Our Approach . . .
Kathryn Howard believes in a wholesome and holistic approach to dance. Dance is the vehicle for building not only artistry, poise, grace, coordination, and rhythm, but also self-esteem in children. As they see themselves accomplish goals through discipline and effort, they want to progress and "shine" in other areas of their life as well.
Classes are taught in a positive atmosphere where creativity is allowed to blossom along with technical skill and stylization. Kathryn feels that she is helping not only to develop dancers, but healthy, happy people.
