What Does Urban & Soul Line Dancing Look Like?
Jess Dance’s Mission
Jess Dance exists to utilize urban and soul line dancing as therapy in motion, creating space for individuals to release, restore, and reach others through music and movement.
RELEASE. RESTORE. REACH.
RELEASE stored stress and tension through rhythmic movement, breath, and repetition—supporting nervous-system regulation.
RESTORE balance and energy as movement stimulates mood-regulating chemicals and promotes mental clarity.
REACH within yourself while connecting with others by engaging in synchronized movement that supports social bonding and emotional safety thus, building community.
“Dance doesn’t ask who you are; it invites you as you are.” -Anonymous
Who Is Jess Dance?
Jessica Steinbring began her dance journey at just three years old, training in ballet, tap, and jazz at what was once known as Gayle’s Dance Studio in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. She later became a member of Kids Korps, a traveling dance group that allowed her to perform for diverse audiences—ranging from nursing homes and local malls to festivals, fairs, and even Disney World. These early experiences helped shape her confidence, versatility, and strong stage presence.
In high school, Jessica danced on the Nicolet Dance Team, performing at basketball and football games while also competing alongside talented dancers at competitions. She continued her dance education during her first year of college at the University of Wisconsin–Milwaukee before shifting her academic focus. Jessica transferred to Milwaukee Area Technical College, where she studied Early Childhood Education and graduated with honors.
Seven years ago, Jessica rediscovered her love for dance through a dear friend who introduced her to Urban & Soul Line Dancing. Through this journey, she connected with inspiring instructors—many of whom she still dances with today—and found a new way to blend movement, community, and joy.
Today, Jessica leads Urban & Soul Line Dance classes throughout Milwaukee, WI, offering both private and group instruction. Her classes are inclusive, welcoming all dance and fitness levels, all people, and all ages. Jessica is passionate about creating an energetic, encouraging, and welcoming space where everyone can release, restore, and connect with others through music and movement!
She looks forward to giving you a memorable dance experience—one you can share with your favorite people.
So let’s connect… and Jess Dance!
