Growing Oaks is a faith-based dance academy offering performance-based dance instruction tailored for girls, teens, and women. We focus on liturgical dance, supported by classical ballet principles and inspired by contemporary and lyrical movement.

Our mission is to nurture faith, confidence, and artistry in girls, teens, and women through dance. We use movement to glorify God, grow in Christ, and share the gospel with our community.

Growing Oaks is more than a traditional dance studio. We don’t offer standalone technique classes or follow a typical studio schedule. Instead, we create a faith-centered experience where dancers develop their movement skills through worship and choreography, with an emphasis on creating and sharing dance performances that communicate a message of faith with our community.

No, Growing Oaks isn’t affiliated with any specific church or denomination. We are united in the belief that salvation comes through Jesus Christ alone. Our goal is to complement—not replace—the local church by supporting dancers in their faith journey outside of church. We encourage everyone to be part of a local church community.

Growing Oaks currently offers liturgical dance—using movement as a form of worship and storytelling—supported by foundational ballet principles, contemporary, and lyrical styles.

Our programs are designed for girls, teens, and women no experience required

Not at all! Growing Oaks welcomes students of all experience levels. Our goal is to meet each student where they are and help them grow in their technical ability, confidence, and identity in Christ.

No, auditions are not required. We welcome dancers with all levels of experience and are committed to creating a supportive, non-competitive environment where every student can grow.

Prayer and devotional time are an intentional part of the Growing Oaks experience and reflect the faith-centered heart of our academy. Students are welcome to participate and engage at their own comfort level. Our desire is to create a space where the christian faith can be nurtured alongside the development of confidence and artistry through dance.
