HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL III

TEEN BALLROOM

Research conducted by several of America’s leading universities including Columbia, Harvard, Standford and UCLA, reveal that children exposed to drama, music and dance may do a better job at mastering reading, writing and math than those who focus solely on academics.

Whether it’s an adult tap workout, music lessons or dance classes, the Magdalena Ecke Family YMCA is seeking to engage members in appreciating the arts as a means of building spirit, mind and body.
