4 Arthur Murray Live Studios in Worldwide Top 12

BAY AREA, CALIFORNIA - Northern California is known for having some great things.  Businesses like Google, Facebook, and Apple are recognized throughout the world.  Sports teams like the Giants, Sharks, and Warriors have all achieved incredible feats and accomplishments.  

The Bay Area is now a hotbed for Arthur Murray Dance Studios.

Northern California now holds one third of the top 12 dance studio locations in the world.  As of the Spring of 2016, and for the first time since it was opened in 2008, the Livermore Studio crossed the top ranking school threshold within the worldwide dance organization.  Joining them are Redwood City, Hayward, and Walnut Creek

The rankings are released on a weekly basis by Arthur Murray International, and include nearly 300 locations, on 6 continents, and 32 countries.  The top overall studio is located in Fort Worth, Texas, but 4 of the top studios are located right here in Northern California.  12 studios are included in this elite grouping, and since qualifying, all four Arthur Murray Live locations have maintained that top designation.

For owners, Chris and Daisey Lynam, and for the staff of Livermore, Hayward, Walnut Creek, and Redwood City, this is their primary metric for the training, teamwork, and atmosphere in each of their studios.

"We are so happy for Livermore to reach this incredible milestone.  To join with our other top studios says so much about how far they've come as a team, and the kind of atmosphere they've created" says co-owner, Daisey Lynam

"But all of these great things couldn't be possible," she continues, "if it weren't for the fantastic students who have chosen our studios to teach them how to dance, and to enjoy the life changing benefits off the dance floor."
