Fred Astaire Dance Studio of Bloomington has received dozens of reviews with a perfect average rating of 5.00 stars, earning them a fantastic Rating Score™ of 96.00 and a 2019 Top Rated Local award for ranking among the top five dance schools and studios in all of Indiana!

Here’s just one of the many five-star reviews that got them there:

“My wife and I had a dance lesson for a special occasion. Oksana and Dmitriy are both so enthusiastic about their work and such patient instructors; I think they would set anyone at ease. Clearly, they have been doing this forever. At moments when I was less confident (and I swear I did not telegraph it), she sensed it and responded with positive feedback. We had a wonderful time. They seem to be fantastic people performing work that is their calling. I’m sure this accounts for the large group of folks we watched finish up prior to our appointment. Positive recommendation.” – Ryan R.
