Social Graces Ballroom Dance is a wonderful place to learn to dance. My husband and I have become avid ballroom dancers, and Social Graces has become a big part of our lives. Not only is ballroom dance a wonderful form of exercise, it has now been determined by the medical community that learning to ballroom dance is very beneficial for cognitive health -- far better than crossword puzzles. Part of the reason for this is the spatial decisions that one has to constantly be making in order to dance well. Another, of course, is remembering the steps and dance patterns. Having stated that learning to ballroom dance is a very worthwhile endeavor, you simply cant find friendlier, more competent instructors than those that you will find at Social Graces Ballroom Dance Studio. They are very easy to work with. They make learning new material very understandable, whether you are just starting out at basic Ballroom 101, or perhaps even working on new steps at the Silver or Gold level. Wherever you are as a dancer -- just starting out or refining your technique -- Social Graces Ballroom Dance in Berryville is the place to be.

I have been going to Social Graces Ballroom Dance Studio for about two years now, and I still love it very much. Having never learned formal dance in my youth, I was very intimidated and nervous on how I would do learning it as an adult. However, the environment and my personal experiences at Social Graces have proved to be very nurturing and accommodating. It is obvious that the curriculum was designed to meet the student at their level and progress comfortably through the levels. I have thoroughly enjoyed my lessons with all of the instructors and have found that all of them possess a great understanding for dance and dance instruction. I would recommend to all couples that "dance night" is an amazing way to get to know your partner better, and share a rewarding experience together. Students of all ages and levels would benefit greatly from dance lessons at Social Graces Ballroom dance and would enjoy every minute of it!

I thoroughly enjoy myself every time I go to Social Graces whether it is for private lessons, group lessons, social dances, and even the competitions. The studio is very friendly and family oriented. Through the private lessons, Freddie has helped me to become more confident in myself and encouraged me to get out there and dance even if it takes me asking the man to dance. How else am I going to build friendships and relationships unless Im using my two left feet and stepping on toes? Which I must add has improved since I started taking lessons. The other instructors in the studio also create a vibrant positive attitude. If you are looking for a fun, nonjudgmental, family friendly place to bring out those boogie shoes, then you have found the place! Go ahead, stop by Social Graces, kick off your Sunday shoes (replace with dance shoes) and stay a while!

After 3-years of study, practice, competitions, and special events, I have seen many changes take place. Yet, the studio continues to evolve, mature, and improve. The addition of Ray Bugnosen and Dan Calloway brought new dimension to the experience and new challenges for those seeking to improve as a dancer. Speaking of which, Freddies formation dance classes are a unique opportunity to rapidly expand your repertoire, partnership skills, and expertise. His classes are for anyone willing to take on the challenge. It is an extraordinary opportunity! Many other opportunities can be found among their diverse array of dances, techniques, lessons (both group and private), competitions, parties, special events, and showcase dances. There is something for almost everyone at Social Graces.

My husband and I started private dancing lessons at Social Graces about a month ago so we could dance at our sons upcoming wedding. We have found the lessons to be a lot of fun and we are planning to continue with them indefinitely. Freddie and Danielle have been great instructors. The studio is beautiful - its in a renovated historic building in downtown Berryville, and the studio itself is elegant and tastefully decorated. Just being in it inspires one to dance. Freddie, the owner, creates an atmosphere where everyone feels comfortable. We feel very fortunate to have a dance studio of this caliber in Berryville!

Social Graces was recommended to my husband and I when we were looking for dance lessons so that we didnt look like complete idiots at our daughters wedding. We had so much fun with the instructors and other people who take lessons and dance at Social Graces that we continued taking classes long after our daughters wedding. If we hadnt moved back to Arizona, we would still be attending all their functions. I cannot tell you how special everyone of these people are. Its been a year since we left and we still miss them. Excellent instruction. Great fun.

I recently became a widow and felt so alone, my daughter got me to sign up for dancing Instructions. Being nervous and very shy going to Social Graces brought me back to life. I feel better than I have felt for years. Everyone at Social Graces are kind and friendly and make you feel wanted. My instructor Fiano Behmardi has given me excellent training and urged me to keep coming. I enjoy this dancing and socializing so much. Thankful I checked Social Graces out and I will continue to keep dancing and so excited to keep learning and enjoying.

My family and I really enjoy the time we spend at Social Graces. We take group lessons, private lessons, and attend social dances. Its a great way to have fun together. Being able to dance is so cool! We love the instructors! They are talented, caring, and patient teachers. We have made wonderful friendships with the instructors and other students at the studio. I would highly recommend coming to this studio and taking some lessons to anyone who wanted to add some joy in their life. What fun and joy its added to ours.

We recently hired Freddie, a dance instructor with Social Graces in Purcellville, VA, to entertain our guests during my daughters wedding, while we were all getting photos done. It was a wonderful experience and our guests had a blast! His price was very reasonable and he was able to get our guests out on the floor (even the ones that never dance)! I have personally danced with him, and while I have two left feet myself, somehow he managed to keep me moving on the dance floor and actually appear graceful!

My wife and I took lessons at Social Graces for over two years...we would still be there on a weekly basis, except we had to relocate...missing our SG family. Freddie runs a class A business that simply treats everyone like theyre family. We were priveleged to be instructed by Danielle - phenomenal! The other instructors are very knowledgable as well...they always did a great job when they filled in for Danielle. If youre looking for dance lessons, simply dont go anywhere else...

Social Graces is a fantastic studio! The instructors are all incredibly friendly, professional, and kind. Freddie Ciampi, owner and instructor, is an amazing teacher and fabulous person. All of the students are lovely, friendly people eager to invite new students to participate. There are opportunities for group classes, private lessons, yearly formals, monthly dances and much more. The two dance floors are spacious and gorgeous. Truly, Social Graces lives up to its name!
