrance to all beginner classes for the month.  This is great for someone wanting to really give dancing a try.  Beginners get the benefit of coming to unlimited classes for more practice and exercise.

    PRE-REGISTER HERE
    $109 Beginner Pass 
    This is also great for anyone wanting to "try-out" more than one dance.

    Unlimited entrance to all beginner classes for an entire month
    Pick up your pass at the front desk and your pass will always be in the member area.

    No punch cards, no lines, no waiting, all the benefits of elite members!

Can I call you?

Sure! We have a 24-hour info line, and during business hours you can get through to someone on staff. Just call (626) 568-3764. We look forward to speaking with you and answering any questions you may have!

Notes from a few of our students:

I just arrived home from my first Salsa II class, and what can I say? One word--WOW!!! The instructors were beyond excellent, the atmosphere so warm and inviting, and I just love the happy smiles on the faces of my fellow students--even when we make mistakes. I think I can speak for us all when I say we had a blast!  I think I've found a new home with Dance Family. Can't wait until next week!
