How did SONdance get started?
SONdance Christian Dance School grew out of Jolynda s desire to express her heart felt praise to God. In 1988 she started to share this idea with a few other women who had the same desire. Jolynda had experienced other ballet schools, but there was something missing. She wanted to protect the innocence of young people and maintain modest movements and dress. So she developed modest standards and ensured that the movements and dress would not be revealing or immodest. As this idea grew more and more, dancers discovered Jolynda s vision, which was and is to make His praises glorious… In the beginning Jolynda was the only teacher and classes were held in a shared portable trailer at New Hope Church. In order to ensure that there was quality as well as inspiration Jolynda enrolled in the Cecchetti Council of America (CCA) Organization. This is an internationally recognized Ballet Method. Now with a 6th level CCA certification and the Inspiration of God, Jolynda is the director of SONdanc
