Both of my daughters have been dancing here since they were 18…read moremonths old--now they're 7 and 5--and it's been such a positive experience every step of the way. The classes are always age-appropriate, with just the right balance of fun and challenge as they've progressed. The recital costumes are adorable and thoughtfully chosen for each age group. We've had the chance to work with many of the teachers over the years, and every one of them has been wonderful. The office staff is also incredibly supportive and welcoming. This studio has truly nurtured and grown my girls' love for dance!

I may not be the typical student for this studio but I couldn't help but take a moment to rave…read moreabout my experiences so far. I live in Nashville and take my lessons at a studio there. But I come here for work and in the weeks I spend in the area I WANT to dance. So last year (2023) I just dropped by and asked to join a group class. They were more than welcoming and made me feel comfortable in the class at my current level. Well tonight I came back after some time away and the lady at the front greeted me (remembering me!) and the instructors were amazing just like last time. I can say I highly recommend! If I lived here full time, I'd be a full time student without any doubt. Thanks!

We had such a great experience taking private lessons at Fred Astaire Dance Studio for our wedding…read moredance. Our instructor, Kage Hart, was incredibly encouraging, patient, and helpful throughout the entire process. He made us feel comfortable right away and broke everything down in a way that made learning easy and fun. Kage really took the time to make sure the dance fit us as a couple and helped build our confidence so we could enjoy the moment on our wedding day. If you're preparing for your first dance, I highly recommend working with Kage and the team at Fred Astaire. It was such a fun part of our wedding journey and made our first dance feel so special!

When we took our first lesson with Kaylin, neither of us had taken any kind of dance class before…read moreand we weren't really sure what song or even what type of dance we wanted to do. Kaylin got right to work, starting by helping us build strong dancing fundamentals and pick a first song-offering lots of suggestions to hone in on a song that felt like us, feel confident, and have fun while dancing. We ended up taking 6 lessons with her. In each lesson she taught us new moves, refined what we had learned previously, and listened to any adjustments we wanted to make to the choreography. Throughout the process she was incredibly kind and thoughtful-always asking us for permission to dance with us before making physical contact, adapting our choreography to accommodate physical constraints (like reducing spins to prevent dizziness), and validating our choices so we felt confident in the dance we were making. In our last lessons together, she also had really great input on our grand entrance-helping us choose a song and giving us tips on how to transition into our dance, which made everything flow smoothly on the wedding day. She even did a full dress rehearsal with us that helped keep our nerves in check on our special day. It was awesome to go from having virtually no dance experience to feeling like we'd picked up a new hobby by the end. Kaylin took our wedding preparation seriously and in addition to ending up with a dance that us and our guests all absolutely loved, her support elevated other parts of our wedding day. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful, professional, and personalized dance experience.

My daughter joined their competition crew with zero dance experience other than a 3-day camp elsewhere that taught jazz, ballet, hip hop. She loved hip hop so much that I scoured the internet for a place that could ONLY offer hip hop. It's a crazy added bonus that she is obsessed with k-pop and this studio also teaches that genre!! The level of commitment for the crew is akin to a professional dancer, however, this is preparing my daughter for a professional career in the industry so she will be ready for anything if that day comes!!

Considerable difficulty getting in touch with anyone through both email and phone (MANY unreturned…read moremessages). Staff seems stretched too thin and instructors don't seem to always know what's going on have been quick to anger (scold entire classes, shame individuals in front of the class, or send mixed messages) which has been discouraging and stressful to many of the girls even if they aren't the one directly in the firing line. While class prices are reasonable, recital and costume fees are astronomical compared to other studios (especially considering some outfits are sourced through SHEIN are very low cost) and you are still required to purchase specific earrings and makeup- so plan on $300+ per recital... you will also be required to shell out more for tickets to actually see your child perform which could be multiple times over 2-3 days. Also be aware that some of the classes for older girls have had routines and costumes that are not always quite appropriate for someone under 18 and are borderline objectionable- not only uncomfortable for the dancer but also many times for the audience. If you're looking for anything above a basic class for a young beginner, I'd suggest checking out other studios that might be a better fit.

They were full of energy for the 90 mins. Even the class was rev'ed up! I was getting energy from the class and the instructors, I think that's what pulled me through this class. I throughly enjoyed todays Zumba class and hope to do more in the future.

It's a great way to get some exercise without feeling like a gym rat. Club Jennifit is owned by Jennifer Shelby (jennifershelby.zumba.com). As of July 2016, I've been to a few Zumba Master Classes for Jennifer Shelby co-teaching with other Zumba instructors. She has great energy and is really passionate. (I've also seen her lose a lot of weight too over the two years!) I just don't make it up to North County San Diego as much as I would like since I live further south in San Diego.

My introverted five year daughter who had never taken a dance class decided she wanted to take a…read morehip hop class. After getting off the waitlist she was eager to begin. We arrive and instructor was rude saying you aren't scheduled for a trial today. I told him I could get out my email confirming our trial. I showed him the email confirming her trial. While we were sorting this out the kids in the class were chatting. He then yells at them "do you want to start class with a strike. Legs crossed, arms in lap, don't talk". I wanted to walk out at this point but my daughter would be so disappointed. He agreed reluctantly she could join the class. I ask if I could watch class he said "no, but since she is new today I'll open the blinds the last two minutes of class". Then after class he says in front of my daughter "as you can see when we went fast she just stood there. When we went slower she did follow along. I don't think she is a good fit for this class but if you want to come back for a second trial we can see how she does after that." I was shocked. I had already decided we weren't coming back based on how he treated the students but he literally decided my five year old wasn't good enough to do beginners 5-7 year old hip hop. And he said all this in front of her. Talk about soul crushing. Needless to say, she was dejected. I put her on a waitlist for another dance studio and a few months later despite the previous rejection I was proud of her for joining another beginner hip hop class. I was able to watch the entire first class and the teacher kindly welcomed her. She has been loving hip hop class at this other studio ever since! Needless to say, I cannot recommend this studio for 5-7 year old beginner hip hip despite the studio's popularity.
