Dancing For Joy (DFJ) is a longstanding, non-competitive dance studio rooted in community values and performing arts education. Founded in the late 1990s by Kurt and Maluhia Vandergriend, DFJ emphasizes age-appropriate instruction and a collaborative, supportive environment. The program extends to the Jubilee Dance Company, a multi-tier youth program designed to cultivate growth through five levels of training and performances.
