Fred Astaire Dance Studio of Brookfield

If you want to take dance lessons for your wedding day or some other social event, Fred Astaire Brookfield is a fantastic choice. Here is my experience…
I initially went to Fred Astaire Brookfield so my fiancé and I could take some lessons and dance better at our wedding, which was in just 2 months. We both had very little exposure to dancing and were nervous at first. Our instructor was so fantastic. In that short time she taught us some basic concepts about dance, helped us choose a song for our «First Dance», and choreographed a short routine. It was an absolute highlight of our Wedding Day and now, two years later, our families still talk about it. And we are still dancing together!!!
The studio offers a spectrum of instructional and social opportunities. You could be a casual dance student or there is the option to dance competitively at a regional or national level. Most of the lessons we have taken are private 1-​on-​1 lessons, however, there are group classes with interesting topics, as well. And they bring in highly accomplished, national coaches occasionally. There are in-​studio themed dance parties, which are fun and reinforce concepts learned in lessons. And throughout the year, they plan some out-​of-​studio excursions, too. My husband and I have done some local performances and regional competitions. And we have discovered a life-​long hobby that has taught us things about each other and about ourselves, which we never would have found out otherwise.
Fred Astaire Brookfield is one of the best run businesses in the Greater Milwaukee area. The level of consistent and sincere professionalism is unmatched. The management team and support staff is top-​notch. The instructors are extremely qualified in their own professional dancing careers, as well as being able to translate and adapt the skills and knowledge they have acquired to fit the needs of the students.
It is a pleasure to be a part of something where good manners, graciousness, friendliness, and chivalry abound!

I never thought I would ever take ballroom dancing classes, but I went in to take a lesson for a friend and got totally hooked. The teachers are wonderful and you feel like you’ve been adopted into a family:). It is a lot of fun and I leave each lesson feeling happy.
Only con to this place is the price. Very expensive! I would be there all the time if only I could afford it:)

The absolute worst place. Tried to enroll in a class, called the same day to find out it had been cancelled and was given a new class start date. Called to confirm the week before and the class was moved to another night. Was called by the instructor to say the class had been cancelled, but another instructor was giving a ‘similar’ class on the original night now. Sadly I doubt they will ever have the class. How do you give out class start dates and prices and never actually have the class locked down? Very unprofessional and I will never go there now because they don’t have it together.
