Our Philosophy

"Everyone should personally experience the Arts...Studies have shown that children who receive early training in music and/or dance experience have greater mathematical skill development and higher thinking aptitudes, most notably involving pattern and sequence. Excellent training in dance also develops balance, control, posture, focus and listening skills and promotes self confidence, creativity and a sense of exuberance in the student..."

Mission/Goals

• To instill a love of movement and dance in our students
• To help children and adults understand and appreciate the art of dance
• To create a positive experience and environment in which our students can learn and grow
• To promote the development of age-appropriate physical skills and dance technique
• To promote the development of social skills including:

a. participating and sharing within a group

b. leading and following

c. developing an awareness of personal space and respect for the personal space of others

• To encourage and develop personal body health and wellness in our students
• To educate parents, dancers and the community about the importance of dance in all our lives as a valuable, creative art
