What we’re about
Have you always wanted to learn how to partner dance, but have never had the time, money, or interested friends? Check out Blues Dance New York! We offer low-cost group dance lessons every evening before our dance social, as well as private lessons and workshops. Since everyone dances with each other, you don't need to bring your own partner - we promise you'll make friends and have a great time! You can even volunteer just one hour to get free admission for the night. We pride ourselves on being friendly, warm, and welcoming. It's more than a dance: it brings people together.

Jontavious Willis is resolved in his mission: to reinvigorate today’s Blues with the spirit of the past. Inspired by a time when the Blues were plentiful and rhythm reigned supreme, Jontavious leverages his unique sound—a synthesis of his Georgia heritage and reverence for traditional Blues—to get the world dancing again.
A Grammy-nominated musician and songwriter, Jontavious performs original, toe-tapping tunes in the style of Delta, Piedmont, Texas, and Gospel Blues. Dynamic vocals, technical prowess, and an abundance of Southern charm keep Jontavious sending jolts of vitality through the Blues community.https://jontaviouswillis.com/
