weDANCE Academy

WeDANCE Academy offers high-quality private and group instruction in music, drama, and dance for all ages. We aim to equip Christian artists with technical skills and worship training, combining precision and passion with a godly focus to achieve the divine purpose behind the arts. Our mission is to #LoveGodLoveYouLovePeople, worship and glorify Him, and use the arts to bring God's love and salvation to the world around us. Because visual expression, like dance, powerfully communicates music (a valuable asset as we perform outreach ministry or worship), we also train students in many expressive forms, including Jazz and Ballet. Whether recognized and respected for their demonstration of form and grace or criticized for their baffling, abstract nature, the perceived uses of visual arts and their impact on the spectator do not undermine the fact that they strongly convey information. Visual arts are essential in capturing and transmitting the deep, unarticulated emotions that would be difficult or impossible to express using words. For example, Monet's Haystacks and Seurat's Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte effectively communicate their message to their audiences because of the artistic style, techniques, and styles used. Besides, visual arts also transmit messages that are unexpressed. However, it is effective to the people, depending on how they understand the messages encoded in the artistic pieces. At times, the messages are very complex, and it requires people to interrogate them thoroughly to understand them. The nature of visual arts also makes people have different perspectives, and their understanding is also different. Monet and Seurat's paintings interpret the same message but use different techniques, materials, and styles, and this affects how the audience understands the message (Nichols 134).
