I’ve experienced private lessons, group lessons, a dance party every week, met with coaches from around the world to level up technique and styling, participated in events with other studios and received feedback from judges during dance competitions. The totality of the experience has already come to life for me in four months with thanks to the creative energy and consummate professionalism demonstrated by James Dutton, AM-OBT Franchisee, and the AM-OBT world-class dance instructors and staff.
When I first started, my intent simply was to fulfill a childhood dream. Upon achieving my initial goal of performing a waltz and talking with a partner while dancing, I felt satisfied. However, something was missing. I didn’t know what. Fortunately, the AM-OBT dance instructors and staff observed my ambition and work ethic. They fed my curiosity and love of learning with new concepts and ideas.
My gratitude to:
Amy for a warm welcome and positive management leadership.
Allie for serving as the consummate AM-OBT Brand Ambassador and at the ready to offer a response to any question.
Adrian for a caring, enthusiastic, and smiling disposition on all the dances.
Mykolas for leading with a holistic Renaissance mindset while layering on a multitude of dance elements.
Sarah for fastidious attention to the small, yet key details associated with footwork and timing.
Thanks to the talented dance instructors and staff at AM-OBT, it’s been an emotionally, intellectually, mentally, and physically rewarding experience. The AM-OBT instructors and staff display a laudable commitment and dedication to dance and teaching others. Their consistent advocacy for students merits applause. I highly recommend learning how to dance at Arthur Murray-Oakbrook Terrace.
Mykloas S., my primary dance instructor, developed a rigorous dance program of learning for me. Despite my overt awkwardness with dancing on display, interspersed with the occasional epic light bulbs going off to build dancing muscle memory, under his generous tutelage I scaled a steep learning curve. Even when the steps, patterns and weight shift changes eluded me, his drills and endless patience as well as affirmative, diplomatic feedback helped me make tremendous progress, exceeding my own determination, learning, performance and self-awareness expectations.
What’s been amazing about the experience over the past four months is what and how much I’ve learned (and retained!). It’s been years since I’ve had a learning experience like the one Mykolas provided to me. And in this case, we demonstrated transforming a leader into a follower is a surmountable endeavor requiring abundant acts of candor, emotional intelligence, humility, integrity, patience, trust, and uninhibitedness displayed consistently by dance partners. To complement my proficiency in these social behaviors, I learned, specifically from Mykolas, the importance of working with a few pieces of the dance at a time rather than taking on all the parts of a dance at once. Discovering the dance pieces fit together in unexpected ways, neither correct nor incorrect, is just the way. Accepting ‘the way’ helped me let go of my over-thinking on multiple fronts. These lessons have helped me strengthen my approach to dancing and life in general.
The extraordinary discovery in all of this is Mykolas’s brilliant mind in seeking solutions to facilitate learning for students. As well, he has a tremendous gift in understanding dancing with a partner, seeing and feeling things the student may not necessarily experience. The discoveries and gifts, when combined, give great rise to a meaningful and purposeful experience for a dance student’s journey. It’s been an honor and privilege to learn from him, and one that I do not take lightly. I look forward to continued learning with Mykolas. read less
