Jarrod Harden
Jarrod Harden has been teaching dance for over 15 years and is thrilled to be joining the faculty of Destined to Dance for the tenth anniversary season! Jarrod or “Mr. J” as his students call him, met Miss Amanda when they were dance majors at Montclair State University. Since that time, Jarrod served as Director of Applause Dance Studio in Cranford, NJ which led to him being Co-Founder of Fusion Dance Centre in Kenilworth, NJ.
Mr. J has danced in musical theatre and industrial shows all along the east coast and even on MTV. Since those days his passion shifted and he loves teaching students of all skill levels. Mr. J’s classes focus on technique given in a variety of ways but always with an emphasis on fun. He says, “I’ve found that students just absorb more when they’re working hard but also having a good time. And class is more enjoyable for me that way too!”
