Leaps And Bounds Dance Academy
About
Leaps and Bounds Dance Academy is a non-competitive, performance based studio. We believe that dance should be a fun learning experience. We will teach proper technique and placement, but with the enjoyment of movement at the core. Dance can be an incredible outlet to express emotions and we want to allow that expression. We will avoid unnecessary fees and expensive costumes to allow all students that wish to dance the opportunity. Performance based dance allows the fun of performing without the stress and fees of the competition world. At Leaps and Bounds Dance Academy we want to provide a dance studio that is fun, teaches dance technique without competition emphasis and limit the extra fees and time often associated with dance in today's world. We have classes for kids from 2-18 and adult classes as well. We teach Ballet, Jazz and Modern dance. We also have adult ballroom classes available.
