JCCSF Dance School

When kids dance, they get so much more than just an outlet for excess energy – they become more socially aware in groups, learn how to express themselves creatively, and grow in strength, flexibility, coordination and balance.

At the JCCSF Dance School, our talented instructors guide children in various styles of dance. From ballet to jazz to hip hop and more, the tiered dance programs offer a wide selection of engaging classes for everyone – creating inspiring young artists throughout our community.

Keep On Dancing

From living rooms across San Francisco to the JCCSF studios to the stage at the Palace of Fine Arts, no matter where we are, our collective love of dance brings us together. Here are a few clips of our student’s skills on display during online classes in 2020 and at the Ballet Select and Dance Recital performances from 2019.
