As a dance instructor Josh has taught at studios all across New Jersey and NYC, and has a class on CLI Studios. As a dance teacher Josh’s motto is to take class seriously, but not too seriously. He aims to create an environment that values the hard work and determination needed to improve in the art form, while still finding moments to remind them of the joy of dance. He loves to make whichever studio he is in a safe space, where the students can feel seen, heard, and are encouraged to be their most authentic self as a dancer and more importantly as a person.
