THE FRED ASTAIRE METHOD OF TEACHING
Our unique method of dance instruction is an exciting way for you to achieve your dancing goals. Approved by the National Dance Council of America (NDCA) and designed by the Fred Astaire Dance Council, the Fred Astaire Trophy System defines various levels of accomplishment in dance. The Fred Astaire Programs are tailor-made to a student's specific dance goals and interests. In addition, the programs are designed to build upon one another as your dancing improves.
SOCIAL FOUNDATION Our Social Foundation Level is your first planned and personalized dance program. It embodies the basics necessary for good social dancing. The key elements enable you to "Hold Your Own" in most social dance situations.
ADVANCED SOCIAL FOUNDATION The Advanced Social Foundation takes everything you accomplished in the Basic Social Foundation and takes it one more step up the learning ladder. The program will give you a greater variety of patterns and the ability to blend them together with confidence.
BRONZE TROPHY SYSTEM
Bronze dancers have complete confidence in being able to dance with any partner on any size dance floor to any tempo of music. The Bronze program emphasizes an individual's sense of balance, rhythm, control and coordination in order to help learn the step patterns, timing, appearance, and leading/following characteristics necessary for each dance style. Bronze dancing is at a much higher level than other social dancing because of the movement and intricacies of the patterns.
SILVER TROPHY LEVEL These dancers are distinguished by versatility and style in all the popular dances. This is a beautiful and practical standard of dancing for those who wish to be sought after on the dance floor. It is also the stepping stone for those wishing to become advanced social and/or competition dancers
