Welcome to NVJC!

Making life and the world better

one kind deed, one respectful response, one act of service at a time.


Our sincere desire is to have every student that comes through our program leave with increased self-esteem and skills that will serve them well for the rest of their lives as they navigate interacting with others.

Northern Virginia Junior Cotillion offers introductory and continuing instruction in etiquette and social dance for all 6th-12th grade students. New students from all schools are welcome!

A new season starts every fall. Registration opens soon. We hope you will join us!
