Discovery Dance is committed to activities and programs that are designed to develop greater appreciation of dance using an innovative dance style and the new ES dance technique (Excedele Saltatio, or “exceeding limitations in dancing”) in combination with ballet and contemporary dance, and to programs that extend dance to the disabled. The programs are planned to be appealing to new and experienced audiences alike through significantly increased expression and beauty. The development of this distinct technique and style is a major addition to the dance genre and has been enthusiastically appreciated by audiences.
