Our Story
First, we want to say thank you to everyone who has supported us since we started this in 2021, and went live at our first location in 2022. Thanks to your support, we have become one of the first winners of the Top-Rated Award in 2023 from Great Nonprofits!
We are humbled by the kindness so many have shown us! Thank you, and we will continue to be fiscally responsible while making dance more accessible and more affordable for kids and teens! Now... on with our story!
New Concept Dance Company is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that was established in 2021 with three goals in mind:
1.) to give access to the full dance experience, without affordability being the biggest obstacle;
2.) to give choices that allow our students to advance their skills without missing other activities that set them up for success after high school;
3.) to give older teens and adults a chance to take classes that are suited to them, and fits their budget and schedule.
Our middle and high school students accelerate their skills in dance with our program, and can still play sports, participate in musicals, plays, wind ensemble and marching band, robotics club, school council, and other academic and social clubs.
Our high school students can still take AP courses and pass with high marks, all while keeping dance in their life. And, all our students have the option to compete in dance, too, if they wish.
​
We also know that success, regardless of industry, comes from hard work, education, experience, some failure, and many milestones along the way. We can provide a clear and realistic path, with attainable goals, for students who seek a career in dance.
We are your local nonprofit! We give options to each community we serve, without asking for large sacrifices in return, and we make these experiences affordable and accessible!
​
​
Our Misson
Our mission is to give options to kids and teens who want to experience all that dance has to offer while they are in school preparing for their future. We provide scholarships for our supplementary classes and discounts on tuition, intensives, costumes, private lessons, and other ancillary experiences.
We also offer high school students between the ages of 16-18 volunteer opportunities to gain knowledge and experience in areas of business and community leadership.
​
Lastly, we are dedicated to providing older teens and adults in each community we serve a chance to take classes that are suited to them, their schedule and their budget. If you would like more information on these drop-in classes, click/tap here.
How We Do It
We are a mobile dance program that can reach dancers at different locations. Our classes are designed for the students we teach, and range from beginner to advanced levels. Our students feel confident as they learn, and are trained at the pace that is best for them while receiving individual coaching to maximize their potential.
We also offer monthly drop-in classes to adults at a discounted rate during non-holiday months. We want everyone to start dancing, or come back to it!
