Hidden Benefits of Velocity: Resilience

When it comes to resilience, the dictionary defines it in two ways: 1) the power or ability to return to the original form, position, etc., after being bent, compressed, or stretched; elasticity. 2) the ability to recover readily from illness, depression, adversity, or the like; buoyancy.

At Velocity, we explain resilience as a combination of both definitions. We like to think of it as the ability of a dancer to bounce back after being …

Hidden Benefits of Velocity: Commitment

Making a commitment and sticking to it is a lesson that seems pretty easy to learn, but isn’t always so.  It can be a challenge—especially for young dancers—to navigate a big responsibility like that!  One of the most valuable life lessons our Velocity team dancers learn is following through on their commitments.

Hidden Benefits of Dance Team: Artistry

Of all the benefits your child gains as a dance team dancer, artistry is arguably the one that becomes most personal to them. In Velocity, we aim to teach the style and finesse that give performances their polish … but the true nature of being an artist comes from within the dancers themselves.

Hidden Benefits of Velocity: Teamwork

Learning how to be a part of a team—how to lead, how to follow, how to support, how to communicate—is at the heart of everything our dance team dancers do.  We know that teamwork is a skill our competition students will benefit from for their whole lives, whether they choose to pursue dance long-term or not.

While all of our Velocity students develop their teamwork skills in class, it is our competition dancers who “level up” that experie…

Hidden Benefits of Velocity: Sportsmanship

Nearly everyone is familiar with the Golden Rule, the principle of treating others the same way you want to be treated. At Velocity, we believe that good sportsmanship for our competition team dancers begins first and foremost with this principle. But it doesn’t stop there!

Our team students are learning to expand upon good sportsmanship both at the studio and at performances as part of the Velocity culture. Tapping into this deeper …
