About
Principal; Michelle Louise Vennix
Welcome to our dance community at Michelle L Vennix School of Dance and Yoga (MLV Dancers).
Through my school, I hope to share with students the true joy and unique moments of elation that both dance and yoga can offer. The discipline of dance teaches many qualities essential to life; artistic expression, musical appreciation, deportment, flexibility, strength, stamina, teamwork, commitment, confidence, self discipline, communication, an acute mind, and respect for others.
The ancient practice of yoga provides a philosophical journey of understanding bringing balance and health physically, emotionally, and mentally, allowing one to attain calm and tranquillity in the frantic pace of modern life.
I believe that each of us are unique inspiring individuals, no one of us is more or less important than the next and each of my students are treated with respect and as an equal contributing member of the school.
