About us

Salsa & Bachata classes in Maastricht, Genk, Aachen & Balen

Quality & Fun!

We are the in-house Salsa school at dance-center Bernaards

We organize Salsa classes, -parties and -socials in Maastricht.

Team Jason consists of Jason, Loes, Melissa, Boukje, Simone, Patrick, Laura & Esther. We also teach in Aachen on Monday for Dance Fusion Aachen, on Fridays in Balen for Dans&co and in Genk on Sundays.

We pride ourselves to represent Salsa with a unique and effective structure, but we take the most pride in our trademark "Just Jason" atmosphere.

At this point we provide 5 levels of Bachata and 6 levels of Salsa. All of them structured with solid techniques and an informal & above all fun atmosphere.

Our Structure

We don't just teach patterns, we teach the techniques and intent behind these patterns. We want you to understand, not just copy.

Level

Our levels and teachings fully comply to international standards.

Philosophy

Fun! That's our philosophy. We understand that some people love social dancing while others want to keep pushing their level. We want to be a home to all types of dancers.

Community

Our goal is to create a community of dancers who are not concerned about style or level, but just love dancing.

Testimonials

Dalton

Always a good vibe :-)

Jason

I run it, so I think it's quite good although I might be somewhat biased. ;)

Alex

Jason and his "gang" create such a nice environment and they really know how to show their love and respect for the music, the dance, the traditions and history behind them and especially for their students!

Love it!

Daisy

Zeer goede lessen, goede basis en goede techniek, de bouwstenen van mooie vooruitgang in je dansen😉👌👍 Gezellige parties, no nonsens just fun

Jordi

De passie die Jason heeft is enorm voelbaar. Hij en zijn team nemen je mee op een fantastische reis waarbij het hebben van 'plezier' op nummer 1 staat! Wij hebben les mogen hebben van Melissa, Loes en Boukje, en onze complimenten naar alledrie de dames :-) De basis, de technieken, de diepgang, het gevoel voor ritme gaat verder dan je wellicht gewend bent. Salsa is a way of life geworden.

HEEL VEEL DANK!

Suzanne

Ik dans al een tijdje en was opzoek naar een nieuwe uitdaging. Bij Just Jason heb ik deze uitdaging gevonden en kan ik me verder ontwikkelen in de salsa. De groepen zijn niet te groot, waardoor je voldoende aandacht en de nodige aanwijzingen krijgt. Echter super!

Mariko

Jason is amazing! He got me addicted to dancing!!! Loved every minute of the classes and parties and didn't want to leave the dance floor! Jason and his team share with you: great dancing classes, chill and fun Caribbean vibes, many laughs and a lot of happiness! Go dance and enjoy at Just Jason!! Thank you so much Jason and Melissa and the team! Much love to you!

Jason

Jason

Jason, the owner of Just Jason dance company has been active as a teacher for almost 20 years now. Everybody in team Jason has directly or indirectly been trained by him. This way Just Jason is guaranteed to keep to quality classes and the "people first" mentality.

Quality & Fun will make all the difference

Boukje

Boukje

Boukje has grown exponentially since joining Just Jason in it's early days. Beyond helping to keep Just Jason on track with several administrative tasks as well as course planning, both practical and concerning class structure, she is also the trainer for all of Just Jason's show & training groups. She is also a member of Just Jason's showteam: La Onda.

Loes

Loes

Loes has been here since the inception of Just Jason dance company. From it's humble beginnings to what it is now. She usually teaches the Belgian classes, helps out with administration, planning and getting Jason to be on time. She is also part of Just Jason's showteam: La Onda.

Esther

Esther is one of the teachers at Just Jason dance company. Since joining Just Jason it has been a great privelage to see her love for teaching dance grow as big as her love for dancing itself. She is also part of our Semi-pro team.

Simone

Simone has been around for most of Just Jason's existence and is in charge of the Monday classes at Just Jason. She has proven to be a true teamplayer and has grown into teaching at Just Jason over the course of a couple of years. She is also part of our Semi-pro team.

Patrick

Patrick has been around for most of Just Jason's existence and is in charge of the Monday classes at Just Jason. He on the downlow is also our IT-guy and part of our showteam: La Onda.

Isa

Isa was at Just Jason at the start, left for a year, came back and has since been one of the staples at Just Jason. She joined several Student choreography projects, jumped in at several classes as a leader or follower where needed and is usually taking care of student registrations during open days. She is now part of our semi-pro team and teaches in Aachen with Jason.

Rene & Celine

We are Rene & Celine and we are the owners of Kizombrella. As the name already states, we do everything and anything that falls under the umbrella of Kizomba.

Kizomba is a beautiful dance to watch and especially enjoy as a dancer. It can be quite hard to see all the technique and knowledge needed to make this dance nice and flowy. So our goal is to teach everybody these techniques and make sure the dance is fun of course!

We'd like to welcome you all to try out our classes!

Melissa

Melissa, Jason's girlfriend has literally been here from the start. Jason & Melissa started dating while Just Jason dance company was still just a concept. Jason & Melissa both were the very first and only two teachers at Just Jason for a couple of months. She took a break from teaching to focus on other things including studying, but the dancing never left her. She is slowly taking up teaching responsibilities again and is part of our new training team.

Man-Teng

Man-Teng has been taking almost all classes as leader & follower at Just Jason and has been jumping in as dance-partner for multiple classes.

She is now part of the semi-pro team and teaches Salsa Intermediate 1 & 2 on Sundays in Genk

Jonathan

Jonathan is the newest addition to the Just Jason teacher team. He has been part of the first Training team and is now part of the Just Jason semi-pro team.

Having taught Salsa beginners 1 & 2 under the guidance of Jason he is now teaching on his own.

Helping out

Due to COVID we are currently not mixing dance-partners.

At Just Jason helping out means you help out in a course that is lower than your actual course so we can always focus on the dance-partner you are helping out with.

If that is the case, than this course is free of charge. So in essence you only pay for your highest level course. This goes for both leaders & followers.

La Onda

We started a group in 2016, motivated to becoming better dancers, better performers. We called this group: La Onda. This means "the ripple" since we hope to spread our love for this dance and our message like a ripple in the water.
And our message is:

Always keep growing, always have fun!

We have since worked hard to grow as a team and tell our stories through dance. So come see us soon!

FAQ

Do I need a dance partner?

You do not need to sign up with a dance partner for our classes. We will bring single dancers together or couple them with dancers form a higher level. We do this in the second week of the course, since we can not predict our signups during open day. You can also try our Facebook group for a dance partner.

To find a dance partner, join our Facebook group.

How much does it cost?

Our current beginners-courses are €55 for 6 weeks. Our higher levels cost €100 for 12 weeks, with the option to pay per 6 weeks. We also offer discounts for taking multiple classes at the same time. Our Summer workshops cost €10 for 1 workshop, €15 for 2 and €20 for 3 in one day.

Remember though that you don't have to sign up for the trial class.

Due to COVID we're currently not providing try-out classes.

Do I need to sign up for the trial class?

Every first class of a course is considered a trial/open day.

You don’t have to sign up for the try out class, you can just drop by and sign up for the course afterwards. Signing up does guarantee you a spot in the course if classes are too full and gives you a better chance at finding a dance partner.
