Short message from Leanka:
"My passion is to teach young dancers the principles of dance to help them achieve their full potential".
Growing up in a dance studio creates so much more than just a healthy lifestyle and activity. There are traditions, history, personal values, and self-worth that will remain with them for a lifetime.
Young dancers will begin to develop balance, coordination, and simple dance technique.
When you practice dance, you will notice an improvement in poise, grace, alignment and coordination, as well as a better understanding of rhythm, an improvement in your memory, increased self-esteem and a greater appreciation of music!
