What You’ll Learn
Welcome to Media Arts! This is a creative space where we explore storytelling through video, photography, sound, and design — starting with a first project where you'll use your phone and CapCut to introduce yourself while learning the basics of filmmaking. I can't wait to see what you create!
Program Overview
As a student in our program, you will receive foundational training in the following dance styles
Ballet – Focus on alignment, posture, strength, and classical technique
Modern – Lester Horton Technique rooted in anatomical correctness

Dance Wear/Uniforms
To maintain a focused and professional learning environment, all dancers are required to wear a plain black top and plain black bottoms to every dance class.
