TESTIMONIALS:
Don't just take our word for it - here's feedback from a dancers that sum up Joel's teaching:

Workshop in Louiville, KY
I wanted to thank you for your workshop this past weekend.  I’ve been to a lot of workshops and I’m not typically a big fan of them.  
Yours, however, has been head and shoulders above the rest.  
Your instruction and insight were not only applicable, but were also adaptable, challenging, and clear. 
The pacing kept things moving along without overwhelming the attendees.  The actual covered material was fun and useful.

I’m not sure where you get your energy, but if you could bottle it you would be a rich man!  
You expertly walk that fine line between energetic enthusiasm and irritating glee. 
Your passion comes across as true and real - never annoying, never frustrating, and certainly never dull.  
Your presentation made me want to smile and think, but more importantly, it made me want to dance better.
