FRED ASTAIRE FRANCHISE DANCE STUDIO REVIEWS

I was nervous to start but my fiance and I wanted to take some dance lessons to prepare for our wedding dance. I had to drag him to it but he ended up absolutely loving it so much that he wanted to extend our lessons. Fun couple activity! The instructors are great and so amazing to work with. We look forward to our lessons and have an absolute blast!:D Thank you!!.

What an amazing experience! Michel and his instructors are so professional, making learning to dance, fun and easy. This Fred Astaire studio feels like a family, so welcoming, patient and supportive. I went from having no knowledge at all of ballroom dancing to now feeling very confident on a dance floor. The lessons, the music, the facility are all incredible. This is by far the best dance studio and they deserve 6 stars or more!.

The instructors are really welcoming. They ease you into dancing and help you feel as though you know what you are doing right from the beginning.

ELEV8 DANCE INC REVIEWS

Honestly, the BEST dance studio in Hamilton. My daughter cannot wait for her dance classes every week thanks to Mr. Chris, the amazing dance teacher there, making each class such a fun and enjoyable learning experience! We’ve only been there about a month now, but we’ve already have fallen in love and know there are many great things to come :) I highly recommend this studio to anyone searching for one ! You most certainly will not regret your decision:).

my daughter enjoys her dance class with Chris. Chris is professional dancer who gives good tips and attitude to kids. atmosphere is great and communication is easy but respectful. Highly Recommend.

Mr Chris and Mr James are awesome! Clearly in it for all the right reasons. They have created a fantastic community of dancers and parents!.

NOT JUST ANOTHER DANCE STUDIO REVIEWS

My oldest daughter has danced at NJADS since 2012 when she was just 4 and is now turning 15! The relationships and bonds she has developed at the studio with peers, teachers and the staff have made her thrive and discover her passion for dance. Her teachers and studio owner Amanda have been the best role models for her and helped her in studio and out of studio. She wouldn’t be the amazing young lady she is today I think with out their input. We love our dance family.

This was my daughters first year of dance and she absolutely loved it! She got comfortable in the studio so quickly and has made many friends amongst both dancers and staff. We are looking forward to having Miss Natalie again for the 23-24 season - Thanks NJADS for welcoming us.

The NJADS Halloween party was so well organized. My daughter (3.5) had so much fun, came out beaming and asking to do it again. ‘Mommy I went in a haunted house!’ Thanks NJADS team for planning such a fun, memorable and kid friendly event.
