A David Dance Company’s dance program is structured to encourage students to explore and discover the various forms of dance in a meaningful way and will enable students to express themselves though a non-verbal means of communication. The program gives students a comprehensive understanding of dance as they learn specific dances, look at dances a crrste their own dances. Through dance and experiences in the three components of the program. Self Esteem, Self Control & Self Discipline, students will be encouraged to explore, reflect on and learn about dance.

Dance links the body, intellect and emotions. This integration provides students with opportunities that further personal and social growth and promote well-being. at the same time, dance gives students another means of communicating their own ways of seeing and responding to the world around them. Ultimately, A David Dance Company strives to foster a life-long interest in dance. Students will be challenged to reach new levels of discovery & awareness and to understand dance and its value.

A David Dance Company was created in August of 2003 – eight years after ‘the dream’. ADDC was created to nurture the dreams of others, to introduce children (and children at heart) to the exciting world of dance, expression and creativity. Through this endeavor, I have continued to encounter bumps in the road (on the job training on how to run a business), detours (making a lot of mistakes), long stop lights (limited funds) and uturns (questioning my decision to open and whether or not I should close). Not only has ADDC never closed its doors, we are now a growing business with a professional touring company, award winning junior dance troupe and have original dance programs funded by local and state grants!

I wanted to write this letter just for you. You, the student who is eager to learn and develop into the best dancer you can be; You, the parent who desires to utilize other opportunities to reinforce the self esteem, control and discipline which has already been instilled in your child; You, the community partner who aids ADDC in continuing its vital investment within the community and passing the torch of art appreciation; You, the curious onlooker in need of a motivational boost to achieve your own life’s goals and passions.

Thank you for your time and desire to learn about the vision God has given to me. I hope you have been inspired to become apart of ADDC as we continue to “Teach Dance While Building Character.”

Sincerely,

A David Dance Company Founder
