“Imitate, assimilate and innovate are the rules we instill in our students. We start everything by mimicking. It’s how we learn to do anything! Assimilation happens when we’ve spent so much time mimicking the body movements, ideas, and techniques that we’ve learned practiced over and over again become internalized. We can call on them and reproduce them easily. This is when you can start to Innovate.” Our Founder – Isaac Ergas
