Our Mission
Progressive Dance Education. Community Values. Studio Feel.
Innovation Arts Connection, LLC partners with local park districts and community centers to provide progressive, community-based dance programs with a studio feel. We provide dance instruction to students of all ages, levels, and abilities. Our unique curriculum focuses on core techniques and concepts needed to build a strong artist, and stresses the importance of positive attitude, diversity, leadership and hard work. Our educators have an extensive background in dance and education. Our curriculum is consistent at each location, but our schedule and events are designed to serve each individual community.
In our classes, students will develop grace, rhythm, coordination, creativity, and confidence. Innovation Arts Connection provides a fun, safe, inclusive and structured environment and is designed to equip each student with the proper attitude and experience to excel in their future endeavors in the arts, school, and life. We focus on meeting the needs of the communities we serve by structuring our programs to honor family values, philanthropy and acceptance. In our community, all are welcome! We work to make sure all of our dancers and their families feel like they are part of a second home.
Our NEW virtual classes bring everything you love about IAC to the safety and comfort of your home!
We look forward to seeing you in class!
