The Power of Dance

What is so incredible about the dancers in the senior troupe from WADPA is that they receive a tremendous amount of support and instruction from their dance teachers. Anyone familiar with the performing arts industry can attest to the fact that it is typically competitive and cut-throat. Oftentimes the pressure even harms the emotional and mental well-being of students.

WADPA differs from the rest of the industry through their belief in creating a supportive and safe environment for their students. With this mindset, WADPA instructors foster a family-like atmosphere in their academy. Moreover, the dance instructors focus on teaching self-expression, musicality, rhythm, fitness, and coordination to ensure that their students are well-rounded.

The Epic Performance

The senior dance troupe practiced "Hallelujah" for months before performing it live. After watching the video, anyone can definitely see that their efforts didn't go to waste!

Nailing each move effortlessly and looking happy throughout the entire performance, the girls almost certainly received a well-deserved standing ovation as they finished.

The troupe's modern dance was a perfect fit for Cohen's song. As the dancers' talent alone was enough to leave the audience in goosebumps, the choice of song made the performance even more moving.
