Tony and Elise are amazing owners, teachers, and professional ballroom performers. Very patient. Focus on individual student growth. The studio embodies a family environment that is welcoming and fun! I look forward to dancing every day here. If you are interested in ballroom dancing for fun or at a higher level then do not hesitate to try it out. You will not regret it.
Im fairly new to the ballroom dancing experience and I picked Planet Ballroom due to its proximity to home and great reviews. Boy, was I even happier once I got to check it out in person? Tony gave my first complimentary lesson and I also got to meet all the other amazing instructors that evening (hey, gals!). I signed up for a package deal with lessons and classes and I have had such fun! Its been an amazing learning process, but also a great way to better my fitness, flexibility, and confidence.The place is beautiful, clean and organized and the energy is very positive. Im telling you: Im a novice, not really that graceful, and have so much to learn still... but everyone is amazingly kind and patient, which makes every step such a joy! I recommend Planet Ballroom to anyone looking to get out of their comfort zone, try something new and have fun while at it!Thank you, Tony and team!
I can very honestly say that taking dance lessons with Tony, of Planet Ballroom, has changed my life for the better. Ballroom & Latin dancing was always something that I knew I would love. And I do. I only wish that I had started much sooner.Planet Ballroom is my home away from home, and my dance journey has been amazing.Tony is everything that you would want in a teacher. He is incredibly passionate, talented, creative, and patient. He has my implicit trust on the dance floor, and I will be forever grateful for having met him and having the opportunity to call him my dance instructor for over 4 years. If you are considering ballroom and Latin dance lessons, you must visit him at Planet Ballroom of Jacksonville Beach. Dont think about. Just do it. It will be one of the best decisions you ever make.
My wife and I received a gift certificate from our daughter for dance lessons which, truth be told, I was not overly thrilled about initially (my wife, however, was.) Tony did the introductory lesson and we were matched up with Ami as our instructor. Ami was absolutely wonderful and patient with us (mostly me) and we had a great time. We are absolute beginners and Ami broke down everything step by step so that it built on itself each lesson. This made the learning process very enjoyable and not intimidating. We ended up signing up for several more months of lessons after we had used the gift certificate and greatly enjoyed the whole process. As an instructor, Ami is the perfect combination of professionalism and personality and, of course, shes a great dancer. She always had a well prepared lesson plan ready for us to reinforce what we had learned and add on to it. My wife and I found it fun to learn something new together and even get a little exercise in the process. I would highly recommend giving it a try.
Dancing at this studio has been the best experience for me! The instructors are all very professional and talented. I would recommend this studio without any hesitation, no matter what your level of experience is
We did an intro/sampling session at Planet Ballroom tonight with Elise and it was fantastic! She made us feel very comfortable and confident and her coaching was really helpful! Well definitely be making plans to sign up in the near future!!
What started as lessons for a wedding has turned into our hobby as a couple. Everyone is friendly. There is no pressure but excellent dance instruction. We love it.
Best place ever to learn ballroom dancing
