Our Mission<\/strong><\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

To Promote the Japanese parapara dance style as well as the fun-loving, electronic music it accompanies and to embrace all parapara enthusiasts regardless of skill level.<\/p>\n

Our Approach<\/strong><\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

EKS-D strives to promote parapara with a casual, socially-focused approach.  After all, what is a hobby if it isn\u2019t fun?  We encourage noncritical, self-paced learning and improvement, and remain supportive of our members both on the dance floor and off.  Rather than being a results-driven machine, we aim to remain a network of friends joined by a common love of the dance.<\/p>\n
