Moving with Purpose: The Praise Dance Academy's Impact

Dance is more than movement—it is a universal language of expression, healing, and transformation. At Praise Dance Academy, we believe that dance is not only an art form but also a divine tool to inspire, uplift, and transform lives. Through creative expression, mentorship, and ministry, we are using dance to nurture talents, share God’s love, and build stronger communities.

About Us

We are a team of passionate young people committed to using the art of dance to inspire, uplift, and share God’s love with the world.

All of these are aimed at creating a positive impact in lives and communities.

Praise Dance Academy is a Christian dance organisation that functions both as a ministry and as a company.

As a ministry, our vision is to show forth the praises of God through dance and reach out with the Gospel expressed in movement and creativity.
As a company, our mission is to provide a positive environment for artistic engagement, talent discovery, and artistic excellence. We also participate actively in community development by using dance to address societal challenges and promote values of discipline, unity, and transformation.

In all, we are a ministry set apart to use dance as a tool for change—impacting the body of Christ and society at large.

We are also the organisers of The Gospel of Dance (G.O.D.), an annual event hosted in the city of Akure, Ondo State.

Impact of the Gospel of Dance

The Gospel of Dance has evolved into a dynamic platform for nurturing the creative, spiritual, and social development of children, teens, and youth. It provides safe spaces where young people can freely express their God-given potential through dance and other artistic expressions.

In today’s society, where many young people are easily drawn into negative habits, peer pressure, and destructive lifestyles, the Gospel of Dance presents a Godly alternative—an atmosphere where energy and creativity are channelled into purposeful and life-transforming activities.

It has become more than an art platform; it is a ministry of expression, mentorship, and holistic development.

Over the years, participants have:

Discovered their gifts and talents in dance and other creative arts.
Gained confidence and self-esteem by performing on stage and among their peers.
Built positive friendships and networks that uphold Godly values and accountability.
Received mentorship and teachings that strengthened their spiritual growth, discipline, and character.
Experienced holistic development through creativity, exposure to new opportunities, and positive engagement with society.

As a result, countless lives have been transformed. Young people who once struggled with low self-worth or lack of direction have found purpose, expression, and fulfilment.

The Gospel of Dance continues to raise leaders, win souls, and empower the next generation with values of discipline, creativity, and Godly excellence.
