Dance Impressions of Saint (St.) Michael, Minnesota is a premier, student centered and award winning performing arts organization that trains students in dance. Our goal is to develop the best in each individual performer through a combination of technical training, artistry and life lessons. Our philosophy is to inspire our students greatest potential using a developmentally appropriate curriculum combined with unique and creative professional opportunities.
Our dance program is based on the Royal Academy of Dance (RAD) syllabus with Vaganova and American influences. Our jazz, modern, lyrical and tap program is based on classic techniques with contemporary and world influences.
We have two educational tracks:
Recreation Company. This is our recreational/educational program for those who want solid dance training combined with flexibility and less commitment. Unlike most recreational programs, we offer more technical training in dance, with a holiday show and spring showcase performances.
Performance Company. This is our competitive program. It is designed for a higher lever of training in dance, with a wide variety of opportunities including workshops, competitions, holiday shows, and spring showcases.
Our education offerings also include individual and small group lessons, in and out of studio workshops, and excursions to premier performances. We offer additional open tech classes in ballet, jazz, and tap. Many of our teachers are certified and/or licensed or in certification programs. Our staff has long resumes, professional experience, awards and degrees in dance, music, acting, art etc. Our teachers strive to keep up with new information in the performing arts through workshops and continuing education certification programs.
Finally, in order to become a whole dancer, one must learn many life lessons such as respect, hard work, and honesty. These are a few of the principles that guide our program. Please read further or click on one of our tabs above to learn more about our amazing students, great studio and wonderful staff. Call for an appointment, or stop by during our business hours.
We know that once you experience the Dance Impressions difference, nothing will compare. We look forward to serving you. Thank you for considering us.
