Swing Dance Lessons in Sandy Springs
As the song goes: “It don’t mean a thing if it ain’t got that swing!” When New York big bands began to swing in the 1920s, dancers took to their feet, creating iconic styles such as the Charleston, the Balboa and the Lindy Hop.
Thanks to its uplifting music, engaging social interaction and physical benefits, partygoers on both sides of the Atlantic became hooked on Swing dancing. At Arthur Murray Dance Studios, we focus on three main styles of Swing: East Coast Swing, Lindy Hop, and West Coast Swing.
Lindy Hop Dance Lessons
Named in honor of aviator Charles “Lucky Lindy” Lindbergh, this dance is highly revered by enthusiasts, especially those who have a deep appreciation of the history and culture of Swing dancing. Accompanied by fast-tempo music, the Lindy Hop dazzles with syncopated shuffles and energetic kicks, showcasing a thrilling blend of agility and flair, stylishly inspired by the Charleston.
West Coast Swing Lessons
When the music slows down, “Westies” step up, executing smooth, precise movements with a laid-back swagger that defines the quintessential cool of West Coast Swing. Originating from California in the 1940s and dubbed “Sophisticated Swing”, this dance stands in elegant contrast to the riotous Lindy Hop.

David and Riley are two of the best teachers around! David is so fabulous at breaking things down and explaining things to where I could understand it. He also has THE Best laugh and gives the best hugs!! And Riley has such a calming presence, is so graceful and gives the best pointers on arm stylings! Sign up for a class today- you won’t regret it! It was one of the best decisions I’ve made in my life! 💃
After retirement, I started dancing at Arthur Murray. David led a Latin Cardio class and he made it fun to dance and exercise at the same time. Moving on to lessons, David’s skills and passion for dance helped me learn many Smooth, Rhythm and Specialty dances, gain confidence and eventually compete in competitions. He always made you feel special. Sandy Springs students should feel blessed to have David and Rilley available to fulfill their dreams to get out on the dance floor or even compete in a competition. Best of luck with your new adventure. Can’t wait to visit and have a spin around the dance floor.
