We have so much to celebrate, we won First Place Formation with the score of 97, 3rd place winner Top Studio Extravaganza Team Match and The Most Spirit School.
We are so very proud of every student from our school, it is so great to see how all the hard work is paying off. Our students put so much time and energy into their lessons and you can not even describe the feeling when you place first and get recognized in front of hundreds of people. Choreographed by our dance instructors, The South Windsor Dance Formation “Indian Fairy Tale” made everyone gasp for more.
“Dance is a sport that can be very beneficial to our health” said Fred Astaire South Windsor Director Christian Lange. Explained “One of our students told me that she’s having fun learning dance routines that she can perform despite medical issues. Dancing is for anyone.

“Sometimes people get the wrong perception about our studio when they read about all the events and competitions we are doing. First and foremost, we are a social studio and our Fred Astaire System is designed to make you the best social dancer you can be. Competitions are a direction some of our students choose to take in order to advance their dancing skills, since the lessons are more intensely structured. Everyone should experience at least once in their lives how it feels to waltz, cha cha and foxtrot across the floor.”
Both directors expressed their gratitude to students for participating. “We had so much fun preparing for this event. We are now getting ready for the Fred Astaire World Championships in Las Vegas, at the Mirage Hotel this July.
