Fred Astaire Dance Studio of Madison is a beautiful space filled with amazingly talented and hard-working dance instructors who make every lesson fun and productive. The dedication to excellence of the owners, Christian and Paulo, is equaled only by their warmth and good humor resulting in a dance community where positivity and fun are at the fore-front of everything, lessons, group classes and especially the convivial practice parties. I feel so lucky to dance pro/am with Christian and Denys, truly two of the very best teachers and competitors.
Fred Astaire's Madison CT Studio offers dance lessons given by excellent instructors who will teach you from the basic to advanced dances with an easy to understand program that allows students to learn how to have the confidence to dance well. I highly recommend this studio for the quality and professionalism they maintain in a friendly environment.
I absolutely love the studio and the instructor's. It is a super friendly environment, and it is fun getting to know the other students. I thought I would have the 30 minute introductory lesson, and then be done with it. I was wrong! Now I go 4-5 days every week.
I've finally found a dance studio that I can call home. I'm soooo lucky that it is only 15 minutes from home, Madison -versus and hour which I had been doing 3 times a week! ( the gas expenditure alone was huge!)
There is so much about the studio that I love - the huge dance floor which is great for practicing smooth /standard (waltz, tango, foxtrot, viennese waltz), the wonderful facility complete with dressing room, showers with a place to leave your belongings during your lesson, and the topnotch, creative way the studio is always decorated for each holiday/ happening ( ex: Wizard of Oz, Alice in Wonderland, Valentine Day, New Year Party, Ukrainian Day). The instructors are wonderful at putting in hours of preparation for just the right decor under the masterful tutelage of our AMAZING Paulo!!! Plus, the fact that there is a practice party every Friday to do just that- practice what you have learned during the week.
The instructors and students that are a part of this studio are so much fun! Every instructor is an accomplished dancer having danced his/her entire life. You need only to watch one recording of their professional dancing career to know you are in the best studio to become the best dancer you can be. I never thought I could be the caliber of dancer I have become after taking lessons for one year with Denys, plus Khrystyna and Christian for coaching. In addition, Daria and Dmytro are my go to for moving my body in directions I never knew I could.
So come and join our family! You'll never regret that you did. See you on the dance floor. Save me a dance!

Awesome instructors! I love Denys and Khrystyna! Have been dancing here since it opened! The studio is beautiful and comfortable! I was originally dancing at the old Saybrook studio also owned by Christian and Paulo. I have been dancing since seventh grade and I am now a sophomore in college. I love all the events and all the people. The ballroom community is truly amazing.
Fabulous dance studio. Great teachers. Wonderful community. Come join the fun!
