Recreational Dance Classes at CCJ Conservatory


We believe that the first dance class your child takes is the most important dance class they will ever take! We insure that our young dancers have a fun and memorable experience in a safe and nurturing environment while learning correct technique and dance terminology. Even if they only dance for a short time, the self confidence, discipline, and sense of community that they learn will have a positive affect on other areas of their lives!
