ABOUT JBC DANCE
JBC Dance is a dance school specialising in Ballroom, Latin, & New Vogue styles of dance. We also cover some Classical Sequence and Rock 'n' Roll styles of dance.
Janita is qualified in all 3 Dancesport styles - Ballroom, Latin & New Vogue through the New Zealand Federation of Dance Teachers.
We teach in a fun, relaxed environment so that you can learn at your own pace in a way that suits you.
As a teacher, there is no greater reward than seeing our students' faces light up when they achieve and enjoy what they have been learning.
We have classes for both children and adults, so no matter your age or ability we can cater for your needs. If there is enough demand we are always open to setting up new classes, so get a group together and contact us today!
We teach at two venues across Christchurch. Please see the timetable page for details of our classes and venues.
Whether you just want to dance around the room with style and ease, or you want the challenge of medal exams or dancesport we can help you, all the while ensuring you have fun and enjoy yourself.
We hold social dances regularly during the year so that you can put your new skills learnt to good use and have fun at the same time. We also hold Amateur medal examination sessions during the year. Amateur medal examinations are a good way for you to receive feedback about your dancing. There are ten levels of medals in three styles to work for! We have had excellent results, with our medals students receiving highly commended and honours passes from out of town highly qualified examiners.
Wedding Bookings
We can choreograph a customised dance to your chosen piece of music.
