The
corporate office of Fred Astaire Franchised Dance Studios is pleased to
announce the grand opening of the Beirut, Lebanon franchise.
CEO
and President Jack Rothweiler says the opening “is an important milestone for
both the company and Beirut.”
As the capitol and cultural center of Lebanon, the city has a thriving
night life and a vibrant social and ballroom dance scene (as evidenced by the
numerous independent ballroom dance studios) which is something the
organization wants to tap into.
Marwan
Jammal, a native of Beirut,
will run the daily operations of the studio along with his business partner,
Guitta Dabdab. A competitive ballroom dancer for over a decade, Jammal taught
dance for a number of years and has an extensive background in fashion retailing.
As the newest studio owner and franchisee in the FADS organization, Jammal
initially was attracted to the company’s philosophy, teaching methods, and
naturally — its iconic namesake.
