About the Team

JWSD Dance Arts Team focuses on commitment, passion, and community and strives to shape more confident and responsible young dancers age 9-12.

Dancers are required to take dance classes weekly September-May. Team dancers are also encouraged to take dance classes is the summer and attend our August Dance Camp/Workshop.
