      Q: (Traduit par Google) Tous vos instructeurs ont-ils une expérience préalable en salle de bal ? Pour les cours particuliers, j’aimerais quelqu’un qui n’a pas simplement commencé à apprendre la salle de bal. Les biographies sur votre site Web montrent que certains n'ont aucune expérience préalable ? (Original) Do all of your instructors have previous ballroom experience? For private lessons I’d like someone who didn’t just start learning ballroom. The bios on your website show some with no prior experience?

      A:

      (Traduit par Google) J'avais la même question ! La biographie des instructeurs Malina et Cassianna sur votre site Web ne donne pas l'impression qu'ils ont beaucoup d'expérience en salle de bal et ne sont peut-être pas au niveau d'instructeur à moins qu'ils ne le fassent depuis des années, mais leur biographie omet simplement cette information ? (Original) I had the same question! The bio of instructor Malina and Cassianna on your website dont sound like they have much ballroom experience and maybe aren't at instructor level unless they've been doing it for years but their bios just omit that information?

      Q: (Traduit par Google) Dois-je avoir des chaussures de danse pour suivre mes cours ? (Original) Do I have to have dance shoes to take my lessons?

      A:

      (Traduit par Google) Finalement, vous trouverez des chaussures spécifiques à la danse qui rendront l'exécution de vos mouvements plus facile et plus confortable, mais vous n'avez pas besoin de chaussures de danse pour commencer ! De nombreux nouveaux étudiants suivent leurs cours avec des chaussures de sport ou des chaussures habillées. Assurez-vous simplement d'apporter des chaussures qui restent en place (pas de tongs, de claquettes amples) et qui vous mettent à l'aise. (Original) Eventually, you will find dance specific shoes make executing your moves easier and more comfortable, but you do not need to have dance shoes to get started! Many newer students take their lessons in athletic shoes or dress shoes. Just make sure to bring footwear that stays in place (no flip-flops, loose slides) and makes you feel comfortable.

Pour vos cours particuliers, nous vous mettrons en contact avec l'un de nos instructeurs certifiés pour compléter la partie (diriger/suivre) que vous apprenez. Les cours de groupe et les soirées de danse sociale offrent l’occasion de danser avec de nombreux autres étudiants et instructeurs, vous ne serez donc jamais sans partenaire avec qui danser ! (Original) No partner necessary! For your private lessons, we will pair you with one of our certified instructors to complement the part (lead/follow) you are learning.

        I came to FADS for physical therapy after having amputations on both my feet. It turned out to be so much more. The FADS family in Lake Oswego and Beaverton are phenomenal. I misuse the word family because that is what we are. It starts with the owners, passed down through the instructors, and carried on with the students. There is such a community of respect, kindness, and simple silliness here. It is an environment of being in a safe place to learn to dance, flub it up, laugh at yourself, and enjoy others who will support you, encourage you, and triump you through your personal victories. OMGoodness, Chris, my instructor, has the patience of a saint. I came to him as a hot mess that led into something I call my happy hour. Trust their process. They know what they're doing. Not only are they certified instructors, but they also compete regularly. The level and knowledge of their expertise here is outstanding.

        My boyfriend and I are having so much fun learning Salsa from our instructor Chris. Chris is super knowledgeable and professional while still keeping our lessons fun. He was able to get my boyfriend and I dancing together in sync in no time. We grow more confident dancing together every session. I will say the best way to get your bang for your buck is practice often outside of your private sessions and take advantage of their group classes and practice parties. Dance class has become our favorite part of the week and we look forward to many many more classes and private lessons to come.

        Took some lessons here for our first dance for our wedding and it was an all around great experience! We got help with everything from tips on specific moves to selecting the right mix of steps to fit our song. Maile was really fun to work with and we absolutely rocked it on our wedding day! Thanks again to Maile and Chris for helping us along the way.

        I have been taking lessons here for a year now and enjoying every minute of the experience. My instructor has been the human embodiment of patience as ballroom dancing is all brand new to me. The studio is also more than just individual lessons with group classes every evening and dance parties on Fridays; so lots of chances to learn from all the excellent instructors and practice what I'm learning. The studio has built a great community of people, creating a fun place to learn to dance and just hang out with new friends.

        My time with the FADS has been very positive, educational, and supportive. The staff are always enthusiastic when working on new dance moves, as well as eager to answer questions or maybe give a different explanation when I get confused. Dancing has become a hobby of mine, and I am very happy with my experience at FADS. I highly recommend this studio to anyone wanting to learn how to dance!
