AC Dance Philosophy
Our mission at AC Dance is to encourage the maximum potential of all our students. Not only will they achieve the highest level of technical training, but more importantly they will develop grit, grace and integrity. From Vaganova to Cecchetti to Balanchine, our students are exposed to a wide range of ballet methodologies. All of this serious training happens in a supportive and lively environment where creativity and laughter are encouraged.
AC Dance introduces dancers to the art of dance while providing a deeper understanding of the healing effects that dance and physical activity can have on a person.
Through a series of informed and proven techniques taught at AC Dance, dancers will come away with an unparalleled experience preparing them for their creative futures with confidence and grace. Dancers are encouraged to train hard, practice self discipline, and push their personal limits while developing their techniques at AC Dance.
Discipline, persistence, determination, and curiosity are what it takes to train with AC Dance. If you fail, and you will many times, you have to pick yourself back up and start again. This strong work ethic is at the core of AC Dance, where we all strive to pursue our dreams in a vibrant, collaborative, and positive atmosphere.
AC Dance promotes diversity, inclusion and community through ballet and other forms of dance and fitness. We all have a role to play in ensuring equality and social justice. Every race, color, religion, sexual orientation, gender and national origin have always and will always have a place at AC Dance. Discrimination of any sort is not tolerated at AC Dance in any form by anyone.
AC Dance stands with Black Lives Matter.
