ABOUT US
Dance Design has been established for over 25 years. Founded and ran by Jenni Nolan Owens. Renowned in the dance community, our school is celebrated for providing a secure and inviting haven where children not only learn the art of dance but also find the freedom to express themselves. We take pride in nurturing young performers, fostering both their artistic growth and personal development in a supportive environment.
At Dance Design School of Performing Arts, we believe that the dance Studio is more than just a place to learn to dance – it's a platform for building confidence, self-expression, and a strong sense of self. We're passionate about helping kids discover their inner strengths and shine both on and off the dance floor.
How Dance Boosts Confidence:
🌟 Positive Self-Image: Through dance, kids learn to embrace their bodies and appreciate what they can do, fostering a positive self-image that radiates confidence.
🌟 Skill Mastery: As dancers perfect routines and techniques, they experience the satisfaction of mastering new skills, boosting their belief in their abilities.
🌟 Performance Opportunities: Taking the stage in front of an audience teaches kids to manage nerves, showcase their hard work, and feel the thrill of their achievements.
🌟 Supportive Environment: Our dance community is a safe space where kids are encouraged and celebrated for their progress, nurturing their belief in themselves.
Our Approach to Confidence-Building:
🌟 Inclusive Learning: We create a supportive atmosphere where every child's journey is valued, fostering a sense of belonging and boosting their self-esteem.
🌟 Personal Growth: Through challenges and successes, kids learn that growth happens outside their comfort zone, enhancing their confidence to tackle new experiences.
🌟 Positive Encouragement: Our experienced teachers offer constructive feedback, helping kids refine their skills while ensuring they always feel encouraged and empowered.
Confident Dancers, Confident Individuals:
Dance is not just about the steps; it's about the life lessons gained through dedication, perseverance, and self-discovery. As kids grow in their dance journey, they carry the confidence they've built with them into various aspects of their lives.
