About Gotta Dance NJ

Established in 1989, Gotta Dance is a collaboration of passionate educators, inspiring students to perfect their technique and perform with joy; sharing the gift of dance to encourage growth, foster spirited community, and acknowledge the potential in everyone. Our philosophy is to develop young dancers physically, mentally, and artistically. How do we do this? Challenge, train and inspire! To help a dancer find the rhythm of the music and make art with their body is our passion. At Gotta Dance, we recognize that dancers need an audience to perform their art! Therefore we have created multiple performance opportunities for our dancers. You’ll burst with pride watching your dancer perform at our yearly concert at Raritan Valley Community College. Dancers of all ages and skills perform in our amazing shows. We also offer dancers the exclusive opportunity to perform alongside The NUTCRACKER Magic of Christmas Ballet and at community performances with Nutcracker Sweets Traveling Troupe in December. We also offer Performance Opportunities for all ages: Heartbeat Dance Team, Dynamite Dance Team, EDGE Dance Crew ,Immortal Dance Force, and Showstoppers Dance Company. Gotta Dance dancers are invited to try out and/or audition for all Performance Companies in January. Dancers are also recognized and awarded for their excellence. This happens through our Syllabus Challenge.

Baby Ballet 2 1/2 year olds:

As a 2 1/2-year-old, your Baby Ballet dancer is curious and blossoming every day. Dancers enter our 30-minute class independently to discover the joy and freedom in movement and improve sensory awareness, eye-body coordination, body awareness, spatial relations, and social skills. Our dance educators certainly provide the respect, tenderness, warmth, and patience that allow these youngest dancers to thrive.

Rainbows 3 year olds:

As a 3-year-old, your Rainbow is glowing with achievement every day. We want to help your children glisten during this period. Their movement and balance are improving and so are their verbal skills. This age group is known for its agility and growing gracefulness. We teach your children intentional movements to strengthen their age-appropriate developmental growth.

Unicorns 4-year-olds:

Unicorns are confident, creative, and imaginative. At the age of 4, your dancers possess all of these qualities and more. With better control over their movements and a growing understanding of concepts, we can begin to teach your dancers fundamental dance techniques. These movements combined with a lot of imagination will help dancers develop their growing dance vocabulary.
