The Dance curriculum is structured to teach students both musicality and discipline. Through dance, students develop their gross motor coordination, balance, stamina, strength, spatial perception and confidence.
 
Students also learn the vocabulary of dance, which fosters a deeper  appreciation of this art form. They are exposed to the many different cultures which use dance as a form of communication, ritual, and performance in South Africa and abroad. Instructors also teach students how to connect music to  movement, transforming the classroom into a space of uninhibited expression and enjoyment.
