ABOUT CROSSINGS

Our Mandate

Crossings is committed to providing a creative home for young (and mature) bodies, minds and spirits where faculty seeks to make an art of the natural joy of movement found in each person. Our continual goal is to give a rich experience of dance to all students, and to provide the professional training required by those who wish to pursue careers as performers , choreographers, and teachers.

Our Guiding Principle

We believe that faith-expressed dance is the bodily contemplation of the goodness of God and should be accessible to all people regardless of age or ability. With this in mind we seek to develop the whole dancer, stressing technical strength while embracing the importance of the spiritual and artistic elements of the art form. Although not all students will pursue a career in dance, we believe that a healthy understanding of the body as a gift from God and sound training contribute valuable skills and experience, which can be applied to every aspect of life.

Our History

Crossings Dance Ministries has offered training in dance as a faith-expressed art form since 1992. Founded and directed by Karen Sudds, Crossings offers classes for students ages 3 to adult. All classes are taught by a faculty of expert, caring and dedicated instructors who value a tradition of excellence.
