About Youth Program

At WJ, we believe young dancers grow best through a clear, structured, and supportive training system. Our Kids & Youth Program is designed for students ages 6–18, while dancers 15+ may move into our adult program as they’re ready.

The pathway guides students from: discovering dance → building foundations → developing strong technique → performing confidently.

Since this is a newly launched program, all students will be taking class together for now and will be placed based on level. As the program grows, we will gradually separate classes into more detailed age groups as well.

Important Information before Enrollment

Our Youth Program offers flexible enrollment options to fit every student's interests and schedule. Classes are 70–75 minutes in length, depending on the course.

 

Students may choose from:

  • Drop-In Classes – Browse the calendar below and register for drop-in classes that interest you.

  • Class Packages – Purchase a package below and use your credits to register for a variety of classes across our program.

  • Semester Enrollment – Enroll in a specific course below for the entire semester and enjoy a structured, progressive learning experience.

 

While all enrollment options are available, we recommend Semester Enrollment for students who have selected a particular course. Consistent participation allows students to build skills steadily, gain confidence, and fully benefit from the curriculum and instructor guidance throughout the semester.

 

Important Attendance Policy

Consistent attendance is strongly encouraged, especially for courses that include a final video filming or performance. Participation in the final filming/performance cannot be guaranteed for students with excessive absences, as preparation and rehearsal are essential parts of the learning process. If you anticipate attendance challenges, please consult your instructor regarding your individual situation.

Mid-Semester Enrollment Notice

To ensure students can successfully follow the curriculum, single drop-in registrations are not accepted once a course has reached the midpoint of the semester (approximately after 4–5 classes). Students interested in joining a course after this point need to contact us before registering.
