I'm really surprised no one has answered this yet. This was a favorite of mine when I was a kid. They built a special set that was attached to a giant motor which turned the room while the camera was attached to the set itself. You can see while Fred leans into the turns of the room and makes the transitions. My kids just watched the clip just now on YouTube and are watching me type this now as they ask "how did they do that?" I almost hate to ruin the magic of it by providing this answer. Lionel Ritchie did it too. Look it up.
Here's a video that really clearly shows how they did it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i0g3g6AvLtM

I would say the two most famous dance schools are Arthur Murray and Fred Astare
Ginger Rogers was known for her singing and acting but mostly for her many movies and dance scenes with Fred Astaire.

Fred and his sister, Adele, learned to dance when they were very young. Their mother took them to New York to study dance. They performed in their first professional show when Fred was ten years old and Adele was twelve. Later, as teenagers, the two danced in many shows throughout the United States. Thus, a star was born.
