Dancing at Janna's has helped me improve on my dance style and gave me opportunities to perform. She is a great teacher and a beautiful studio. Thank you Janna.
My wife and I had several great dates learning to dance the tango salsa and waltz. She also has hula and several styles of belly dance. Those were not for me but my wife loves them. The studio is clean and friendly and professional. I can't wait to go back.
Janna's is a great dance experience. The instructors know just what to do to get you moving! Classes are small and personal and prices are great.
