Dear parents, guardians and dancers,
Thank you for your interest in The Dance Factory Performance Companies. The Dance Factory Performance Companies are unique to Eugene as we offer young dancers technical training in either jazz and or hip-hop while building basic fundamental skills that can easily transfer into any genre of dance. We also provide an opportunity to perform in the community and to compete at regional dance competitions in the Portland Metro area.
Here at The Dance Factory we pride ourselves in being disciplined as teachers and as dancers. We look for dancers who are serious about dance and taking it to the next level. We love dance and want to share it with dancers who are eager to learn more and explore their full potential. Dance develops balance, control, posture, focus and fine-tunes listening skills. Because dance inherently involves problem solving, patterns and sequencing, it enhances higher thinking abilities. Quality training in dance and technique promotes self-confidence, creativity and a sense of exuberance in accomplishment. The Dance Factory and its instructors are committed to developing all of these attributes in a nurturing environment.
