Where to Take Adult Dance Classes in Nashville

Are you one of those people who looks forward to going to weddings just so you can break out on the dance floor? I am. I'm all about some old school '90s beats and hip hop rhythms. I'll tear it up to "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" or "YMCA" any day! Don't even get me started on Outkast and 50 Cent.

Of course, there are those wedding guests who enjoy a good slow jam too. And there's the group (I'm a member) that can't resist a synchronized "Electric Slide."

If you, too, love to get your groove on and are looking for a place to do it on a regular basis, here are the best places to take adult dance classes in Nashville.
