An Idea Is Born
An Idea Is Born
After teaching and dancing for over 20 years, in 2018, Artistic Director Mrs. Farrah Cortez decided to open Alma Dance Academy of NJ, LLC. Her expertise in TV/ Film, Commercial dance, Print, Stage and private dance instruction prompted the idea of Alma, which means Passion / Soul in Spanish. This is what created ADA, the passion and soul of dance for all dance students.
