one, along with accentuating performance and presentation. Theory is embedded through out both semesters and includes the study of anatomy, injury care and prevention, nutrition, history, analysis and critique. Also, essential skills such as leadership, discipline, creativity and cooperation are emphasized so that each student’s unique God given gifts can be neutered and developed. 

          This 4-year program is designed to help students acquire the necessary skills to peruse a successful transition to life after high school. Whether it is post-secondary education in dance, dance as a profession, teaching/choreography or any of the many careers related to dance, students will build the necessary skills to feel confident in whatever avenue they persue. In addition to this, students will develop an appreciation for their Catholic faith though the dance class. This is achieved by infusing learning with processional dance repertoire and composing dance pieces based on Catholic scripture and themes. As well as emboding the Catholic Social Teachings and Beatitudes through dance.
