Fred Astaire Dance Studios - West Springfield

Have been a student here for four years and love it. It is a great place to meet new people, spend time with your spouse, get some exercise and dance. The staff are professionals and always go out of their way to make you feel less stressful than when you walked in. We always leave feeling energized..... more

I would really like to be able to give this studio a good review, but in all good conscious, I cannot. Unfortunately, the rude and unprofessional treatment by management outweighs any dance benefits one may get. Also, there are plenty of other studios in the area that offer superior instruction without the constraints of a contract, which this studio requires and which often exceed $5000 per year. But people continue to be sucked in by their pressure and promises. If you do decide to sign a contract, be sure to read the fine print on the back before signing. You will not be given time to read it there, so I would strongly recommend you ask if you can bring a copy of the back of it home to read first, before you sign. See how they react to that. If you are allowed to do that, you will be amazed at what you find on the back. I strongly encourage you to understand what you?re signing before you commit yourself. If you are laid off, are hurt, or move out of the area, you risk losing your money. Pros: null Cons: null more
