Our Mission


Forte’s mission is to provide world-class baton twirling instruction based in dance to young athletes in a positive atmosphere, while fostering teamwork, self-confidence and grit.

Forte's Values and Vision

As a team, we sat down and came up with values that we strive for inside and outside of the studio. These values are as follows:
 
At Forte we…
  • work hard (in it to win it).
  • have fun. 
  • act professionally.
  • trust the process and each other.
  • give our full effort in everything we do.
  • are family.
