Reviews

Most former students have yet to fox trot to their computers to write online reviews, but two Yelpers give Fred Astaire Dance Studio a solid four stars:

• We took a sample lesson where we learned the fox trot, rumba, and swing all in a half hour. I was skeptical as to how we'd learn three dances in a half hour, but amazingly, we were able to get the basic steps....The staff was very friendly and the studio space was great. – Kimberly F.
• The best part about our dance lesson was our instructor in how she made us laugh and we felt very comfortable as beginners. – Dee W.
