Indy Dance Academy is a great place to grow as a dancer in all aspects. Our daughter Lauren started dancing only 4 years ago and wanted to jump in full throttle.  The IDA directors, staff and instructors embraced and encouraged her to go for it. She immediately grew as a dancer with hard work and steady encouragement. The dance program at IDA also creates leaders, IDA encourages girls and boys alike to reach for their dreams and potential and they leave the door open to allow the dancer to grow at the pace they desire. In four short years Lauren was invited to be part of the Bachelor of Fine Arts Theatre and Dance program as a dance major at Ball State University thanks to the encouragement she received at IDA and the support of the  talented  instructors. She auditioned with a lot of very talented dancers and her encouragement, skills and growth at IDA paved her way.  Her comment after her auditions was that although there were instructors that were very hard on her at IDA, she owed them a big thank you for teaching her what she needed to know.  The joy as a parent is to watch your child grow and develop each year and most importantly see the joy in her heart as she dances.
