TESTIMONIALS
I first met Jodie as my teacher when I was 15 years old. If you step foot into Jodie's class, you will receive the best training available. In 2019 I invited Jodie to teach at my event 'Mayoral Training Program'. I have absolutely no doubt that anyone who is fortunate enough to be in her presence and learn from her will receive incredible training and experiences.

I would not be where I am today in my professional dance career without the support, dedication and encouragement from Jodie Clark. She prepared me for nothing short of professional training for a professional career. Growing and developing as an aspiring young, black, female artist with Jodie’s generosity, knowledge and love (for dancing and her students) is something I will hold forever.’
