In the wondrous, wild world of Michigan, there’s a group of extraordinary kids who do something completely magical - they dance! Now, Michigan isn't just any ordinary state, oh no, it's a magical land shaped like a mitten, where the lakes sparkle like sapphires and cherries grow as big as your fist. Imagine a place where you can touch the stars from the sand dunes and catch a snowflake on your tongue in the winter. That's Michigan! Now let's meet the Michigan Marvellous Moonwalkers, a team of dance-loving kids. They come from every corner of this magnificent mitten, from the lively streets of Detroit to the frosty Upper Peninsula. Each one of them is a splendidly special character indeed. There's Bouncy Benny who can boogie better than a kangaroo on hot sand. Twinkle-Toe Tina, whose tap dancing can outshine the brightest star in the sky. Spinster Sam, who can twirl faster than a tornado in a tea cup. And don't forget Jiggy Jill who can jive like a jellyfish on a rollercoaster. But the most famous of them all is Hip-Hop Harry, a mystical moose with moves smoother than a slithering snake. He's got antlers as wide as a school bus and a heart as big as Lake Superior. He's the one who teaches the Moonwalkers how to groove and move, flip and dip, with a rhythm that can shake the pines in the forests! So, as the sun sets over the Great Lakes, the Michigan Marvellous Moonwalkers come out to dance, their infectious laughter filling the air. Together, they make the Mitten State the most hopping, bopping, non-stopping place to be. And remember, if you ever pass through Michigan, don't forget your dancing shoes. You never know when Hip-Hop Harry might invite you to join the dance!

What began in a humble New York City apartment with just a single student, Spark, has since blossomed into an enriching program impacting thousands of children. Our unique educational approach combines the elements of art, yoga, meditation, and nature to create a holistic learning environment. This distinctive blend is what sets Spark apart, allowing us to reach and inspire a multitude of children in truly meaningful ways. With an array of offerings to accommodate various schedules and needs, Spark has something for everyone. Our services extend beyond the standard after school and weekend classes to include holiday and summer camps, birthday parties, portfolio preparation, private classes, and custom pods. We also welcome homeschool groups and are thrilled to announce the recent addition of a forest school program to our repertoire. You can find Spark on-site in various schools and at our main studio located in the Upper West Side. But we're not stopping there - we're also planning to expand to the Upper East Side and Brooklyn. For our families in Pennsylvania, we run the program from our family studio there. And if you're not in close proximity to any of our locations, don't worry. We offer in-home instruction and virtual options to ensure that Spark can reach you, no matter where you are. We invite you to explore all the ways you can experience Spark and look forward to helping bring our program to you.
