A note from our founder, Jessica Goldman
I genuinely believe dance is the most endorphin-releasing, healthy, and fun exercise that benefits a person’s whole self: body, mind, and soul. I also know for so many dancers, it’s easy to feel like you ‘age out’ of the right to your spot on a dance floor, even when it might actually be the best time of your life to reap the benefits. Living in Chicago, I spent so much time trying out different classes but always left feeling underwhelmed - most classes lacked the beat-driven, heart-pumping cardio experience I was craving. That’s why I created Dance Forever - a signature class where adults can learn fresh choreography that’s easy enough to catch on to but challenging enough for your body and mind to make you feel like the best version of yourself.
Our community is so unique and special, I wanted to ensure the space we created reflected the energy, sophistication, and overall vibe to make everyone feel welcome and inspired. So we created a sanctuary that feels more like a social club instead of a workout facility, where you can come escape your day, get in a solid workout, and meet new friends under the disco ball.
Beyond our regular schedule of classes, I wanted to ensure adults who wanted to keep performing had the opportunity to do just that, so we established our Dance For Pros team, a group that trains and performs together around the city. And because so many special moments in life involve dancing, we made sure to create one-of-a-kind experiences to support those times too, making sure we can meet all of your dance needs.
Our class formats, talented instructors, and supportive community will keep you coming back again and again, in person or virtually.
I hope the Dance Forever experience leaves you feeling sexy, confident, strong, and motivated to keep dancing. Forever.
