JIVE is one of the best dance studios! My daughter just started her 4th year here and my son and myself are starting our 2nd year. I have not met a dance instructor that I don't like and their once a year concerts are always AMAZING! They have classes for all age groups and all skill levels and none of the teachers make you feel bad is your skill is low. Gina the Director and owner is amazing to work with. If your looking for an amazing Dance Studio this is it!
