Fun Facts About Our History At Dance Louisville

Some quick facts about our studio. We began construction on the inside in 2005 and opened the doors later that year. That was the date of the official first private lesson on the new dance floor.

The studio was born out of a desire for us to bring Louisville a relaxed fun environment for people to enjoy dancing. Dance Louisville still offers full competitive programs in all styles of partner dancing but the initial focus is on helping students find their passion. Our lessons, group classes and dances are all focused on the fun part. We offer showcases and studio trips so that as people grow with their dancing, so do the opportunities.

Over the years we have slightly changed our focus from the more traditional ballroom classes to a more modern mix of salsa, swing and ballroom. We have worked within the city to add classes that were not offered in other places and fit needs that other studio are not able to fill. We have tried to not compete with other dance venues in town but rather to add things to the community that were not previously there. Each year we take inventory of the dance classes, and pay attention to other studios in Louisville to make sure we are an asset to the city as a whole!

Also our teachers and students travel the US and abroad to continue their training in all the styles of dancing to keep us on the cutting edge.

We have several students that have been with us the entire 15+ years we have been open! Thats loyalty. Although we are one of the most relaxed studios in town and are students are free to dance wherever they like, many of them simply prefer our way of doing business and call our studio home.
