TEACHING PHILOSOPHY
We believe that at the core of learning proper dance technique, discipline is required. With discipline come the excitement and fun associated with dance. When a dancer achieves that split, triple turn or section of a dance that has been troubling them, that's when it is fun. We seek to empower our students through positive feedback as well as providing honest evaluations and encouraging each student on an individual level. We see potential in each student and expect that they will always put their best effort forward to be the best dancers they can possibly be. Students in the school are expected to respect the class environment, those who are in it, have an open mind to the art form and the freedom to express themselves when performing. Our classes are structured but we always encourage questions and exploring creative ideas provided by the students. We strive to provide a loving, risk taking environment where students are nurtured as they are pushed to improve.
