Fred Astaire Dance Studio, Princeton

The team of professional instructors at Fred Astaire Dance Studio of Princeton, which was cofounded by Astaire himself, coaches students of all ages and skill levels through lessons that span the style spectrum. Low-pressure private sessions allow enthusiastic teachers to fine-tune individual students' techniques and form, drawing from their extensive training and expertise.

For dancers hoping to take their skills to a social setting, group practice sessions provide a one-night event of instruction, demonstrations, and practice.
