+ Private/Semi-Private Lessons

Move With Grace offers private and semi-private lessons at our convenient Durham studio located at 4015 University Dr. Suite K, Durham, NC 27707.

Private Lessons
Private lessons are the most individualized and in-depth method of instruction Move With Grace offers. Because the student or couple is working one-on-one with the instructor, the instructor is able to provide individually-tailored instruction and recommendations designed to give the student or couple the maximum benefit for the 40-minute lesson. If you are looking to quickly improve your dancing, then private lessons may be for you!

Private lessons are $115 per person/couple for single lessons, $440 for a monthly package which includes 4 individual lessons, or $760 for a monthly package of 8 lessons. Lessons are 40 minutes long.

Semi-Private Lessons
Semi-private lessons are designed to give students the benefit of more individualized instruction while also creating a fun social atmosphere. These lessons are intended for groups of 3-6 people. Semi-private lessons are the perfect fusion between group and private lessons, so grab a couple friends and give it a try!

Semi-private lessons are $115 for the first two people plus $10 per each additional person, up to 8 people, for each 40-minute lesson.

+ Group Classes

Group classes are vital to expanding your horizons whether you are a social or competitive dancer.
