Dance Lessons
Increasingly with more urbanization, we have seen the importance of dance in our lives diminish due to different factors. Sit-in entertainment (computer based, movies, etc.), travel, internet, work – all have led to more time commitment leaving dance to mainly unformatted discotheque and losing the technique and beauty in dance, as well as giving rise to a host of health problems. It is on this note that In Motion Dance Studio has been created to re-capture the allure and discipline of dance in our society through Ballroom, Latin, Ballet, Modern and African contemporary and Hip-hop dances.
Certification and Affiliation
In Motion is affiliated to several International prestigious dance schools and companies in the United Kingdom and the USA such as: Helene Krippner Akademie based in Germany, Nyakka extended circles, Tabu flo, Soul Rebels Switzerland. We have a strict syllabus for every level of dancing that are beginners, intermediate and advanced levels per dance style.
Instructors
In Motion’s team of instructors is composed by local and international dancers. Most of them have been trained voluntarily by Karim Mukwano, the Head Instructor, since they have joined the studio.
Instructors are rigorous and professional during their lessons, though the atmosphere is always friendly, light and joyful; and it is a real pleasure to come and learn with them.

Curriculum Activity
In order to adapt to an official school curriculum, we have created a unique syllabus to teach and assess the students every term. Qualified instructors could either come to teach at your school each week or we could organize the classes at our studio. We are flexible on the terms and conditions of such a partnership.
Our main aim is the growth of a common passion in the lives of these young people who are in the process of building their identities.
Extra Curriculum Activity
Over the years we have developed many indoor classes such as Latin dances, Ballroom, African and Modern Contemporary dance, Hip Hop, Ballet, etc. We teach both kids (from 3 years old) and adults and hold both private and group classes.
Today we have a new aspiration. We deeply wish to see dance blossoming in the stressful world which surrounds people of all ages. We would like to develop a strong and reliable partnership with schools in Kampala. We would like dance to be part of the students’ life and we would like to offer them this great opportunity to feel better in their minds and bodies, to gain confidence and to artistically express themselves. We strongly believe that dance would improve their self-esteem and interaction with their peer group.
Holiday Camps
During each local and iternational holiday, the studio is organizing intensive sessions for the kids who want to discover or deepen their dance skills. In the morning hours, the dance floor is especially reserved for students from 5 to 17 years old and different dances are offered by our professional instructors: salsa, ballet, hip hop, contemporary… A very nice way to spice up their holiday!
