With the mission of inspiring children through the arts, Art In Motion (AIM) uses dance and music to help all children develop high standards, discipline, and a belief in themselves that will carry over into all aspects of their lives.
All of our In-School classes are totally free of charge to the students. Our After School classes are offered on a sliding scale basis.
Our AIM programs are joyful, rigorous, and intellectually engaging.
