The classes they teach
“I highly recommend Jorday's for beginners as well as advanced dancers!”
What students say again and again
“This studio has experienced instructors with lots of patients that teaches from ages 2 to adult.”
“I was a shy young girl who wasn't into dancing at first, but with years of learning and practicing, I'm proud of the dancer I've become.”
“At times I drop my kids to their classes and run errands and I am totally comfortable because of the family oriented atmosphere and cleanliness.”
“I also tried other dances (salsa, bachata, ballet) and all the instructors I had were a blast.”
From the reviews
Jorday Rivera's Dance Studio has done so much for me ever since I joined. Not only have they taught me to dance, they also have made my love for dance even greater. The teachers are phenomenal. They have taught me so many new skills and technique in less than a year.
Joining the Jorday Dance School has been one of the best decisions I've made . I take all of the belly dance classes and can honestly say that I feel like part of a dance family. All the dance instructors are super talented and want to see their students grow.
This place is amazing in every sense! Looking for a place was a bit frustrating at first, but I hit jackpot with this studio. The staff (Jorday and everyone else) are very talented and super nice, and the students are a bunch of fun.
Jorday Rivera's Dance Studio has really become a family. Our daughter started when she was 4 years old and has grown to be a tremendous dancer. This is her 5th year and we are excited to see her continue to develop.
Your first pole class at Jorday Rivera's Dance Studio
Nervous about your first pole class? Almost everyone is — and a good studio expects total beginners to walk in the door. Here's what to know. You don't need to be strong, flexible, or thin to start — pole builds all of that, and your first class is about learning to spin, walk the pole, and hold on, not inverting on day one. What to expect: a warm-up, some conditioning, and a few basic spins or a short combo — it's a real full-body workout, so expect to sweat and to feel it in your arms and core the next day. Rest whenever you need to; no one is watching or judging. What to wear: shorts and a tank or sports bra — bare skin on your arms, legs, and stomach is what grips the pole, so save the leggings for aerial or floorwork. Skip the lotion the day of class; it makes the pole slippery. Grip aids: most studios keep grip liquid (Dry Hands / iTac) on hand, and knee pads make floorwork comfy — ask at the front desk. What to bring: water and a small towel. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign in and meet your instructor. It clicks fast — most people leave their first class already planning the next one.
