Progressive Dance Studio is committed first and foremost to fostering the love of dance and the performing arts in our students. We are passionate about dance, the performing arts and education in Bergen County. Progressive Dance Studio’s primary focus is developing each student’s talents by nurturing their individual abilities. Our mission is to instill self-confidence and self-esteem in our students and foster passion and appreciation for dance that each student can carry throughout their lives, no matter what profession they may choose. We believe in providing the highest quality of professional instruction.
From our humble beginnings as a one-room ballet studio to a state-of-the art dance education institution, over the past 44 years Progressive Dance Studio has grown into one of the top dance studios in the tri-state area. Our award winning Synergy Dance company competes against some of the best dancers on the East Coast. We offer a wide array of classes in all the major forms of dance; Ballet, Tap, Jazz, Contemporary, Hip Hop, and Acro.
In 2011, Progressive Dance Studio established the Synergy Dance Company (SDC), a series of Dance Companies that participate in Dance Competitions and Conventions. Synergy Dance Company members receive an opportunity to both compete against some of the top dancers on the East Coast, and to be taught by master teachers in their dance form. Over the last twelve years, PDS has won numerous awards for being one of the Top Dance Studios in New Jersey and throughout the Tri-State Region.

Founded in 2010 by Jolene Perry, Synergy Dance Company (SDC), is a 501 c3 entity that was created to be a community-based, pre-professional ensemble of dancers. SDC showcases dancers ages 5 through 18, who are passionate about dance and performing.
SDC’s purpose is to foster excellence in dance through public performances at community outreach events and through participation in regional dance conventions, workshops, and competitions.
SDC is for the performer who has a passion for dance! Members of SDC are required to take a minimum of 3-10 classes per week, depending on the student’s age and Company they’re in. These classes include both specific company classes and electives.
At PDS, we have the Petite, Pearls, Emeralds, Sapphires, Diamond, 4 Hip Hop Companies, and one Tap Company. To be in a Company, students must audition in the spring for the following season and meet specific class requirements.
In addition to the opportunity to perform regularly, SDC members are also offered guest workshops that are taught by well known, and renowned, professional dance educators/choreographers.
The Company members have an opportunity to hone their performance skills through frequent performances and to give back to the community by sharing in noteworthy charity functions and fundraising events.
