The dance world (along with the rest of the world) recently mourned the loss of one of our greatest inspirations, Michael Jackson. He has mesmerised us for years with his unique, sometimes seemingly impossible, movement. Coming up is a rare opportunity to see his genius in action. This Is It, a behind-the-scenes look at MJ as he prepared for what were to be his farewell concerts in London, hits movie theaters for a limited two-week engagement this October 28th. Tickets are already on sale and available at Fandango and MovieTickets.com. With ticket presales in record-breaking amounts around the globe, I suggest you get yours soon. (I already have mine!)
"And my goal in life is to give the world what I was lucky to receive: the ecstasy of divine union through my music and my dance."
- Michael Jackson

Welcome
Welcome back dancers, parents, and teachers!
It is the start of another year at IDA (Institute of Dance Artistry). This past year was a wonderful success and we look forward to making this next one even better. We are excited to welcome some new teachers to our IDA family (welcome Kate and Tara)!
We are also thrilled to introduce, for the first time ever (drum roll and dramatic lighting) The Official Blog for Institute of Dance Artistry! Throughout the year this will be a great place to read about some of the happenings at IDA. Stay tuned for our "Teacher Feature," a closer look at our favorite dance teachers, alerts to dance events of interest in our community, the inside scoop on performances by our very own IDA Repertory and Hip Hop Companys (Shout out to the newly formed IDA Lafayette Hill Repertory Company), and basically all things IDA!
I wouldn't be doing my job as the official blogger of the official blog of IDA if I didn't fill you, my readers, in on some gossip. So, here goes... Be on the lookout for a brand new line of IDAwear. I hear it is totally cute and should be here by the holidays!
So, let's all strap on some dancing shoes and have fun!
