Our Philosophy
Dance training is valuable in all aspects of life. Dance lessons are a part of the dance experience. In addition to being fun, studio dance lessons help develop physical fitness, coordination, etiquette, poise, teamwork, and appreciation of performing arts. The heightened awareness of balance, rhythm, and physical capabilities that dance provides can improve performance in many other activity areas.
Our focus in dance is education through instruction in technique and stage presence. Our classes emphasize respect and discipline in a positive, fun atmosphere.
Our goal is to help our students reach their fullest potential. This comes through personal commitments and dedication from our staff and our students. If you care to know more about our philosophy in dance education at DDC, feel free to call or stop by the studio.
Performances
Performing provides not only a goal for the dancer, but an opportunity to share their experience with family and friends. The studio will participate in the Christmas City of the North Parade in November and all students will perform in our annual spring recital. Our performing & competition lines also perform in local dance shows and compete at 2-3 competitions each season.
