OUR TEAM
JDW’s teaching staff, combined with their nationally-acclaimed methods, are the reason Jenina’s Dance Workshop remains one of the most recognised schools in Australia for quality training.
We believe teaching students knowledge and understanding of dance is just as important as the technique and steps themselves, which helps to create a balance between the mind and the body.
We aspire for our choreography to be fresh, innovative and captivating and provide an emphasis on positive reinforcement and encouragement. JDW's teaching staff are 100% passionate about what they do and aim to give each student their own personal dance journey.
