WELCOME TO MERIDIAN STARS DANCE!!!!
We are so excited for this upcoming 2009-2010 dance year! We have many exciting changes and programs coming your way! Thank you for taking the time to check us out!
At STARS, we believing in helping children to develop important life skills through a quality dance program. Numerous research studies have shown that children that participate in dance receive higher grades, are more disciplined, have a higher sense of self-respect, self-esteem and self-confidence. They also learn that "a job worth doing, is worth doing well". Activities like dance have also shown to help at-risk students gain the skills and dedication they need to prevent them from dropping out or becoming involved in crime and drugs.
At STARS we expand upon these skills and take the time to teach goal-setting, teamwork, commitment, community involvement, nutrition and more! Our instructors have lots of experience and receive on-going training in the lastest techniques to improve dance skilland injury prevention.
