Who we are in Clarkston:

My name is Daniel Rutherford, and I am the owner of the Clarkston Michigan Fred Astaire Dance Studio. In 2016 I began taking ballroom dance lessons at Fred Astaire Dance Studios after a personal loss. I had no dance experience and was scared to death to sign up alone. My dance instructors helped me find my creative side and today I compete as an amateur at Pro Am ballroom dance competitions. Dance has brought tremendous JOY to my life, and I want to help our team and our students to experience the JOY of dancing! Take the scary step today and explore joining our Clarkston team!

Who we are across the nation:

Fred Astaire Dance Studios is the leader in ballroom dance instruction across the country and around the world. Founded in 1947 with one studio on Park Avenue in Manhattan, we have grown our franchise network to over 200 dance studio locations continuing the legacy of Mr. Fred Astaire.

People ask, "Why do students stay with Fred Astaire Dance Studios?" It is because of the atmosphere of kindness, warmth and care given and received at every location. It's what our students tell us they notice from the first time they step inside our studio - an energy and sense of "FADS community" that is welcoming, non-judgmental, and FUN!

Fred Astaire Dance Studios has something for everyone. We offer group and private lessons, choreograph wedding dances or just prepare the happy couple and wedding party for the big day, provide opportunities to perform in beautiful venues, host local parties for dance practice and comradery and we host an average of 35 spectacular branded National, Inter-Regional and Regional Dance Competitions annually giving our students and professionals opportunities to compete in a variety of categories.
