Leadership at Springs Dance

A Unique Focus

At Springs Dance, we believe the greatest gift we can give the artistic community is a dancer who not only has a broad knowledge and strong technique, but who can apply those talents in a spirit of confidence and compassion with a commitment to community service.

Dance can be a powerful tool for developing individual leadership skill. The process of learning dance teaches our students to set goals, to work effectively in teams, to creatively solve problems, and a host of other character building attributes.

Leadership Team

Students who have completed a fundamentals or entry level program at Springs Dance and are accepted for additional training are considered part of the "Leadership" team at the academy.

We charge our leadership team with responsibility to guard the positive culture that we've built at Springs Dance. Team members wear the word "leadership" on their uniform and are expected to demonstrate the leadership principles in their behavior on and off the floor and to be an example newer students.

Those who most successfully demonstrate the principles in their individual practice are given opportunities to further develop their skill through assistant teaching and other leadership development experiences.
