Mission Statement & Core Values

“We genuinely believe that Midlands Dance Theatre Centre is more than just a dance school. We’re a FAMILY, where UNITY is important. Every dancer is encouraged, challenged and inspired to achieve their individual POTENTIAL. Our aim is to develop their CONFIDENCE and always motivate them to do their best, through high quality teaching. Dance will teach your child more than just steps, big hearts shape young minds. We want them to create LEGACIES to last a lifetime.”
