The mission of Wingman for Dance is to inspire dancers, regardless of age, level or skill to become helpful heroes that go above and beyond for each other. Wingman boosts children’s confidence and recognizes their unique strengths. Wingman will improve the overall vibe of your studio by creating an atmosphere of connection and belonging.
Our mission has been and always will be to promote "all that is good in dance education." Through our partnership with Wingman for Dance, we are able to further educate the dance community on the awesome power that the art of dance has as a tool for healing and confidence for young people through encouraging creativity, teamwork and self-expression. Wingman has designed an inspiring program to help our studio instill a renewed sense of joy and love in our students and aid you all in being more socially aware and responsible.
Winning Isn’t Everything

- Teamwork and growing in your skills is more important
- Effort, how well you performed and if you have grown as a dancer is more important
Include Everyone
- No matter what an individual’s abilities/age, make sure they feel involved and have a chance to shine
- Say hello to dancers you don’t know or don’t normally hang out with
- Be kind to parents/teachers in the lobby
Never Shut Someone Down
- Highlight individual strengths, compliment other dancers on their work
- Never pick on someone’s weaker areas
- Always be supportive of an individual’s creative efforts
Go Above and Beyond
- Don’t follow the pack, do what’s right and needed to help others
- Be the best dancer you can be, it adds to level of your team

Step Up and Take the Lead
