Community Involvement & News Stories
It's imperative for us to give back to the Oakville community. We are proud to be involved with several local charities and events that make a real difference in the lives of people across Halton.
Dancing with Easter Seals Stars
Fred Astaire Dance Studio Oakville is honoured to be a partner of Easter Seals Ontario, supporting their annual Dancing with Easter Seals Stars fundraiser. Our instructors donate their time to train local community leaders and celebrities in ballroom and Latin dance routines, performed at a gala event at the Oakville Conference Centre. Funds raised go toward essential equipment, accessibility modifications, and summer camp experiences for children and youth with physical disabilities across Halton.
