Why families choose FAPA

Good teaching, in a place built for it

  • The FAPA sign outside our building on Paragon Way

    Twenty-five years in Freehold

    Miss Heather opened FAPA in 2002. Many of our teachers are former students who came back to teach.

  • The waiting area, with TVs showing every dance room

    Watch every class

    Each of our five dance rooms is on TV in the waiting area, so you can watch your dancer learn.

  • One of our large dance rooms with red acro mats

    A studio built for dancers

    9,000 square feet, fully climate controlled, with Authentic FAPA Sprung Floors in every room.

  • A tiny dancer in orange standing with an older dancer

    Every style, every age

    Tap, jazz, ballet, lyrical, modern, pointe, hip hop and acro for ages 2½ to adult.

  • PECO dancers at Backstage Nationals

    A company that wins

    PECO, our performing company, trains together all year and came home from Nationals with the top awards.

  • Two young dancers in FAPA t-shirts

    Everything under one roof

    Shoes, leotards, tights and FAPA Wear® are sold at Absolute Dancewear, our store inside the studio.
