Benefits of Dance

Did You Know...…That many colleges offer dance scholarships?

Students who take dance lessons consistently each session, year after year, can gain just as much skill as competitive dancers.  

I attended a dance school like Main Street Dance Works in my elementary, middle and high school years and was able to get my Bachelors in Dance in college and obtain a North Carolina teaching license in dance for grades K-12.  I was even named outstanding senior in my department.

If you do want to consider dancing into college, I recommend taking lessons now at a school with a director who was trained in how to teach dance (like ours!).  Students who start at a young age have an advantage over those who start later.

Dance is great exercise, it’s great for emotional well-being and helps students find friends to connect with who like the things they like.  Performing can be a great confidence builder.
