Brand new to dance classes? Trying to decide which dance studio to enroll at?  Finding that all dance schools seem to be the same?

Arts in Motion opened in 1993, and since then thousands of parents and students have recognized the value of our unique, fine-arts based philosophy and age-appropriate class format.

We realize you have a choice between several different dance schools. All studios are not the same. We constantly review our class offerings and curriculum, give personalized customer service, and provide ongoing training and mentoring to our staff.  This is to ensure we are always providing our students and parents with the best experience possible.

Today, as in 1993, there are several different studios to choose from. We invite you to compare all of the features and options to see why our studio has been chosen by so many families. To view a studio comparison checklist click here.

4 Things Every Parent Should Know Before Choosing A Dance Studio

Arts in Motion is a fun environment with a fine arts-based, age appropriate philosophy that supports both excellence and a balanced approach to dance as an extracurricular activity.

Professional teachers who are also professional dancers provide potent instruction, adult leadership, and a foundation for all movement.

AiM offers classes for earnest students of all ages.  Strong early childhood classes titled Jumpin' For Joy and Magnificent Moving Kidz are available to younger dancers and AimDance for Kidz is an enjoyable program for school aged kids -- a unique approach to dance that creates a moving experience, building smart, strong, joyful dancers who gain an understanding of movement that lasts a lifetime.  These classes utilize the Magnificent Movement™ program, developed and trademarked by Susan Bennett, former Arts in Motion director.  The program uses principles of education, development, and dance to create an unforgettable, exciting movement class for children.  We are the first and only studio to utilize this program and train our teachers in the Magnificent Movement™ method.  Get more information about this program at movingkidz.com.

AiM also features an excellent Ensemble program for dancers who want to make dance a priority and perform. This special group of talented and committed dancers work together through September and May and perform throughout St. Louis.

Our motto:
"Dance like you feel it. Jump for joy."

The first words that come to my mind when I reflect on my daughter's experiences at AiM are "supportive" and "instructive". She has been able to dance in an environment which has encouraged her personal growth and group participation without the negative stresses of competition.

The instructors are highly qualified dancers with a variety of backgrounds who themselves currently perform in professional ensembles. They are "real world" creative artists. And being a member of the AiM Ensemble has given her the opportunity to regularly perform in a number of settings, thereby improving her performance skills. These ongoing performances have given her the opportunity to improve her dancing by learning from each performance and applying what she has learned to the next venue rather than having the "one-shot" chance of dancing her best at a single year-end recital. The multiple age levels involved in the AiM Ensemble has encouraged her ability to work cooperatively with fellow students of varying ages and abilities to create the magic and art of dance.

AiM has taught my daughter not only how to dance, but to become the dance, to love the dance.
