The mission of the Youth Dance Ensemble is to enrich the residents of the south metro area by providing an environment of dance training & performance with emphasis on artistic, technical, & creative content. Programming for all learners will stimulate & nurture creative thinking & positive self-image. We will inspire to understand & appreciate dance in its many forms, to preserve & promote the art of ballet & related cultural traditions.
