We can’t wait to welcome these dancers back to the studio this fall—and to welcome new students into the School of Nimbus community!

Join us for our Fall Open House on August 29 to try a class, meet our world-class Teaching Artists, and learn more about the School of Nimbus. Fall Semester classes begin September 14.

A special day at our Summer Intensive! ✨

Last week, students working on "A Wisp Of" with Teaching Artist Maggie Joy welcomed a very special guest into the studio.

Sarah Marino—the original performer the solo was created on in Spring 2025—joined class to observe rehearsal, share feedback, and offer insight into the creative process behind the work. It was a unique opportunity for our students to experience how a dance evolves through collaboration between choreographer and performer.

Thank you, Sarah, for spending the afternoon with us and inspiring the next generation of artists. 💜

More Summer Intensive Session 1 moments coming soon!

Registration is now open for the Fall Semester at the School of Nimbus Dance! Join us in Jersey City or Summit for expert dance training in a welcoming, supportive environment where students build confidence, creativity, discipline, and lifelong friendships.

Class schedules for both locations are now available on our website. Visit the link in our bio to explore classes and reserve your spot—many fill quickly!
