Dance Builds the Brain
Behind every plié, twirl, and leap is powerful brain development in motion!
Dance strengthens both sides of the brain — the left side organizes rhythm, timing, and pattern, while the right side fuels imagination, creativity, and expression. Together, they form neural bridges that support memory, focus, and problem-solving—skills essential for learning.
Through movement, dancers practice impulse control, adaptability, and attention—all while having fun. Dance doesn’t compete with academics… it prepares the mind for them!
Pom Camp Registration is OPEN!
Pom Camp is back for the holiday season!
Ages 4–11
October 24 – December 5 (no class November 28)
Performance at the Studio J Christmas Shows on December 6
