The instructors are the best and very welcoming! We've been with the studio for over 3 years following our wonderful wedding first dance. I couldn't recommend FADS Glastonbury more, and we've built a solid dance community since joining!

My husband & I have enjoyed dancing together over 10 yrs thanks to the Glastonbury studio's great teachers and a wonderful community of friends. We love their private lessons tailored to your needs, group lessons (that help reinforce what you are working on) and fun parties: all designed to help you dance more confidently. We hope to continue dancing for many more years, as it is not jus fun, but also helps us stay healthy physically and mentally!

My fiancé and I took an intro class to see if we would want to learn ballroom for our wedding. I can honestly say that the atmosphere with both teachers and other students made us feel so comfortable continuing! Going in with no dance experience, we’ve learned so many different styles and improved so fast. The other instructors are also incredible, and there are group classes you can take where you learn from not only your teacher, but the rest of them as well. I look forward to our private lesson & all of the group classes every week!

I started dancing at this studio two years ago as a complete beginner and I can now honestly say it’s been one of the most transformative experiences of my life. I was pretty nervous to try it without a partner, but the professional instructors made me feel really comfortable and helped me improve so quickly. What began as a fun way to explore a new hobby has turned into a major source of joy, confidence, and personal growth for me—both physically and mentally. The supportive community of students and staff make every visit something I genuinely look forward to.

I also have to give a huge shoutout to my teacher, Vasya. His passion for dance and commitment to his students is truly inspiring. Every lesson is encouraging and he challenges me to reach my fullest potential. I feel incredibly fortunate to have a coach who is so dedicated to my progress.

If you’re looking for a place that will uplift and inspire you, this is it! I highly recommend anyone come give it a try!!

A great experience for beginners and advanced dancers. Supportive instructors, wonderful group of other students. You don’t need a partner. I highly recommend FADS Glastonbury.

I have always struggled with dancing socially. I am clumsy and never had any formal instruction. However, my wife really wanted to try some dance lessons and I'm always willing to try something once. I am incredibly happy we did. Kristina has been a fantastic teacher and made this a fun experience. She is so warm and patient. It's let my wife and I gain confidence and truly enjoy dancing together. It went from what the heck lets give it a try it, to we want to do this for years to come. I highly recommend this studio.

Amazing studio with top-notch teachers. I walked into this location almost a year and a half ago knowing nothing about ballroom dancing. Sasha was the instructor I was paired up with. He took me under his wing and guided me in learning so much in such a relatively short period of time. I highly recommend the rest of the FADS Glastonbury and West Hartford crew that I have had the honor of learning from: Vasya, Khrystina, Volodya, Natasha, Christina, Alex, Katya, and Sergey. All of them are truly fabulous. There was a period of time that I had to pause lessons and the owner reached out to me and invited me to still come to group classes even though I was not enrolled in a lesson package at the time. It is actions such as these that really make difference. ❤️

My fiancé and I have had a great time preparing for our first dance. Oleksandr (Sasha) is a great dance coach and went above and beyond putting together a routine for us. We have enjoyed our classes so much we will continue to go even after the wedding. Highly recommend the studio and all it's staff!
