This review is overdue; but better late then never. My son had booked this place so him and his…read morebride could be more eloquent in dancing at their wedding. I wanted to do a "special" dance with my son. The dance would start off as a regular slow mother-son wedding dance and then we would have surprised the guests with kicking the dance into something more lighthearted - a choreographed dance filled with a compilation of old "skool" songs and a variety of 80's dances such as the Snake and the Wop. Jose was awesome. He fabulously choreographed the dance for my son and I, then ever-so-patiently taught it to us during our one-on-two lessons. In the end, I could sense my son was a bit overwhelmed with trying to learn the dances while simultaneously planning his wedding with his bride-to-be so I scrapped the dance, telling my son we would do a regular mother-son dance together. It ended up being amazing since he incorporated the 2-step, and spins Jose had previously taught him for his wedding dance into our Mother-son dance. I've already inquired about the other classes that are taught here. They teach all different kinds on different days. I definitely recommend and I'll definitely be back to learn more.

Amazing instructors, amazing vibe, amazing dancing…read more Me and my husband have loved going to just one dance studio for the last year. It's been engaging given us time to bond, and Jose the owner personally prepared us for our wedding dance that wowed our guests and was such a nice touch to our wedding. We are so grateful for this experience and highly recommend this place!

We love DanceWorks! I can't say enough great things about Kathy and her team…read more When we moved to the area last year, I started looking online for places for my 5 year old to take ballet. There were a few places with great reviews but most of the moms that I knew sent their kids to DanceWorks for ballet / tap / etc. I was surprised by the lack of reviews but decided to try it out and WE LOVE IT! My daughter is always energized and happy leaving class and we are looking forward to their annual show in June where all classes get to showcase what they've learned. In addition, we just had my daughter's 6th birthday party here and I received multiple follow ups from parents telling me that their kids had so much fun at the dance party. I decided to add a review to help any parents out there who may not be aware of DanceWorks and may not hear about it through word of mouth. It's a wonderful place! Tip: Parking and the entrance is actually in the back.

Danceworks was the greatest gift to me during my most formative years. I danced with Kathy from the…read moretime I was 3 years old until I graduated from High School, and my greatest memories were of being in that studio. Kathy and her teachers are INCREDIBLE HUMANS, not just incredible teachers. They taught me how to grow, flourish, and thrive, not only on stage, but in my whole life. I carry Danceworks in my heart now, and always! If I didn't live in California now, both of my kids would be dancing with her, 100%. Go, go, go to Danceworks-- it will change the life of every girl and young woman who enters the doors.

I'll update since I routinely use this place for private lessons. As of April 2016, I think they…read moreare the best ballroom studio around in northern NJ for those that use independent instructors. Often at times you'll have the floor to yourself (which is kept in great shape) and have exclusive use of the sound system. When the floor is busy we've often been allowed in the smaller rooms (I only dance Latin anyway) at no additional cost or detriment. The only detriment to it now I see are the Friday night socials, which only allow newbies or those registered for their classes to go. Considering a few of my friends are in them and often go to this social, I'm kind of left out. On the other hand though, I could just as easily register for a class and go... The rest of the socials are great, but they do cater to an older crowd then you would typically at a bar scene. In summary: This is a great place for top dancesport competitors and people totally new to the ballroom scene.

She's been dancing well over 20 years so she knows what she's doing and how to run a class. She is very passionate about what she does and it shows on the dance floor. She is very flexible, easy going, accommodating and sensitive to the needs of all her students and just wants and brings out the best in them so that they can live a healthier life style and and feel great about themselves both inside and out (which they do). She doesn't pressure people to do more or go at her own pace either, just give her your best! Doesn't matter if you're a beginner, intermediate or expert dancer, she organizes her classes so that all levels of dancers feel comfortable with her routine. Her music selection is excellent too. Anyone who wants to work up a serious sweat while having fun doing it needs to take this class! Shes in the process of introducing MANY new and exciting features to her studio as well!

Briana was so kind and wonderful on the phone. I called on a Sunday and she pulled the potential sizes ahead of time. Originally, I was not going to bring my son. Briana encouraged me to bring him in order to have him try them on in person. I am so glad I listened! My ETA was 12:01pm and the store was due to close at noon. Briana said no worries, she would stay in order for me to try the shoes on. WOW! By the time we found parking it was 12:05pm we scored a great spot a block away) and we called Briana to advise we were walking up now. She was so sweet; so personable and assured us that she would stay open for us to arrive. Turns out my son was a larger and wider size and Briana had just the size and width that we needed! She was absolutely lovely! We plan to enroll in a class because she is amazing and the school is wonderful too! Thank you Briana for your exceptional customer service!

My rating is and is based on service and my 4 yr old taking classes. We started with a groupon and…read moremy daughter loved it. She takes the Pre-K 4 class which consists of ballet and tap....to be exact....ballet starts promptly at 1115am and 1150am they do tap and ends at 12pm. I kinda wish it was a bit longer and use a full hour but I guess being a 4 yr old maybe 45 min is enough. My daughter has fun with it so that's all that matters. The parking is off street....so bring 50 cents for the meters. I don't have much of a problem looking for parking.....so no complaints there. What's nice is if we miss a class then we can make it up on Fridays....we call and ask to make sure first if they can accommodate her. It's at 545p-630p so perfect after work for me. Will who works at the front desk is very friendly. The tuition can be placed on your credit card and can be automated every month. Kim the owner is very nice and answers all questions. They also offer parents night out from 5p-9p on weekends...this happens once in awhile....looks like it's monthly so far..it's $25 per child. Also, we can't watch the kids the entire time HOWEVER.....there's a curtain and it's hard to see BUT they do have a TV and alternate the rooms on saturdays....so every other sat I can watch my daughter in her class.....They really need to get another TV or maybe split the screens to watch both classes.
