We pride ourselves on small class sizes giving the student more one on one time with instructors which is beneficial for the learning experience. Classes help to increase flexibility, improve circulation, develop and tone the muscles. They also help to improve posture (especially Ballet), balance and coordination. We challenge the student to focus and concentrate on material taught; which also enriches learning through a variety of perspectives, both traditional and experimental. Students are encouraged to set goals while our instructors help them to succeed.
Dance is an Aesthetic experience. It awakens the consciousness of beauty, lending new meaning to movement and form. Dance can be a cultural experience as well. It increases the understanding
of choices and rituals from a broad range of historical, social and cultural perspectives. It gives the student an overall appreciation for all forms of dance.
We promote understanding, cooperation, respect and consideration of others. We encourage mutual teamwork in a fun and open environment. Although dance is a fun way to exercise it too is an art form whereby creativity and expression engages both mind and body. Students of Akimbo:
