The INSPIRE Dance Academy is an audition-based program designed for students aged 5-17 who are eager to enhance their dance skills beyond a single weekly class. This program offers increased performance opportunities and accelerated progress without the full-time commitment required by a Dance Company. The Academy is comprised of five teams, each organized by age and technical skill level, with personalized training schedules tailored to develop and showcase choreography throughout the year.

Our teams provide exceptional training aimed at preparing dancers for their future endeavors in the dance world. While all Academy teams participate in competitions, with the exception of the Starlets, our youngest team, the emphasis remains on dance education. We strive to offer a richer experience of the art form, avoiding an exclusive focus on competition.

We expect both students and their parents to maintain good attendance, uphold a positive attitude, and commit to focusing and working diligently. Through this dedication, we not only become better dancers but also grow as individuals.
