My fiancé and I have been taking dance lessons here leading up to our wedding for our first dance. Olga was our fabulous instructor and we couldn’t be more pleased with our experience. She choreographed the most fun, uplifting, *beginner-friendly* routine for us that involved rumba and hustle. I have to mention environment of the studio as well, which is positive, encouraging and welcoming to all. We were greeted with big smiles and welcoming words every time we walked through the door. As a couple, we found it fun and connecting. Highly recommend! We’re hooked and will definitely be back after we get married next week :)

For a birthday gift, a friend gifted my (now) husband and I a dance lesson at Fred Astaire and we used it to prep for our first dance. our instructor was Olga, and after 1 session we signed up for a few more dance lessons to choreograph and solidify our first dance routine. Olga was absolutely amazing and a wonderful teacher. My husband and I do not dance at all, and Olga was so patient and really helped us pick out dance steps that we would be comfortable with. I felt like we improved so much after each lesson and we loved how our first dance came out! Highly recommend for couples who want to take dance lessons before their wedding!

We took lessons with Julia for our first dance for our wedding. It was SUCH an incredible experience. The classes are so fun and made for a great date night. We loved Julia as an instructor, as well as the entire Fred Astaire community. Julia listened to our preferences and made sure that our dance looked polished while still feeling like “us”.

So many of our friends said they were incredibly impressed with our dance! This was by far our favorite part of wedding planning.

I ended up taking some Father-Daughter dance lessons with Julia as well, and again 11/10 experience.

My husband and I, as a New Year’s resolution, started weekly dance lessons as date night. This must be the only New Year’s resolution that we have continued as long as we have! It’s because it is fun, engaging and great exercise! We are learning salsa, swing and rumba and also a showcase dance choreographed to our own song choice. Natalia and Renat are our teachers, and they are fun, like to have a laugh (like us), patient and pros at what they do! Their enthusiasm is infectious, and they are very supportive. Highly recommended!

This was my first time learning dance and it was so fun. I had private lessons with my partner and loved our instructor Olga! She is the best. She makes it super easy for beginners! Will definitely come back once life gets less busy.
