It was a great celebration dance party for all of the "Dance with Jay" students. Having completed another year of learning new dances and getting to express their own style, the students showed off their hip-hop steps and some amazing break dancing. For the third year, the Bradley Beach Fire Department generously donated the use of their space for this evening and the Luau decorations added a festive look. The Firemen and especially Mr. Joe Malysko, who manages the banquet room, were very helpful.
"Jammin' J", the evening's DJ as well as dance instructor, Jay Bowman, is an amazing and motivational teacher. Couples dancing included the Oldies, music of the 50's and Latin music, that wowed the crowds. All of the standard line dances, new and old, were played. Everyone had a terrific time.
Take a look at the photos to glimpse some of the fun. "Dance with Jay" classes are held throughout the year on Monday and Tuesday evenings for older teens and adults with disAbilities.
