Our Philosophy

We are much more than just a dance studio. As a 501(c)3 nonprofit, we strive to make dance classes accessible for all, regardless of age, race, gender, dance level, or ability to pay. At Dance It Forward, we keep your dancer happy, healthy, safe and loved. We believe that Dance is a commitment to principles; an art form beyond rankings and judgment. This is why we are NOT a competition school.
