At EPICENTER - Arts + Entertainment, we pride ourselves on our ability to strike an interpersonal connection with each and every student! After all, we are all humans. Humans with an innate desire to feel comfortable, welcomed, safe, challenged and accomplished. We are so grateful for our diverse faculty, teachers who bring their own experience, skill and understanding of dance directly to you - packaged and delivered in a unique and fun way that we are sure you will love! What style is it that you want to explore or maybe master? You name it, we are sure to have a teacher that is well versed in guiding you through the necessary steps to help you learn it! We love our students, and we can’t wait to get to share our gift with you!
WE ARE SKILLED
We are also students of dance. Our teachers have focussed for many years on honing in on their particular dance style(s), we take our work seriously. We bring years and years of experience and knowledge learned from the Community and Industry and pass it on to you!
WE ARE CREDIBLE
Collectively, we represent a name you can trust. Boogiezone is a well known brand that is revered in the global dance community and beyond! We have trained several generations of amazing talent who have gone on to work with your top music artists like Rihanna, Janet Jackson, Rihanna, Justin and more!
WE UNDERSTAND
We understand that not every student of dance learns the same or at the same pace as the next person. Ultimately, we are patient and are also experts in figuring out the best approach to teaching you in a way that makes sense for you! Remember, we are also students of this art - and every day, our goal is to also better than the teacher we were the day before.
WE ARE CREATIVE
No one wants to learn typical, boring steps structured in a predictable way. At Boogiezone we encourage our teachers to be innovative and allow them to push their limits. We do not like boxes, and you will be able to get a sense for this the moment you step into our classrooms.
