Standard, Artistic /Executive Director, Divine Dance Institute’sgoal has been to provide a broad spectrum of dance education, preparing servants for the continually evolving choreographic/technical arenas in the movement ministerial art of dance,
all within a nurturing and professional environment. Divine Dance Institute (DDI) is the culmination of years of hard work and a firm belief in dance as

a positive force that not just titillates the senses, but touches the heart. Seamlessly integrating the mission minded, message driven movement with technical development, the school has been developing new programs while maintaining its original premise of integrity and quality without compromising the spiritual and physical standards. DDI has been established as a foundational basis for those who are earnest about fulfilling thier divine purpose in life and who want to become better

It is also the home of a several developing companies and artists to include; SoundXPressed Dance Company, PowerDanz Project and a pre-professional contemporary outreach dance ensemble. We develop dynamic instruments to play a positive role in making harmonious music in the hearts of all who encounter their expressions through movement. It is the fulfillment of DDI’s vision to impart knowledge, and be a source of inspiration for those who want to make an impact in the community through dance.
