VISION & BELIEFS

Our Aims

As a community of Christian dancers and movers, we seek to impact the world together with the life of Jesus, experiencing and expressing this through Spirit-inspired dance and movement.


We aim to:

  • Honour and Represent God: Reflecting God’s nature through beauty, movement, diversity, and community, recognizing His communication through creation, action, and the Word.
  • Serve the Church: Bringing freedom, healing, and joy through worship, prayer, exercise, and community-based movement.
  • Engage the World: Sharing the good news through culturally relevant, creative, and non-verbal expressions, and using dance as a bridge between the church and the wider world.

Our focus is on bringing beauty, meaning, healing, and fitness to all, with the threefold aims to CONNECT, LEARN, and GROW.
