Debra is a great instructor with a high level of expertise in Pilates and Dance instruction and a very positive and relaxed attitude. She is so supportive in helping me restore strength and flexibility following a leg injury. The studio space is the best I’ve seen in NJ. It’s spacious and clean and well equipped. I only tried one Ballet class so far but I will consider trying others soon. There are a variety of Adult Dance/Fitness classes on the schedule so I will try some others.

We are here for each other to celebrate the good times & to be there for each other during the challenging times in life! Throughout it all, Tracy and all of her teachers do everything possible to take care of us physically, socially & emotionally. Currently to survive this situation, she has reached out to us through Virtual Dance classes. They are truly our silver lining in our days. I can’t thank Tracy, Sky, Sophia & Marie enough for their creativity, patience and dedication to being there for all of us. We love & appreciate all of them!!

Tracy I love this studio and all of the teachers. My only comment is that for people who work during the week a night class would be great. Now that Cindy is teaching on Saturday’s ( I love her) I don’t get to take your Jazz class at all. I know the pandemic has been rough but it would be great if the Wednesday class could get added back on

Tribe has done an extraordinary job during this time of COVID to provide their usual high-quality classes online via ZOOM, while still offering these in-studio classes to a small number, wearing masks. It is comforting and energizing to be on Zoom, see our beloved studio and teachers, and still feel the energy of the teaching and the music and the dance coming through our screens. That said, we all hope to be back physically in the studio as soon as it is safe for everyone!

I love TRIBE! I have been going to the studio for 8 years. It’s always a great workout. Such a beautiful/clean space too! Love dancing with my friends there. I miss going to the studio so much (can’t go right now due to Corona/quarantine) but the online dance classes are keeping me connected and sane. Tracy and Sophia are amazing! They always give it their all – nothing compares to a great dance workout. Thank you for ALL you do!

Tribe Body is a great studio! Great teachers! If you don’t want to travel to New York to take the highest level of dance, you don’t have to. Just go to Tribe Body! You will receive the highest level of proficiency with teachers who will give you the personal attention you will never get in New York. Having been a dancer my whole life, this is one of the only studios to provide a class for me that gives me the dance workout and choreography I can’t get anywhere else.
