Junior & Youth
At The Ballroom and Latin Academy, we believe every child deserves the chance to shine on the dance floor! Our Junior (ages 8–14) and Youth (ages 14–17) programs are designed to build confidence, coordination, and creativity in a supportive and fun environment. From elegant Ballroom to high-energy Latin rhythms, our students learn the foundations of dance while developing teamwork, discipline, and self-expression.
In 2026, we are pleased to introduce Ballroom Minis for ages 5-7! This program will be designed to introduce your child to the world of Ballroom and Latin dance in a fun and supportive setting. Register below for interest in the Ballroom Mini program!
Key Benefits of Ballroom & Latin Dance for Kids!
Partner Work!
Unlike solo styles, ballroom dance requires working closely with a partner—building communication, patience, and mutual respect from a young age.
Social Confidence!
Ballroom teaches structured etiquette, eye contact, posture, and poise—skills that help kids carry themselves with confidence in social and public settings.
Goal Orientated!
Kids are motivated by clear pathways for growth (medals, competitions, showcases), teaching them commitment, progress tracking, and pride in achievement.
Critical Thinking!
Ballroom incorporates intricate footwork, timing, and lead-follow dynamics that develop memory, focus, and critical thinking—perfect brain training!
Parent Testimonials
As a parent, we look to provide the best opportunities for our children and after having taken part in Jordan’s classes myself, I quickly realised that to not utilise Jordan’s expertise for my 10-year-old daughter’s dance training would be foolish.
Sophie has been attending classes with Jordan for all of 2024 and Jordan is developing her skill-sets in both Ballroom and Latin styles. I was watching videos recently of her progress from the onset of the year until now, and her improvement is phenomenal. Jordan is the perfect balance of friendly but firm. I love how much he focusses on technique and finesse, and not just the steps, because being a standout dancer/performer encompasses so many elements and Jordan knows this first hand.
Jordan’s continual patience, support and dedication to Sophie’s training thus far is beyond appreciated. I highly recommend Jordan Saisi Dance for both children and adults alike.
