Arts in Motion provides a rigorous, pre-professional dance program in an atmosphere that is supportive, kind, and fun.
While learning real dance skills and sophisticated choreography, dancers develop self-confidence and a sense of the importance of teamwork as members of a performing group. This training really benefits the body, mind and artistic spirit. We enthusiastically recommend it to students and their parents. |
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. |
