T.I.M. Philosophy

 Dance at any age is important work that provides lifelong values and is a joyful experience for most. When dance classes are fun, students develop a love & appreciation for the art. A well balanced class addresses the whole person. If applied Dance Classes can provide a positive environment and variety of experiences that promote physical, social, emotional and cognitive growth. The physical benefits of dance class are widely accepted, but the social, emotional, and even academic learning promoted by a good dance program are less popularly understood. But it is a two way street. Dance Classes and Instructors can only do so much. Dancers are responsible for absorbing information and applying information to their academic, social, emotional lives.

Our goals:

        to instill a loving of moving & dancing

         to help students appreciate & understand the art of dance

         to create a positive experience from which students can grow and learn

         to promote the development of age-appropriate physical skills

         to promote development of social skills: participating & sharing within a group, leading & following, appreciating the work of others, developing an awareness of personal space & respect for the personal space of others

         to develop body wellness: understanding & respecting one's own body, learning how to move safely

         to educate all families & communities about the importance & benefits of dance

We welcome back our current students and extend a warm welcome to all new students and their families.

Thank-you,
