Welcome from Linda Hurkmans, Artistic Director
As the Artistic Director, it is my pleasure to pass on the legacy of San José Dance Theatre, now in its 53rd year, to the next generation. I realize that students have different talents and different goals concerning their dancing. I honor all of them and want to encourage their love of dance.

From the longest running San Jose Nutcracker to our ballet school’s annual performances, we provide numerous quality dance opportunities to all.
