High Impact Dance Academy will have three locations starting fall 2007: High Impact Dance Academy Aberdeen, High Impact Dance Academy Lynnwood and High Impact Dance Academy Elma.   All are located in Washington State.   

Our philosophy towards dance education is to encourage a love of dance no matter what age, level, or style.    Dance, Dream, Believe...

HIGH IMPACT DANCE ACADEMY was established in September 2005.  HIGH IMPACT DANCE ACADEMY LYNNWOOD is a join together of ACT ONE DANCE which was established in July 1995, which was owned by Dayna Daneker-Sayler and HIGH STEP DANCE ACADEMY, LYNNWOOD which was established in September 2001, and owned by Sondra St. John.   Dayna Daneker-Sayler acquired ownership of High Impact Dance Academy Lynnwood.  HIGH IMPACT ABERDEEN was established in September 2006, which was originated by DANEKER DANCE which was established in 1968.   HIGH IMPACT DANCE ACADEMY ABERDEEN is a FAMILY TRADITION!  Now in September 2007 HIGH IMPACT DANCE ACADEMY ELMA will evolve.

Dayna Daneker-Sayler, owner and director of High Impact Dance Academy Lynnwood and Aberdeen and now Elma has been dancing all her life and teaching for 23 years. Through her years in dance, Dayna has studied with many great choreographers (Al Gilbert, Lane Alexander, Gus Giordano, Danny and Betty Hoctor, Scott Benson, and Roland Dupree to name a few) and has had many great opportunities while touring the United States with Dance Caravan and Dupree Dance Expo. Dayna now has students that have professional careers and a dancer touring with a summer dance tour.  Dayna has choregraphed many musicals, which include "Seussical The Musical", "Honk", and "Annie, Jr." amongst many others and has been a Master class teacher in the Seattle area.  Dayna loves to work with children of all ages and skill levels, but finds the preschoolers to be her specialty.  After owning a studio and teaching in the Seattle area, Dayna and her daughter Shaylyn are on top of the best education.

ACT ONE DANCE  has had the pleasures of performing in such great cities as Seattle, Las Vegas, Los Angeles, Phoenix, Chicago, and Florida, achieving many awards.  In 2001 ACT ONE DANCE was pleased to accept the great opportunity to perform in Disneyland, Anaheim, California and then had two dancers perform in the Capital One Bowl in Orlando, Florida January 1, 2005.  Now, HIGH IMPACT DANCE LYNNWOOD went to perform once again in Disneyland, November 2005 and HIGH IMPACT DANCE LYNNWOOD AND ABERDEEN performed in a parade at Disneyland in November 2006.  The next plan is to perform in Disneyland once again in February 2008.  HIGH IMPACT DANCE LYNNWOOD AND ABERDEEN continue to acheive many national awards, titles, and scholarships from the leading dance companies in the country.  

ACT ONE DANCE enjoyed giving back to its community by performing in local festivals, parades, nursing homes, and schools. ACT ONE DANCE was pleased to be the first in the area to perform “A NUTCRACKER ALL JAZZD UP” in 1999.  Now HIGH IMPACT DANCE will look forward to continuing to give back to it's community.  HIGH IMPACT DANCE ACADEMY ABERDEEN will be the first in Grays Harbor to perform "A NUTCRACKER ALL JAZZ'D UP" in December 2007!
