What Our Dance Family Has To Say
“Joy Dance Academy is by far the best dance studio around. We have known the owner for several years and she is the one of the best dance teachers we have had. All the teachers are amazing. The main thing we love is the atmosphere. There is the perfect balance of structure and compassion. My daughter is challenged and pushed to be her best. She is also always encouraged and praised. I love that the teachers use positive reinforcement instead of harsh words and criticism. She always leaves class tired but with a huge smile on her face! So if you are looking for a dance studio Joy Dance Academy is the place to be!”
“We love Joy Dance Academy! ❤️ The teachers and staff are always so kind and helpful to everyone that enters the studio.”

“Our daughter is very happy every Friday when she has dance class with Joy dance academy. This is a great activity for young children to get them moving and to develop coordination and having fun.”
“We started at Joy Dance Academy in the fall of 2022. My daughter has enjoyed acro there and is learning so much. Highly recommend!”
“It’s an excellent place, my daughter loves it, totally recommend.”
“We started at JOY this year. My daughter Scarlett attends the recreational hip hop class on Tuesdays. She is so excited to be apart of JOY dance, she looks forward to practice every week. All of the instructors at JOY are amazing and work so well teaching all the students. I would highly recommend to anyone!”
“JDA along with the owner and instructors are absolutely amazing! They truly care not only about the dancers but the dancers family’s as well!! They keep in close contact with the families along with updates and newsletters to keep us all informed about upcoming events, activities and too many more to list!”
“My girls love JDA! They have found a dance family where they feel safe, happy and encouraged! Ashleigh is not only a wonderful business owner, but an incredible dancer and all around person! She loves those girls like her own and I wouldn’t choose any other studio for my babies! We love being a part of JDA!!!”
“Brooklyn has been in dance for 4 years. Since she has joined Joy Dance Academy I have seen so much growth! Ashleigh has been amazing in pushing her outside of her comfort zone. The family atmosphere you experience when you walk in the door is something that I have never experienced at any other dance studio. Of course I can’t leave out Miss Maggie. Brooklyn always hated tap. Honestly for the last 2 years she didn’t even participate in it. Miss Maggie asked Brooklyn to try the class and if she didn’t like it she could drop it. Guess what… Brooklyn absolutely loved it! I cannot thank Ashleigh and Maggie enough for encouraging Brooklyn to be the superstar that I knew she always was!”
