Q: Which is better, private lessons or group classes?
We recommend starting with private lessons as they offer personalized instruction, allowing you to progress at your own pace and meet your specific goals. However, a combination of private lessons and group classes is ideal. Group classes provide a mix of partner work and basic techniques, enhancing your leading and following skills. The choice between them depends on your budget, goals, and learning style, giving you the flexibility to tailor your learning experience. https://www.fredastaire.com/chesapeakeeast/introductory-offer/

Q: How long does it take to learn to dance?
It depends on how often you come, how good you want to get, and how many dances you want to learn. Learning the basics typically requires just a handful of lessons. Feeling confident enough to dance to any music with any partner usually takes some time, but your progress will depend on your dedication and practice. Your instructor will guide you on the best path to achieve your dancing goals after your first lesson.

Q: What type of shoes should I bring to my first lesson?
When starting dance lessons, it's important to choose shoes that provide comfort, support, and the right amount of grip for the type of dance you'll be learning. Consider starting with ballroom dance shoes. These shoes typically have suede soles that provide the right amount of grip and allow for smooth movements. Ballroom shoes also come in different styles for men and women.

Q: What should we wear for dance lessons?
We realize that some Students arrive for lessons straight from the office, and others may be dressed more casually for their lessons – either is fine. The most important thing is to wear something comfortable, which allows you to move easily. Of course, you’ll also want to select comfortable shoes.

Absolutely incredible studio with truly amazing people. You can feel the passion for teaching and love for dance the moment you walk in. The level of dedication and expertise is evident right away, and it creates such a welcoming and inspiring environment. I’ve spent most of my life feeling uncomfortable with dancing, but Vitaliy’s supportive attitude, patience, and genuine acceptance have completely changed that for me. He has a rare ability to make you feel confident, capable, and encouraged no matter your starting point. This studio has helped me build confidence not just in dance, but in myself, and I’m genuinely excited to continue learning, growing, and dancing more than I ever thought I would. Highly recommend to anyone — beginners included!

I cannot say enough good things about the experience I have had at this dance studio. I started ballroom dancing a little over a month ago and Vitalii has been an amazing instructor! He made learning each dance enjoyful and easy so that I could grasp the basic fundamentals and elements of each dance. I am usually very busy and do not usually make alot of time for myself to go out, but after months of being interested I decided to give it a go and am so happy that I did. All three instructors make the atmosphere very relaxed and enjoyable to help you feel more comfortable. I would highly recommend this dance studio to anyone interested in learning to dance!

My husband and I love Fred Astaire Chesapeake. We had talked about wanting to go for years and then we were invited to the beginner class. We loved it and signed up for private lessons that night. The group lessons are also a lot of fun. The instructors are great and so much fun. If you are not coming, you are missing out on a great time!
