Founded in 2005, North Carolina Arts in Action (NC AIA) is a 501 (c) (3) non-profit organization dedicated to transforming the lives of children through participation in the arts. As an affiliate of the National Dance Institute (NDI), NC AIA uses the award-winning teaching methodologies developed by NDI founder Jacques d’Amboise to inspire children to develop discipline, self-confidence and a sense of achievement, reaching a high standard of excellence and love of the performing arts.
NC AIA believes in nurturing the whole child by setting the highest standards of excellence and engaging children in dance activities that challenge their minds, strengthen their bodies and nurture their self-esteem. NC AIA in-school performance residencies provide a level playing field for ALL children to succeed!
