HJS was established in 1995 as a non-profit foundation/stichting in order to provide open training for professional-level dancers, and has since then developed into one of the most important open dance training centers in Europe.
The namesake of the foundation, the late Henny Jurriëns, was one of The Netherlands best known and loved dancers, noted for his kind and generous character. HJS offers dance training the whole year through.
