My fiancé and I have had a wonderful experience at Fred Astaire MF. The teachers, Azure, Arthur, & Shem (to name a few), have been incredible! The entire studio is kind & welcoming every time we come in for a lesson. Coming to the studio is my favorite part of the day!

My daughter Gretchen has been dancing at this studio for over eight years. They continue to challenge her to complete each piece of her dance program. They treat the entire family as family. I really appreciate them raising the bar and making her stretch to attain her goals. Even though she is differently abled, she fits right in.

I’ve been with Fred Astaire since February 2025. I’m amazed at the transformation of body, mind, and soul that occurs through dancing. I’m 76 years old which means you can start at any age.
