Discover the Jensen Performing Arts Difference
When comparing traditional teen sports with our Super Stars dance program, it’s easy to see how dance offers a unique approach to physical, mental, and emotional development. Let’s take a closer look at what sets our program apart.
In traditional sports, coaches often focus on team performance, with limited time to provide individualized instruction. Some athletes may not get the attention they need to refine their skills.
Many sports teams practice the same drills repeatedly, which can become tedious and lead to burnout. As athletes lose motivation, it can impact both their performance and enjoyment.
While teamwork is part of sports, the competitive nature can sometimes limit genuine friendships or create pressure to perform. Athletes may struggle to connect outside of practices or games.
Teen sports often focus on physical skills and game results, with less emphasis on emotional well-being and mental health. Athletes may miss out on opportunities to develop stress-management tools or self-expression skills.
At Jensen Performing Arts, every dancer receives personalized guidance from instructors, helping them grow in their abilities and reach their personal goals. Our program nurtures both physical mastery and emotional confidence.
Every Super Stars class brings fresh routines and choreography. With a blend of Tap, Jazz, Hip Hop, and Acro, dancers are continually challenged and stay excited about their progress, keeping both their minds and bodies engaged.
At Jensen Performing Arts, dancers join a supportive, non-competitive community where friendships thrive. We encourage teamwork, celebrate each dancer’s progress, and foster an environment where everyone feels they belong.
Super Stars classes offer more than just physical training. Through dance, students enhance their flexibility and strength, reduce stress, and build self-confidence. Our focus on artistic expression promotes both mental clarity and emotional balance.
Advanced Ballet, Jazz, and Acro for Teens and Adults
At Jensen Performing Arts, our Teen Ballet, Jazz, and Acro classes are tailored to elevate your dance abilities. Whether you’re focused on refining your ballet technique, diving into the dynamic rhythms of jazz, or pushing your acro skills to new heights, our classes provide a thorough approach to advancing in these dance styles. With expert instructors and personalized feedback, each dancer is guided to master advanced techniques and deepen their understanding of their chosen discipline.
Precision and Purpose in Every Step
Success in dance comes from more than just physical ability—it takes focus, discipline, and intent. In the Super Stars program, dancers develop concentration through structured training that emphasizes technical precision and deliberate movement. By setting personal goals and working with intention, students grow their skills and develop a strong work ethic. These qualities extend beyond dance, helping students excel in school, sports, and other activities.
Persistence, Confidence, and Stress Management Through Dance
Dance challenges students to grow both physically and mentally. Our Super Stars program teaches dancers how to embrace setbacks, manage stress, and develop resilience through consistent practice. With every mastered step or routine, students gain confidence in their abilities and learn the value of persistence. This supportive environment helps teens stay motivated and approach challenges with a positive mindset—skills they carry with them on and off the dance floor.
Create Lasting Connections and Grow Together
Joining the Super Stars program at Jensen Performing Arts means becoming part of a close-knit, encouraging community. Our dancers support one another through every challenge and celebrate achievements together. With a focus on teamwork, collaboration, and mutual respect, students build lasting friendships and grow together both inside and outside the studio.

We have been going to JPA for almost 4 years. The entire staff is great! The teachers are well experienced and their dedication to teaching the dancers is above and beyond. JPA is a staple in Milpitas with many opportunities to perform year round at events within our community. JPA teaches our kids to be brave and confident! Highly recommended the dance studio!
My kids love dancing here! All the teachers we have had (Mandy, Amanda, Sumi, Charles, Joanna) have been excellent. They are not only good dance teachers, but they are very good with small kids. It's an encouraging and fun environment and not too stressful.
JPA is a wonderful studio for all ages. I started dancing there as a child, I have continued on there as an adult, and my children dance there now. We love JPA!
Excellent dance studio! Very family friendly and terrific dance training
