Our family began home educating in 1994. All 3 children have studied dance over
the years and have background in everything from Ballet, Ballroom, Hip Hop, to Swing, and Tap.
Our program was developed as a way to help other young people catch the excitement.
Our events are not simply "Proms", but rather a series of dance classes desiged to prepare students to be comfortable
and well prepared in all social settings. Our activities cover everything from which fork to use at a formal dinner to the
many different styles of dance. Additionally, every class includes a Bible based devotional designed to encourage and inspire
participants to "go for God's best" in every area of their lives.
