About Fred Astaire Dance Studios of Oregon

We teach all styles and levels of social & competitive ballroom dance to students ranging in age from 5 to 85! We LOVE to dance, but even more so, we recognize the impact that learning to dance has on each individual and couple. The positive effect on the body, mind, and social/emotional wellbeing that takes place in the process is a gift truly greater than the sum of its parts. It is our great honor to cultivate a space that challenges foregone conclusions, makes stepping outside of yourself a rewarding habit, and fosters joy and connection every step of the way. With studios in Lake Oswego and Beaverton, we’re on a mission to continue reaching further into our communities with the belief that “Life is better when you dance!”

We hope you’ll join us this October as we celebrate our Nation, the great freedoms we enjoy, and the men and women who give so much in service to us all, at the third annual Dancing With Our Heroes Charity Gala. Want to feel confident and comfortable dancing at this event or the next wedding you attend? Try out our proven interrelated teaching method with an Introductory Special that makes learning to dance simple and fun.
