Powered by GoogleMy younger sister has been a student at Januarys for a very long time and we highly recommend!! Januarys has allowed her to grow not only as a person but also as a dancer, she has made so many long lasting friendships through Januarys and all of the girls are very supportive of one another and everyone feels like family at the studio. January does an amazing job at not only teaching dance but also making her studio a safe space where all dancers can learn in a positive space while building lifelong friendships!
January’s is an amazing place to dance and I have been so honored to be here for 15 years. January treats all of her students and staff like they are family, which makes for an extremely positive dancing environment for all (those who want to continue dance professionally or not). As a member of her company, I can say from actual experience that January enforces fairness, etiquette, kindness, and many other important dance and life skills. She is so dedicated to the welfare of her students and works harder than anyone I know. January goes out of her way to ensure everyone has a safe and comfortable learning environment. She wants to make a positive difference in the lives of her students and she certainly has here.
My daughter, Adeline, is 12 years old and this is her 11th year at January’s. She started out in the Tippy Toe Two’s class at 2 years old and has loved it ever since. We have loved every dance instructor and she has made amazing friends. She takes class 4 evenings per week and never wants to miss a class. It is a great place, not only for the exceptional dance instruction, but also for the way they build confidence in every dancer. We love our dance family!
This is one amazing company! The decision was made for my child to relocate to January's because of how January takes a personal interest in every dancer as if they were the only dancer in the studio. January's took my child under their wings. They developed and encouraged my child to be her best outside the studio as well as inside the studio. They have equipped my child and other children with transferable skills.The company has prepared my child for college and created college opportunities for her. This company is a CUT above the rest. To give 5***** is an understatement! Words and stars cannot define my appreciation for The Academy of Arts at January's. Thank You!
Our family has been at this studio for about 15 years. The staff here has been top notch from day one. This studio teaches way more then just dance technique. These girls are taught self worth, respect and responsibility just to name a few. I cannot recommend this studio enough!
