An environment that does not discriminate against age, sex, race, religion or disability. To embrace each persons character and help mold and create their image through discipline and technique training; an image all their own to utilize in the world of performing arts and beyond. "A teacher's purpose is not to create students in their own image but to develop students who can create their own image." ~ unknown |
