"I signed up for Jakala's dance class hoping to get back into dancing for fun, to get out of my head and into my body, and that's exactly what I found. Jakala creates a genuinely safe space to let loose, which is rare to find these days. She encourages mistakes, which felt so refreshing, and it gave me permission to let go of my perfectionism and just be free.

I'll admit my confidence was a little low at first; there were dancers in the class at a much higher skill level than I was. But Jakala's playfulness and encouragement made room for everyone, and my confidence grew minute by minute as the class went on. She's a phenomenal instructor, and I left the class feeling more like myself than when I walked in."
