Our Dance course teaches students to speak the language of the spirit. The vocabulary of dance equips each student with the ability to speak from her soul without saying a word. Dance Instructor Dwana Smallwood uses the medium of dance to create an environment in which students can re- discover and appreciate the music and cultures which exist in their country and abroad.

By learning various styles of dance (West African, Modern, Ballet, Jazz, Gumboot, and Contemporary) students’ minds are broadened. Each student is taught to feel good about her body and to have a positive image of herself. Students are encouraged to treat dance as an essential and pure part of their lives.
