We absolutely love Nimbus! It’s been a joy to see my girls blossom there with the expert teaching and warm and kind community. It’s such a creative, expressive, and inclusive environment, and we feel lucky to be part of Nimbus.

As an adult with a background in dance, I've really enjoyed both the modern and hiphop classes I've recently taken. Porscha made hiphop so much fun and was really helpful. I've also been to one of their performances which was great, very unique and theatrical. I look forward to taking more classes this summer!

I absolutely love the Hip Hop class taught by Ms. Porshia! She gets us into the vibe and mindset of the movements and dance choreography with her wealth of knowledge and truly makes it a safe space to explore your relationship to movement and dance. There is nothing else like it at Nimbus so I would love to continue taking it. Any summer class updates?

My daughter loves Nimbus Dance. Every session she takes at least two classes and always wants to continue. This is the only after school program that she actually will ask us to sign up for her. I haven't fully figured out why she loves it so much. Perhaps it's the wonderful peers she dances with, the great teachers she had over the years and the venue itself. She always come back home from class happily. Over the years she also had various performances and we can see her progress. From Nutcracker to the end of the year showcases. I just watched her Tap class performance. It was wonderful to see all kids doing such a great job. The best part is, we live right next to it. I'm eagerly looking forward to the Fall season.

I can’t express how much I love Nimbus and for so many reasons. Nimbus provides high quality dance instruction while promoting professionalism and responsibility, and fostering an atmosphere founded in kindness, respect, and inclusion. My child has grown tremendously as a dancer in her four years at Nimbus, had ample opportunity to perform on stages ranging from community celebrations, the annual Jersey City Nutcracker performances, winter and spring showcases in their state of the art theater, and even most recently at NJ PAC. Dance heritage is woven into each experience with master classes taught by visiting professionals. The teachers are exquisite dancers who offer kindness and nurturing as they teach. And the entire Nimbus community of staff, teachers, and leaders demonstrate respect and professionalism. My child loves dancing at Nimbus and has gained so much even beyond dance skills that will benefit her in school and in life. I can’t say enough. I love the School of Nimbus and the Nimbus community.
