Student feedback
“As a dancer who was taught by Jen Cole for 7 years, (2 of which under very close instruction in a half day program) my dancing was significantly enhanced and aided by her coaching. It was clear to everyone that her genuine care and her investment in her students was what set her apart from other teachers. Jen was committed to helping all of us be the best we could be, not only in dance but also in further endeavours.
I was consistently blown away by the caliber of Jen’s creative ability in choreography and choices she made as a teacher and dancer herself. What I appreciated most about being a student under Jen Cole was that she inspired me to challenge and push myself to be better than I thought I could be, rather than relying on natural ability or doing anything halfway.
As a teacher, Jen Cole has made such a significant impact on my life and who I am as an adult after training with her during my formative years as a teenager. She was invested not only in furthering and improving my dancing but also in being there for me in other ways, too.
What I enjoyed most about Jen Cole’s teaching was how she always managed to find a balance between praise and constructive criticism so that a student felt simultaneously supported but also held accountable and encouraged to grow and learn.”
