Summerdance program at a long-running Newton dance school, running July 6 to August 20 across several age tracks. Half Day Summerdance (ages 3-6) runs 9:00am-12:00pm and pairs dance with arts and crafts and outdoor games in a covered backyard classroom, offered by the week or the day. Full Day Summerdance (ages 7-10) runs 9:00am-3:00pm as a week-long, performance-based program with daily ballet, jazz, tap, hip hop and musical theater, culminating in a staged musical showcase in the studio's black-box theater. A Junior Apprentice track (ages 11-14) joins the full day with added classroom-leadership and choreography responsibilities, and Un.Convention is a four-day workshop for ages 6-18 with guest choreographers.

★★★★★Deborah Dorman (Deb)My daughter has been dancing at JLDC for 11 years! It has been a place that has taught her so much more than dance though, she’s learning about teamwork, motivation, discipline, empathy and more. Her teachers and classmates are more like family. She has group of classmates that have become her best friends, and it so nice to have this group of girls from all different towns, in addition to her school friends!
★★★★★Darrell / Kim MarshallIf I could give JLDC 10 stars I would. My daughter has been dancing there for the past 2 years and has had the best experience. The teachers are all highly skilled and treat everyone like family. During the pandemic, they went above and beyond to keep everyone safe and keep the dancing alive. It has been my daughter's happy place and I highly recommend it to anyone interested in any form of dance.
★★★★★Maribeth CusickCannot recommend JLDC highly enough. My daughter has been dancing there for 8 years and loves it so much. My son also starting taking Hip Hop classes there a few years ago. All the teachers are great and are very skilled dancers, but more importantly they are kind and encouraging. My respect for the professionalism of the studio only increased during the pandemic---with every twist and turn, they were able to continue to provide and safe and joyful place for my kids to dance.
★★★★★Ashly NolanJLDC feels like family! The facility is beautiful with state of the art technology and Covid safety features. The staff are friendly, knowledgeable, and always greeting you with a smile the moment you walk into the building. Their continuous effort to learn and grow as educators is commendable. I’ve researched other dance studios and this one is by far and away the best in the area. Every class is designed to meet the needs of all students and their recitals are so well done. My daughter leaves ballet each week with a smile from ear to ear. I would highly recommend JLDC to anyone who asks.
★★★★★Debbie KuronenMy daughters love the staff and the classes. The teachers are amazing and make class so much fun for the children. I can’t believe how much they learn in a year and how well they are able to execute their performances at the end of the year. They offer many different classes and you are able to trial the class to make sure it’s the right fit for your child! The recitals are extremely well run and enjoyable to watch. I highly recommend JLDC to anyone whose child loves to dance!
