About Dance AS
Dance AS:
More Than a Name, A Movement
Dance AS is more than a dance studio—it’s a declaration, a purpose, and a place where dancers discover their 'why.' Founded on the belief that movement has the power to transform, Dance AS invites dancers of all ages and abilities to explore their passion, express their emotions, and build meaningful connections through dance.
Our name is a statement: Dance AS Expression. Dance AS Growth. Dance AS Community. Dance AS Family. Every dancer who steps into our space is encouraged to explore what dance means to them—whether it’s a personal goal, a dream for the future, or a deeper truth about who they are.
At Dance AS, we offer more than just classes in ballet, jazz, contemporary, and hip-hop. We provide a supportive and inspiring environment where dancers are encouraged to take risks, set goals, and celebrate their progress. From our youngest Demi Dancers to our Senior Division, we cultivate confidence, artistry, and technical excellence.
Above all, Dance AS is a community and a family—a place where encouragement, authenticity, and passion fuel every step. Here, you are not just learning dance; you are discovering your voice, your purpose, and your place in something greater.
Dance AS is whatever you need it to be. What does dance mean to you?
Mission & Vision
At the core of our mission is the profound belief in the transformative power of dance and the performing arts. We aspire to cultivate not just skilled dancers, but individuals enriched with a deep love for the art form, laying the foundation for personal growth and development. Our commitment extends beyond the mere mastery of dance techniques; we are dedicated to fostering values that will resonate throughout our students' lives.
Through our programs, we aim to instill in each student a sense of personal confidence, focus, and determination. We recognize that the benefits of dance education reach far beyond the studio, contributing to the holistic development of individuals. Our conviction lies in the idea that an enriching education, one that values creativity and discipline alike, serves as a catalyst for lifelong success.
At Dance AS Dance Academy, we firmly believe that every student possesses a unique contribution to the arts, and conversely, that the arts have something invaluable to offer each student. Our philosophy hinges on the idea that diversity in both bodies and expressions of love for dance is not only accepted but celebrated. It is in this inclusive environment that the heart of a dancer takes root, nurturing a passion that transcends physical appearances and embraces the myriad ways in which dance can be embodied.
Integrity, inspiration, creativity, community, and gratitude form the pillars of our ethos, shaping every aspect of our academy. We strive to uphold these principles in all that we do, creating a supportive and nurturing space where dancers of all backgrounds can thrive. Together, we are more than a studio; we are a vibrant community united by our love for dance and our dedication to personal and artistic growth.
