The staff has been nothing but wonderful! We drive about 45 mins after school 3x a week because they love it so much! They love doing hip hop, tap, jazz and ballet! In addition to dance, they are also learning about teamwork, good sportsmanship, time management and responsibility! We have already made some great memories with the ProArts team and we can't wait to make more!

Albee Dance is one of the hidden gems in Brooklyn. My daughter has been taking classes here since…read moreshe was 3 years old, starting with the Intro to Dance class which was a wonderful introduction to structured movement, rhythm and instruction while still being fun for young kids who may not be ready for extreme discipline required from ballet. She progresses each year with each class she takes, leveling up her skill sets and increasing her poise and confidence both on stage (in the recital performances each year) and off. She currently takes 4 different classes each week and looks forward to seeing the friends she continues to make here. In addition to Intro to Dance, my daughter has taken Tumbling, Tap and Jazz, Hip-Hop, Ballet and now Contemporary. My son recently started taking Tumbling and I love that he is able to focus his abundant energy while learning how to take instruction and act within a structured environment. I love that the owners focus on bringing in dance teachers who are not only knowledgeable but also great teachers and great with kids. Plus, the prices are reasonable and accommodating for families taking multiple classes. Nana and Fred have been great: they have been a part of the local neighborhoods for decades as teachers and owners of this dance school, have an extensive record not only as dancers on Broadway but also as teachers (totally different skill sets) and I appreciate their philosophy of hiring good *teachers,* not just good/reputable dancers. It is amazing to see former students return to enroll their own children, and to hear stories of their past comaraderies and experiences. As a parent, I myself look forward to the welcoming community of neighborhood parents that I've found here, which is not always easy to find amidst everyone's established lives and busy schedules. Bottom line: Albee Dance is a dance school with heart, great teachers, and a warm community.

If you are looking for a dance family that nurtures your child's passion while building their…read moretechnique, confidence, and character, look no further than Jorday Rivera Dance Studio (JRDS). My daughter, Kayla has been attending JRDS for 4 years now, and I can say without a shadow of a doubt that it has been one of the absolute best decisions we have ever made for her. From her very first class, the incredible instructors created a warm, high-energy, and encouraging environment where she immediately felt like she belonged. Over the last four years, we have watched her transform not just as a dancer, but as a confident young girl. The growth in her rhythm, technique, and stage presence is a direct reflection of the dedication, expertise, and heart that Jorday and her amazing staff pour into every single student. They hold their dancers to high standards while ensuring every step of the journey is filled with fun, passion, and genuine encouragement. Most importantly - "She absolutely loves it". As a parent, seeing your child's eyes light up after every single lesson is priceless. JRDS isn't just a top-tier dance studio--it is a community, a home, and a wonderful family. We couldn't be prouder to be a part of the JRDS family, and I recommend them with all my heart to any parent looking for an exceptional dance experience!

For $6, I got to see such a great show on a great stage, support local Jersey City artists and performers and also just hob knob it with some local artists and great peops from the community. Now, if you are expecting a theater like setting (i.e. Broadway or NJ PAC) that is not the venue. They have a great stage with audio and lighting with 3 rows of stadium style seating. It's professional, intimate, and super underground and makes me happy that a place like this exists in my community, let alone a few streets away. I'll definitely be checking out a ton more live performances now that I know that this gem is definitely authentic, professional, unique and just straight cool.

Last year {2023} I had Major Surgery and went through several months of rehabilitation . Knew I had to continue some types of exercises and my income was limited . So I decided to go back to The Kennedy Dancers Classes In the beginning it was hard for me to keep up with the different movements in each class. As time went on and the encouragement from the teacher Erik and Gigi (Diane-the Executive & Artistic Director) and others I kept coming to the classes. I've come a long way, maybe I'm not as fast ,but I'm getting there. I'm Thankful for the Kennedy Dancers and the funds and grants that are given to them by N.J. State Council on the Arts and hope they and others continue to help fund the Senior Program so the Seniors that are on a limited income can keep attending the classes.

Overall I am really happy with them and would recommend Kennedy Dancers to friend/family.
