Expressing Your Faith Through Dance
Welcome to Purpose Dance Academy
What Makes Us Unique
Purpose Dance Academy was created to offer a christ-centered dance environment, with quality technical instruction. Dancers will not only be taught proper dance techniques, but also be taught with an emphasis on self-worth and identity in Christ and worshiping God through dance. We strive to not only teach dance but also confidence that radiates to all aspects of a dancer's life. Our classes feature christian music, appropriate choreography, encouraging teachers and a supportive atompshere.
All Purpose Dance Academy students will get to perform in our end of year recital and participate in our end of year photoshoot.
Psalm 149:3: Let us praise his name with dancing.

She began teaching at the age of 13, and taught a variety of ages and dance styles and developed a strong love for inspiring a love of dance in kids. She performed in 6 professional shows with Drayton Entertainment at the Kings Wharf Theatre as a part of the Children's Ensemble between the ages of 10-16.
