Mission

THE ASPIRE PROJECT PROVIDES QUALITY DANCE CLASSES FOR ALL CHILDREN WHO ARE GENUINELY INTERESTED IN THE ARTS. THE INTENT IS TO REACH ECONOMICALLY AT-RISK STUDENTS WHOSE FAMILIES/SCHOOLS CANNOT PROVIDE SUCH OPPORTUNITIES. WE ACCOMPLISH THIS THROUGH NON-TUITION BASED AFTER-SCHOOL PROGRAMS IN PARTNERSHIP WITH THE SUN COMMUNITY SCHOOLS & CLASSES AND SUMMER CAMPS OFFERED ON A SLIDING SCALE AT OUR STUDIO. ADULT DANCE AND FITNESS CLASSES ARE ALSO OFFERED ALONG WITH MATH TUTORING AND COMPUTER LABS FOR YOUTH.
