About Us
A Mission of Movement
Our mission is to bring the GOOD WORD to the world, through dance. We are a team of Christian teachers, with technique as strong as our faith, and pure love in our hearts for the children of this world. We offer many different genres of dance, all to worship music that will bring joy to so many. We believe that worship and dance is for everyone, so we offer dance scholarship programs, so that no child will ever miss out on the arts due to financial situations. Together as a community, and through movement, we can bring love, light and hope.
