As an accredited school of higher education, research center, and cultural arts institution, we have been educating artists, movement observers, teachers, and coaches for forty years.

 

We understand that people are the real wealth of nations, at the center of social, political, and economic development. We make people aware that movement is every human being’s first and foundational language and work towards making moving experience and understanding as each person's life force.
