RJ's has worked for 32 years to create our dance environment. Each day our instructors work tirelessly to improve our craft and make our program the best in the area for dance education … Yes! Parents, we invite you to do some homework and compare our studio to others in the area. Make sure you are comparing apples to apples in order to get the very best for your budding dancer and for your dollar.

 

What should you look for in a dance studio?

​

• Education - We are not just an after-school activity to kill time! We are not a passing fad. We do not believe in teaching quick, fancy tricks. We believe in quality and proper technical training. We know that well-rounded dancers who excel on outside dance teams do so because they receive proper technique in multiple genres. Your dancers will get a proper technical dance education from their very first class at RJ's. 

​

• Instructors - We employ only experienced, adult instructors who are the very best in the industry. Our instructors are all educated and trained in their field and are dedicated to continuing their own dance education. Some of our instructors come from MADCO, St. Louis Dance Theatre (formerly Big Muddy Dance Co), STL Rhythm Collaborative & many more! Our instructors utilize class assistants and class helpers to make sure your dancer gets the personal attention and instruction they need.

​

• Team Programs - We have a variety of team programs for dancers interested in extending their dance and performance experience. Our team dancers learn from a variety of highly sought after artists and compete against the most talented dancers regionally and nationally. 

​

• Cost - We have competitive tuition rates and fees as compared to other studios in the West St. Louis area. We offer family discounts. Contact us for more details about our tuition scale and family discounts. 

​

• Performance - Our end-of-the-year recital is MORE than just a dance recital… it is your dancer's opportunity to be a part of a professional production. If you have never attended one of our recitals, prepare to be WOW'ed!
