Dance is the method.
Transformation is the point.
For over 75 years we’ve turned “I could never do that” into a standard of excellence—one welcoming first step at a time.

Fred Astaire Dance Studios was founded on the one thing Mr. Astaire was known for above all else: a standard of excellence that never slipped. His elegance, precision, and joy in movement are the legacy every studio in our family carries forward today.
When you take Fred Astaire dance lessons, you’re joining a tradition that has welcomed beginners onto the floor for three-quarters of a century.
Our students come for confidence and leave standing taller. They come for fitness and discover a community.
The heart of what we doThree ways to learn, woven into one path
There’s no single “right” way to learn—so we build a path that fits you, and it grows as you do.
Private Lessons
One-on-one time with your instructor, at your own speed—no audience, no rush.
Group Classes
Relaxed, social settings where you practice with others who started where you are.
Practice Parties
The fun part—where everything you’ve learned comes together to music, among friends.
What makes us different
Instruction built around you
No two students share the same goals, so no two follow the same lessons. Yours are personalized from your first visit.
No partner needed.
While partners are more than welcome, if you don’t have one your instructor will act as your partner during lessons, and you’ll meet fellow students at our parties.
A genuinely supportive community
Our instructors see ability, not limitations. Celebrating your progress is part of the job.
All levels welcome
Beginners aren’t just accepted here—beginners are our specialty.
Four kinds of enrichment
Dance reaches further than most people expect—and our students feel all of it.
Physical
Movement, balance, and energy that never feels like a chore.
Mental
Learning, memory, and focus, kept sharp the enjoyable way.
Emotional
Confidence, joy, and a real sense of accomplishment.
Social
Friendships, connection, and belonging to something like family.
The hardest step is the first one
…and it’s far easier than you think. Come see what a personalized, no-pressure first lesson feels like—and discover why so many students wish they’d started sooner.
