The Vision We envision the House of Dance as one of the leading and most prominent jazz dance schools within the country while at the same time offering a wide range of quality training in dance genres such as ballet, contemporary dance, street and break dances, Hula, Polynesian dances and tutorials in international folk dances, not to mention choreography services. We also hope to establish and/or promote a professional team of dancers, the House of Dance Company, as the official performing team of the House of Dance in various dance-related fora. It further aspires to be a training ground for the next generation of dance educators. The Mission The House of Dance intends principally to promote a life-long love for dance as well as an appreciation for the performing arts. It primarily aims to develop the skills and talents of children, teens, adults and even senior citizens in the areas of jazz dance, ballet, contemporary dance, street dance, break dance and other dance forms for professional, recreational and social purposes at affordable costs. It hopes to accomplish these by: Providing training in areas and disciplines related to dance and dance performances. By sponsoring workshops related to all forms of dance and dance performances utilizing local and international dance experts as resources. Supplying performance opportunities such as recitals and other programs for students to showcase their progress in dance training. Extending scholarships to financially displaced but highly deserving individuals. The Goals In the long run, the House of Dance hopes to establish a name in the national and international world of dance. The House of Dance is one of the contact institutions in the Philippines of the International Dance Organization (IDO). It is a member of UNESCO'S Conseil International De La Danse (CID; International Dance Council). It is also a registered member of the Singapore ArtsFest Club and of the Association of Ballet Academies of the Philippines (ABAP). It also envisions to participate in dance festivals around the world that aim to promote intercultural understandaning through dance. In the short run, it dreams of growing and expanding its services in areas within the country where communities view dance training as a welcome and productive activity that both the young and the elderly can enjoy. It hopes to attain this by establishing branches in areas where most needed.
