SCHOOL of DANCE PHILOSOPHY

The Ipswich Moving Company School of Dance offering classes and workshops throughout the year for children and adults. Movement and Expressive Arts Therapy and yoga are also part of the Studio offerings.  The Ipswich Moving Company School of Dance is in its tenth year under the direction of Jennifer Carlson.  The School offers instruction in ballet, modern dance, creative movement, and jazz styles.

In addition to ongoing classes, the School offers special workshops in Dance/Theatre, Aerial Dance, Yoga, Hip Hop, Contact Improvisation, and Meditation.  The Studio is a resource for rehearsal and workshop space for the Ipswich Moving Company and other regional dance and theatre artists.

At Ipswich Moving Company School of Dance we focus on creative process, the love of movement, and artistic expression. Students leave our school with a creative sense of themselves. They value the importance dance plays both in their lives and in the artistic community at large. We embrace the serious dance student as much as the recreational dance student in our non-competitive, nurturing environment, which makes dancers of any level feel comfortable in expressing themselves.

We hold the same philosophy for our ongoing Adult Classes Adult Dance classes. It's all about the love of movement and embracing artistic expression. Whether you are a professional dancer, or simply someone who is curious about dance and looking to try class for the first time, you will be surrounded by a very supportive community. All of our adult classes are ongoing and you can drop-in at anytime.
