Destined 2 Dance Studio and Performing Arts is a non-profit organization founded by Rachel Jackson and Aderemi (Remi) Rucker on November 1, 2003. In April of 1994, Rachel Jackson and Remi Rucker formed the praise dance team that is now known as Pirouettes of Praise, which ministers through liturgical dance and focuses on bringing glory to God while allowing their bodies to be used by God to minister to others. The school was established from a Christian perspective and is committed to promoting and preserving the arts while educating through dance. Its stated purpose is to bring inspiration and light as well as structure and discipline to the surrounding community in a fun and jovial manner. The program states that dancing builds self-esteem on and off the stage and that it equips students with practical skills such as presentation, posture, poise, and improvisation. Destined 2 Dance Studio is dedicated to ensuring that the children, youth, and adults of the Bay Area have a positive environment to learn various styles of dance, including ballet, jazz, praise dance, modern, and hip-hop. The organization states that it does not discriminate on the basis of economic status, height, weight, gender, race, national origin, creed, veteran status, sexual orientation, disability, or age, and that it seeks to present equal opportunities for all individuals interested in learning the art and discipline of dance.
