​​GWDC is dedicated to helping each dancer realize their fullest potential in a caring and nurturing environment. GWDC dancers are trained in a uniquely American curriculum. They learn by combining the logic and precision of ballet and the dynamism of ​​contemporary dance nurturing the individual's creative, social, intellectual & spiritual development.​
