Everyone Is Welcome!
Our motto is ‘every child is a star’ and we welcome all children that would like to dance
regardless of if they just want a bit of grace and poise in their life or would like to learn their
basics in order to go on to full time performing arts training. We welcome children of all
ages, shapes, and sizes.

Safety First!
All of our classes are designed to be as safe as possible for the bodies of our students. We up
date our knowledge yearly so we know what exercises are safe and what are not. Each class
includes a proper warm-up, and care is taken to prevent bad habits that could lead to future
injuries.

Keep It Age-Appropriate!
We believe that all movements and costumes should match the ages of our dancers. We want
your 6-year-old to look and dance like the beautiful 6-year-old that she is, not like a more
mature dancer. We strive for a very tasteful family atmosphere.

Fun Is Hard Work!
The body learns by repetition which we hide in fun dance routines and imaginative imagery
whilst doing exercises. The working towards exams and the end of year show makes the
children try hard to succeed and impress. We use positive feed back and learn to work as a
team to achieve.

Dance is a process, not an overnight event. We keep our classes challenging to students while
not rushing the process that may cause bad technique and injury. Highly enjoyable and fun is
a number one rule!

Respect Is The Key!
At DCA, we strive for an atmosphere of respect. Our teachers show respect for our students
by coming to class with successful lesson plans, and by lovingly and firmly making sure each
student is fulfilling her personal potential. Our students are expected to respect their teachers
by working hard and trying their best in all classes.
