Translation from the original Spanish: “De una manera sencilla y dinámica de explicar, April, a través de sus estudios, nos enseña que es mucho más fácil aprender algo nuevo cuando se hace con diversión. Cuando sales de una de sus clases, ya no eres la misma persona; ¡solo tienes que empezar a aplicar lo que has aprendido!”

⭐"We homeschooled for several reasons, so when my neurodivergent daughter told me that this was the best class she had ever been a part of, my heart was incredibly thankful for Miss April.

⭐ "Our 4 y/o had a wonderful time in this class! We have been wanting him to warm up to talking about feelings and to movement, and this was the perfect combination.

⭐ "Yesterday I finally attended April's dance workshop after my curiosity got the best of me. I was mind-blown by the beautiful choreography she created, inspired by group dynamics!

Why is it the Secret Dance Technique?

The “secret” lies in what makes this program truly unique. It’s not about performing or preparing for a show—every class is designed to devote time to intentionally teach life skills, including confidence, creativity, emotional intelligence, resilience, memory, and growth mindset, and then put them into practice through fun, interactive dance activities.

Unlike typical dance classes, the “technique” isn’t something you can see in a mirror. Research shows that skills like emotional intelligence, resilience, creativity, and growth mindset are critical for success in school, work, and life, yet they are rarely explicitly taught in traditional classrooms or extracurricular programs. Learning these skills through movement gives participants a “secret, unseen advantage” for thriving in a changing world.

How is it different than a normal dance class?

Unlike a typical dance class, this program intentionally teaches life skills first—skills like confidence, creativity, emotional intelligence, memory, and resilience—and then uses dance to practice them. It’s not about performance; it’s about learning through movement, having fun, and strengthening both mind and body (while still learning to dance!). No dance experience required-just be willing to move!

Grounded in research, every class delivers real, lasting life skills for a changing world-not just dance steps.

Who is it for?

No previous dance experience needed! These classes are for children, teens, and adults who want to build future-focused life skills in a fun and engaging way. Parents interested in alternative or holistic education will also appreciate the blend of movement, creativity, and personal development.

Students and parents have commented that they love the classes because they combine dance technique, physical activity and meaningful skill-building. Dance level is tailored to each class and participant—just bring your willingness to move, grow, and prepare for the challenges of tomorrow.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why This Program Exists

Success today—and tomorrow—relies on skills like confidence, creativity, emotional intelligence, memory, mindset, resilience, and more—skills often not intentionally taught in traditional classrooms and workplaces.

Now, with the world changing rapidly and the rise of AI transforming how we live and work, these skills are more essential than ever. Learning them through movement gives participants a “secret, unseen advantage” for thriving in a future that will demand adaptability, creativity, and emotional intelligence.

Research shows that playful, hands-on learning strengthens both mind and body, helping skills stick. Dance is particularly effective because it motivates people to keep coming back—its immersive, multisensory nature makes practicing life skills feel natural and enjoyable.
