Reviews
One Yahoo! Local user gives Fred Astaire five stars, and Yelpers give four stars:
- We have taken lessons with other studios (to see if cheaper studios are just as good), but Fred Astaire is the most professional, consistently amazing, and just, well, good. – Vanessa S., Yelp
- I went there for my first lesson last week, and was pleasantly surprised. Everyone there was very nice, and I am now looking forward to taking dancing lessons. – Taco Joe, Yahoo! Local
Fred Astaire Dance Studios
The consortium of professional instructors at Fred Astaire Dance Studios, which was cofounded by the legendary toe tapper himself, shepherds 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, using their expert eyes and mechanical dancing shoes preprogrammed to do the Charleston. Patrons can learn how to cavort through classic waltz and foxtrot romps or swivel through the modern steps of salsa, swing, or samba. For dancers hoping to hoof it up in a social setting, the group practice parties provide a one-night extravaganza of instruction, demonstrations, and amateur firewalking.
