When checking out studios, ask to observe a class. Talk to some students to get their opinions. You might want to try a small studio that offers more hands-on personal attention than a place that relegates beginners to the back of the room and the instructor won't even talk to you until survive a month of fumbling around.
You are entrering a whole new world, and its an exciting one. Enjoy and feel free to e-mail me if you have other questions.[/i]
