Our Mission Statement
South Valley Creative Dance believes each child is unique and therefore they are valued for their own individuality, creativity and discoveries. South Valley Creative Dance is a safe place for children to discover their own inherent potential.
Creative and Modern Dance
Creative Dance connects the mind, body and spirit. Through movement which is natural to the body, such as skipping, galloping, turning- children are allowed to make choices, problem solve and evaluate. It is an active form of learning. Through patterns, shapes, rhythm and repetition, a child’s education is enhanced and they truly become part of the dance. Modern dance classes for older children include technique, improvisation and composition. Creative and modern dance is a “performance art”, not a competitive sport.
Quality Instruction
All of our instructors have Bachelors and/or Masters Degrees in dance as well as a variety of professional experience. We are privileged to have teachers who have performed as members of Repertory Dance Theatre, Ririe Woodbury Dance Company and Brigham Young University faculty.

Performances
South Valley Creative Dance presents an annual spring concert to share the gift of dance with family, friends and any who wish to attend. All classes participate in the spring concert. Traditionally, South Valley Creative Dance chooses a children’s book to use as a theme for the performance. Such well known works as The Very Quiet Cricket by Eric Carle and On The Day You Were Born by Debra Frasier are just a small sample of the caliber of literature selected for this performance.
Company
South Valley Creative Dance is pleased to offer a children’s company class for ages 8 to 15. There is no try-out for this company class. Rather, enrollment is based on the dancer’s desire to further learn about choreography methods and performance. The company focuses on individual and guest choreography and allows additional performance opportunities for these choreographies. Membership in the company is in addition to the dancer’s individual age group class, thus requiring attendance twice per week.
