“I came to A Step to Gold because they offer the Ballroom Teacher’s College and am seeking my DVIDA Certification. It’s a wonderful opportunity to expand my ballroom dance abilities and knowledge.” - Chris James, Wake Tech Instructor
"My wife and I have been students at A Step To Gold for over 10 years. We've learned plenty along the way, but the best part has been all of the wonderful people we've met. The teachers are committed, and the ballroom is a joy to visit. Plus it's locally owned and operated, not part of some big chain.
Melanie and the crew are the best!" - Mark Weldon, Jazz Disc Jockey, Shaw University
