Jennifer Bishop’s School of Dance (JBSD) is dedicated to providing exceptional technical training in a positive environment.

Voted Best Dance Studio 6 years in a row in the Advantage Reader And The Alton Telegraph!

My 14-year-old daughter has been dancing for 11 years, 7 of those competitively. We’ve been through 3 dance studios during that time, and JBSD is the only one where “dance family” isn’t just a hashtag on the back of t-shirts. Jennifer Bishop is passionate about dance and meets each student where they are, mentally, physically, and emotionally. The passion shows through the in-house choreography, which is some of the most innovative I’ve ever seen, and consistently wins high point awards. My daughter is challenged, but not discouraged. Accountable, but not shamed. The culture is inclusive of all races, genders, sexual orientations, body types, and financial means. We have not had the typical drama we experienced at other studios. I’ve been doing this for 11-years and can say definitively that this will be my daughter’s permanent dance family. My only regret is that we didn’t start her at JBSD a long time ago.
