Leighton Dance Project states that it was created from the idea that a dance studio can be a second home, and that students learn to dance and grow as artists in an environment where they feel safe, confident, supported, and loved. The studio states that it values Love, Dedication, and Passion (LDP) above all and brings these values into classes, performances, events, community outreach, birthday parties, and more. The program notes extra support resources such as Thrive Guides, Confidence Coaching, Class Moms, and an Intern Program, and offers options to book a trial class, text “Trial” to (916) 597-1236 to book a trial class, join a mailing list, and shop studio swag.
Community involvement includes community outreach and performances at parades, tree lightings, and local events, including the Veterans Day Parade, Tree Lighting Ceremonies, and the Folsom Family Expo. Crew dancers represent Leighton Dance Project at regional competitions and conventions tailored to their level, and Company dancers have performance opportunities across multiple styles through the Company Concert Series, which features separate concerts for Ballet, Tap, Hip Hop, and Contemporary, as well as projects like Taking Flight and Musicality in Motion.
