  I love taking lessons at Fred Astaire Delray Beach! The instructors Clifton and Nicholas that I have worked with are very into explaining and demonstrating every step patiently while making it fun. I have learned so much in a short amount of time. The staff and dance community there are friendly and supportive. My hubby saw how much I was learning and decided to take lessons too! He really feels comfortable with his instructor, Sommer. I also appreciate that there are group lessons most of the week at night that cover different dances and the parties are really fun too.

  We worked with Sommer to choreograph our first dance for our wedding, and the experience was truly incredible! From the very beginning, Sommer (and everyone at the studio!) was warm, welcoming, and so supportive. Sommer made us feel completely at ease right away, and each session was not only productive but genuinely fun. We learned so much and always looked forward to our lessons. She made us feel confident and was our biggest cheerleader! We’re beyond excited for our wedding day and can’t wait to perform our dance in front of our loved ones. We’re so grateful for this amazing experience and highly recommend Sommer and the studio! ❤️

  I started dancing at FADS Delray Beach last September, and it was one of the best decisions. My instructor, Nico, is so patience, encouraging and supportive (and adorable). The owners, Mar and Cliff, are so professional and welcoming. Only regret is that I didn’t start dancing years earlier.

  Dmitriy has been an amazing teacher in helping us prepare for our wedding dance! Great choreography and helping a beginner like me look good!

  Response from Fred Astaire Dance Studios

  Hi Julian, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience! We’re so glad to hear your wedding dance preparation went so well and that you felt confident and looked great on such an important day—what a special moment! We’d like to gently note that Dmitriy is not a teacher at our studio, so your review may have been intended for another location. Nonetheless, it’s wonderful to hear about the positive impact he had, and we’re always happy to see great work being done within the dance community. Congratulations again, and we wish you a lifetime of happiness! Warm regards, Team Delray
