Nurture your child’s love of dance with our variety of classes!
Children love to dance. Shortly after a child learns to walk, they also learn to wiggle and groove to the music. Not only is this healthy, but it’s fun and a great form of exercise. If your child loves to dance and groove, then we at Old Town Gymnastics Academy would love to see them attending our dance class in the Winston-Salem, North Carolina area.
Our dance class is made with a child’s success in mind. We believe in keeping our student to teacher ratios low, so that every child has more interaction with the teacher. Children are able to experiment, try new things, and move with careful observation. Not only does this help children to increase their confidence, but they are also able to progress quickly with less concern of injury.
If your child is interested in dance, we are confident that they will grow and flourish under our instruction. With a safe space, quality equipment, wonderful teachers and plenty of options, we believe you’ll love working with us. Our state of the art studio includes a floating wood dance floor, ballet barres, mirrors and wonderful dance instructors.
Because our gym focuses on dance, gymnastics and cheer, children are able to learn a wide range of skills and take them in the direction that speaks to them. If they are more interested in gymnastics and tumbling, we can help them develop and progress these skills. If they are more interested in dance, we can help them in that arena, too! We are confident that your child will love our programs, no matter what they start in or what they choose. For more information about our dance options, please contact us today.

Mrs. Brittany’s love of dance began at the age of 3 with Ballet and Jazz. She knew from an early age that dance was truly her passion so she continued to dance throughout her life no matter where she was living. Mrs. Brittany attended Radford University in Virginia where she was on the Rockers Dance Team. She has always loved teaching children so she graduated with a Bachelor’s Degree in Elementary Education and Minor in Dance. She met her husband at RU and when he joined the Marine Corps they married and were stationed in Virginia, California and Hawaii. While living in each state Mrs Brittany taught various elementary school grades and dance genres including Jazz, Pom, Acro, Hip Hop, Ballet, and Tap to students of all ages. Now that her family has settled here in Winston Salem she is looking forward to this new adventure and can’t wait to share her love of dance with the students of Old Town Dance and Cheer.[/et_pb_text][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ disabled_on=”off|off|off” _builder_version=”4.7.4″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”0px||||false|false”][et_pb_row use_custom_gutter=”on” gutter_width=”2″ disabled_on=”off|off|off” _builder_version=”4.7.4″ _module_preset=”default”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.7.4″ _module_preset=”default”][et_pb_text admin_label=”Lead Instructor” _builder_version=”4.7.4″ _module_preset=”default”]
Hey everyone! My name is Jazlyn Miller! I have been dancing professionally for 10+ years and have worked with artists such as Doja Cat, Beyoncé, Todrick Hall, Snoop Dogg, Pharrell, Cardi and many more fantastic artists! I have also worked on TV shows such as Ru Paul’s Drag Race, Sherman’s Showcase, Dave, Code Black and I have done some commercial work as well with brands such as Nike. I absolutely love what I do; but what I love even more, is spreading the knowledge I have learned about the industry; self-love, self-worth, contracts, agencies, touring and more that I would love to share with you! I find so much joy in helping young women and men find their special something when it comes to performing and I look forward to helping you achieve your goals. I also have a lot of experience and skill set in cheerleading and theatre and my passion is the arts! My main focus while working together is perfecting skill, focus, strength (physical and mental), cleanliness, and overall performance. I look forward to working with you!
