ACTS MANILA at International Christian Academy

Acts Manila, based in International Christian Academy (ICA), is a youth performing ballet group with a vision of raising world-class dance artists who embody & inspire Godly character. Its mission is to transform society one dancer at a time. Its dancers spread the gospel through dance by performing in theatres, malls, churches, schools, outreach engagements and corporate functions. The dancers are trained using a Vaganova-based syllabus & modern ballet to cover techniques, along with Life 101 bible-based discipleship meetings to mold Christian character. Its core values: excellence, faith and social transformation.

Some of its graduates have moved on to the professional ballet stage both here and abroad. ICA is a member of the Association of Ballet Academies Philippines. It also won 5 awards at the first-ever national group ballet competition, the ABAP Cup, held in October 2008. ICA submits its ballet students to the Australian Conservatoire of Ballet international assessment exams every 2 years, garnering excellent grades. Its Artistic Director, Chelo B. Gemina, was conferred upon the prestigious title of Associate in 2009 by ballerina and ACB author, Christine Walsh, A.M. for maintaining high standards of training. Gemina produces recitals every year at the Cultural Center of the Philippines.

The school is open to non-ICA enrolled students the whole year round.
