Dance is Essential for Young Athletes

Dance is more than a pastime. Dance is more than messing around with music. Dance is an art. It requires an increasing effort at balance and agility. It can be an escape when some need it most. It is one of the most powerful ways to express emotions when words can be lost in everyday life. With fall sports coming to an end, now is a pivotal time to think about enrolling in dance. Indianola Dance Academy offers not only experience but a welcoming environment for students of all ages and ability.

Fall Sports are ending…but your kiddo’s movement and agility doesn’t need to pause.

Now is the time of year when soccer, football, volleyball, softball or fall baseball seasons end. You still need your athlete to be active, fit and maybe even improve their flexibility. Indianola Dance Academy is the place for them to learn a new skill in Indianola or from the surrounding communities. At IDA we offer tap, baton, jazz, pre-pointe, ballet, pom and lyrical for beginners and experienced dancers. Our studio focuses on not just the art of dance, but helping you mold dancers into kind humans.

We have limited availability in most of our classes, they don’t need experience…that’s what we are for. Just a few benefits of dance for athletes and non athletes alike are:

  • Release endorphins & stress while increasing positive emotions with movement
  • Sculpt their body with every movement, improving strength and flexibility
  • Sharpen cognitive skills while memorizing positions, vocabulary and rhythms
  • Recharge their body and soul with mindful, energetic movement and stretches
  • Improve body image by understanding our limits and working to increase abilities

At Indianola Dance Academy, we strive to work with every student, regardless of experience or ability. We aim to create a cohesive environment. We have a zero bullying policy. We encourage our students to be supportive classmates. We want to be the dance home for families through their dance career.

Some new items coming to the studio soon will be adult, couple and Baby and Me classes coming soon too. Please watch our social media for details to be released. Our monthly clinics start this month on October 25th with our Young Witches Spell Party. It is open for ages 4-9, with activities, Hocus Pocus, snacks and even the bounce house. Registration is limited and open through this week. If you have a friend whose child has expressed interest, share our information. Your word of mouth helps our business grow. It also increases opportunities for your dancer.
