What an AMAZING community! I decided to take the adult tap class to see what it was about, and I am…read morehappy to say I have continued taking classes at RDA and currently going in my third consecutive year! The teachers here are so talented and make class fun! Class size can range from 3-10 people in a class as some don't pay for the full semester and some people pay per class they drop into. They even do fun evening events where you can have a glass of wine and learn different dance styles. I took the hip hop one and had a ton of fun! If you're looking for a fun no pressure environment to get back into something you used to do as a child or start something new, I can't recommend trying out a class at RDA enough !!!

We had an amazing amazing experience at Fred Astaire in Hartsdale. The entire staff is so sweet and…read morewonderful, and our instructor, Alexi, was phenomenal. My (now) husband and I started lessons there to prepare a surprise salsa routine for our wedding first dance. We selected a song, and Alexi created the most incredible routine for us. We loved working with him, we had so much fun, and we really nailed that routine at the wedding! Our guests were so taken aback and three months later, still talk about it! We could not have done it without Fred Astaire and would recommend this studio for anyone wanting to learn a new dance style, but also for couples in general because it is a great experience to learn to dance with your partner!

The quality of training here is similar to what you'll find at some of the best schools in the…read morecity. Known specifically for its high level of Modern dance training, Steffi Nossen attracts some of the best teachers and choreographers in the industry. The difference? The Steffi community is truly a family. My sisters and I all danced here and have made friendships that have lasted far beyond our high school years. While some who train here go on to a professional dance career, others have continued to find the joy of dance in all aspects of their life. We were able to work with choreographers like Patrick Corbin, Sidra Bell, Peter Pucci, Nancy Lushington, Michael Foley, Annmaria Mazzini, Sabatino Verlezza and Pam Tanowitz. We were able to perform as young girls in the outstanding SUNY Purchase Performing Arts Center, and other prominent venues in NYC. Steffi Nossen's studios are beautiful and centrally located in White Plains. In addition to Modern training, Steffi Nossen has incredible ballet, jazz, hip hop, and tap classes as well. I began at SNS at age 3, and I know many others who spent their childhood years here too. Without a doubt this school is unique and special. It's not just the best school in Westchester, Steffi Nossen also boasts a thriving foundation that seeks to bring dance to all people - regardless of personal circumstance. Their Moving Wheels and Heels program features adaptive dance for both stand up and wheelchair dancers. As a student at the school, I was able to work with this program. As a young woman, being able to not just hone my own technique, but also give back in such a fundamental way, was truly remarkable. I would highly recommend this school to anyone looking for high caliber dance training in a supportive environment. Steffi dancers stay connected long after high school. I am honored to be part of this community.

Every member of the staff is charming, from Michael the owner, Moises, the "hostest with the mostest", and several fantastic dance instructors. My personal "dance team" consists of Kiki, flair personified; Sophia, the "drill instructor", and Denzel, the baddest man on two feet you'd ever meet. I dance bachata, salsa and the hustle with this crew, and am about to add the cha cha. I recently attended and danced at the big Medal Ball at the Surf Club in New Rochelle! Swank. And I couldn't have even gotten into the building without the kindness, focus and commitment of these great human beings. I am beyond grateful. Run, don't walk, and dance!
