COMMUNICATIONS COORDINATOR
WAVES COACH
DANCE INSTRUCTOR

Hello! I'm Ms. Jaclyn, and I teach Dance at Pep & Pizzazz!
 

Pep & Pizzazz has been part of my life since the very beginning. I started dancing here when Pep first opened its doors, and over the years this place has become so much more than a dance studio—it's become family.
 

Growing up at Pep gave me so many wonderful memories, lifelong friendships, and opportunities to grow in confidence. Now, it's such a blessing to give back by helping today's students experience that same joy and sense of belonging.
 

As a dance teacher, I love sharing my passion for dance while encouraging students to work hard, believe in themselves, and celebrate every milestone along the way. One of my favorite parts of teaching is watching students gain confidence as they realize they're capable of more than they ever imagined.
 

I also have the privilege of serving as our Tiny Tot Dance Coordinator, where I work with our youngest dancers and support our Tiny Tot teaching team. Using the Twinkle Stars curriculum, I help train our preschool dance teachers and prepare engaging monthly lesson plans that ensure every Tiny Tot class is filled with age-appropriate learning, creativity, fun, and confidence-building moments.
 

In addition, I'm the coach of our Dazzling Waves performance team. I love watching students use their gifts to encourage others and make a positive impact in our community through dance.
 

Behind the scenes, I also serve as Pep's Communications Coordinator, helping keep our Pep families informed and connected through weekly emails, app notifications, and staff communication. I love making sure our families feel supported and equipped so they can focus on enjoying every part of the Pep experience.
 

As someone who has grown up in this community, I know firsthand that Pep is about so much more than dance.
 

It's about building confidence.
 

It's about creating friendships.
 

It's about growing into the person God created you to be.
 

Most of all, it's about making sure every student and every family knows they are...

Seen. Heard. Known. Celebrated.
 

I'm so thankful to be part of a team that is committed to helping children grow from their very first dance class through every stage of their journey. I can't wait to welcome your family to Pep & Pizzazz!
