Our mission at Dance Therapy Arts is to enrich lives through the healing power of dance, fostering physical, emotional, and spiritual well being for individuals of all ages and abilities. We hope to inspire our students to obtain success via the medium of creative expression. Our goal is to develop social & emotional learning skills through dance involving understanding and managing emotions, feelings, setting positive goals, empathy for others, engaging in positive relationships and solving problems effectively.
Through our organized, community and school-based dance and performing arts program, we seek to 1.) Promote active lifestyles, 2.) Enhance the education of children in our local community, and 3.) Develop creativity, technique, and artistry. Dance Therapy Arts offers a creative arts program rooted in the expressive nature of dance itself. We believe that movement is fundamental to life, and that dance provides an opportunity for holistic development. Not only does dance help to develop rhythm, strength, coordination, flexibility, and fluidity of motion while building muscles, it also supports the development of self-confidence, discipline, memorization, teamwork, and other life skills that yield positive results.
We believe that dance is one of the most beautiful expressions of one’s feelings. At Dance Therapy Arts we focus on the betterment of the community using dance as a beneficial tool for stress management, self-confidence and wellness.
