★★★★★Julia McMullinI had the blessing of taking adult ballet classes at James School of Dance for 6+ years. Thanks to my classes with Miss Connie, ballet is now a life long love of mine. Miss Connie is amazing, and James School of Dance is a true gem!
★★★★★Kelli SMy teen loves classes at JSDA. It is a great supportive environment for both beginners and experienced dancers.
★★★★★Mollie IfshinMy daughter has taken classes here for 2 years now and we are looking forward to continuing into her 3rd year with JSDA and beyond. We love the warm and talented community of dancers and families at this studio and the teachers are all supportive and kind. Plus my daughter has improved her technical skills so much in the last year, it's been amazing to watch her grow and learn at JSDA! Highly recommend this studio to any family looking for dance classes for their child of any age!
★★★★★Lori JacobsWonderful studio with fantastic choreography and classes in just about every major style. The teachers are very caring- they get to know each dancer and help build upon the dancer’s strengths. Helps create a warm atmosphere that is reflected in the student interactions and parents too. JSDA is my daughter’s favorite place to be, and I’ve seen her grow tremendously in her skill and artistry.
★★★★★Sofie BeringI’m a dancer at Jsda and I love it there. The teachers are amazing people and choreographers. The school is like a big family and everyone there is so nice. If you’re looking for a new dance studio where you can make new friendships and improve as a dancer and person this is the place for you
