This dance studio was co-founded in 1947 by renowned dancer, Fred Astaire. Born in 1899, this multi-talented legend began his career performing on Broadway at four years old. After taking his skills to Hollywood, he appeared in movies with famous actors such as Joan Crawford, Judy Garland, and Debbie Reynolds. He is even credited with changing the techniques used to film dance scenes, making the audience feel as if they were watching performers on stage. Upon retiring from his Tinseltown career, Fred sought to establish a chain of studios so that his techniques would be passed on for generations. Since he passed in 1987, Fred Astaire Dance Studios has honored his legacy by training an abundance of amateur and professional dancers.

My husband and I took dance lessons before our wedding. We went to Fred Astaire Dance Studios in Latham to find out more information, and it was so easy to book!
We LOVED our dance...
instructors Roman and Hanna. We did 10 lessons, 5 with just Roman and 5 with Roman and Hanna. It was awesome and so easy! They created a unique dance just for us to our song. It was really impressive to watch them create the dance, and they worked with us to make sure it had our flair as well. We were a little nervous going into this, as it's the first ballroom dancing we've done, but they quickly made us feel at ease. And Roman is so funny, he had us laughing every practice, which helped with the nerves. They're just like one big dancing family and were so welcoming!
At the last practice you perform for everyone in the studio and they were cheering and clapping for us every step of the way!
The lessons were really reasonably priced too.
We ended up surprising everyone at our wedding with a gorgeous dance!
THANK YOU Roman and Hanna! We hope to come back again and learn more dances just for fun.
If you're looking for a dance studio, look no further, this place is the BEST!
