The Purposeof St. Martin Academy of Fine Arts is to share with each student a love and appreciation for dance and gymnastics. In addition to Dance & Gymnastics skills, students will learn to appreciate the "connection" between movement and music. They will be exposed to various aspects of dance study such as presentation, choreography, costuming, mentoring, conventions, competitions, etc. In gymnastics, they will train on professional equipment & work on agility, flexability, coordination & team work. In tumbling they will learn basic-advanced tricks & also work on flexability, agility, strength & coordination. Students may focus on different aspects depending on their development and interests.
The goal, in addition to providing the benefits of learning, self-discipline and physical skills, is to instill self-confidence in each child by developing their abilities to their fullest potential. Students are not compared to others, but are encouraged to be the best they can be. A sense of pride and accomplishment grows from discipline, practice, and hard work. Ultimately, students are able to demonstrate their accomplishments and to be recognized by the school, family and friends for their achievements.
