SCA dance classes encourage creativity while emphasizing proper technique and terminology so students can become
strong, knowledgeable, and passionate dancers. Each student will learn steps in a progressive manner that will allow them
to focus on body placement, timing, fluidity, musicality, and expression. SCA dance instructors teach with a nurturing and
supportive attitude so students are able to learn in an environment conducive for growth and development.
