My husband and I had our very first professional dance lesson at Fred Astaire in Brookfield, with Bella as our instructor. We had a great experience! Very fun, and the community there is so welcoming. If you're thinking about it, I highly recommend you give it a try!

My husband and I had an incredible time taking lessons for our first dance prior to our wedding. Bella was such a great instructor and was so flexible with our crazy schedules in the month leading up to our wedding. She helped to put together a beautiful routine and made it so fun for us every time we came in to practice. We will definitely be back for date night dance lessons!

I experienced a huge setback in walking,(much less in Dancing) when it became very apparent it was necessary to correct my right foot alignment with major foot reconstruction surgery last April. The operation was done on April 2nd with eight weeks of no weight on the foot, followed by weeks in a walking boot. After that it was very careful limited walking with a cane . When I finally went back to see Arthur and Alexis they quickly recognized there was no way I was ready for dancing BUT NEEDED WALKING AND BALANCE LESSONS which continues today with Alexis . Things have improved to the point where I can roll my foot ,transfer my weight and learn to dance better than before the operation. I owe my my "Quality of life" to my FRED ASTAIRE Dance Professionals dedication to their profession! I wrote this for two reasons, First , TO thank Alexis and Arthur and second, For others to realize the the unknown benefits of Fred Astaire dancing. Thank you!

James has been a wonderful instructor. My wife and I learned a difficult first dance with him, and he was almost more enthusiastic about it then we were. We have thoroughly enjoyed our time at Fred Astair in Brookfield, and we look forward to continued dancing there.

FADS has truly been a journey of wonderment, creativity, and adaptability. I have been dancing at Brookfield for a little over a year. As a para-athlete, wheelchair ballroom dancing offers graceful movement, physicality of a truly individualized concept, and an overall sense of inclusion. It has been a blessing getting to know all the staff, and to explore the opportunities adaptive dance has to offer. If you're looking for para-dance instructors or otherwise, definitely check these guys out!

Response from the owner · 4 years ago

Hello Martha! We're grateful to know that your experience with us has been an amazing one! It has truly been a pleasure having you with us and are so happy to be able to provide opportunities for adaptive dance. Thank you for being such an amazing part of our dance family and we look forward to continuing to watch you accomplish so much more! Cheers to many more memories!
