Joyce Willett School has 2 locations one in NW Austin and one on Berkman drive in East Austin. Both women are great teachers. Ms. Joyce concentrates mostly on introducing very young children to dance. Most of Kim's teaching focuses on the Dance Company: Body Talk. They are both extremely passionate about their work. Kim is dedicated to the children but does not have tremendous patience with doting parents. If you are a parent that wants to have a lot of one on one conversation about your special little one this is NOT the dance studio for you. If you want your child to participate in dance with a high level of discipline in a culturally diverse setting then I recommend Joyce Willett School. My daughter has attended JWS since the age of 4 (she is now 17) and has had an excellent experience and attributes the skills she learned in this studio to other successes she has had in life. One thing that attracted me to the studio was the cultural diversity - there are children in the dance programs of many different ethnic and social backgrounds.
