MISSION
"I believe in merging the wild with the formal. The wild is your inborn potential before labels, limits and fears. The formal is disciplined, technical training. When the two are fused, a singular greatness is born."
- Suzana Stankovic,
dance-theatre artist; dance educator; owner, WHPAS
Wild Heart Performing Arts Studio is a boutique studio founded by dance-theatre artist and dance educator Suzana Stankovic in 2017 as a home for her signature method of transformative, world-class dance training, live performance, and artist empowerment.
Drenched in sunlight and positive energy, Wild Heart Performing Arts Studio celebrates the wild potential within each of us as dancers, artists and human beings.
Wild Heart was born of a pioneering spirit and unwavering integrity. Each class is a master class in blooming wildly.
STAY WILD.
