Institute of Dance Artistry (IDA) is pleased to announce the 12th Anniversary of the Generations Dance Concert. Developed in 2005 by IDA owner/director Jamie Lipskin, IDA’s Generations Dance Concert brings together professional Philadelphia-based dance companies, independent Philly artists, IDA faculty, and the IDA Repertory Companies to perform annually for a cause that is near and dear to IDA. 100% of all money generated from tickets sales is donated to the benefiting charities.
The Generations dance concert series has raised over $50,000 for organizations including Pediatric Brain Tumor Consortium, Katie’s Kids for the Cure, CHOP, Breast Cancer Research Foundation, Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, Be The Match, Ronald McDonald House, Crohn’s & Colitis Foundation of America and the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society.
Generations is more than a dance concert. It teaches young, budding artists and dancers that they can dance and perform for a greater good. It also brings new, innovative, artistic, and entertaining choreography to the community creating an excitement and appreciation for the art of dance.
All money from tickets sales go directly to the charities. IDA students and teachers working together hold a bake sale at the show which raises additional money for the charity.

IDA, located in the Philadelphia suburbs, is a school of modern, ballet, pointe, jazz, tap, lyrical, and hip-hop dance. Devoted to the philosophy that dance is an art, not a competitive sport, IDA provides the ideal dance education for all its students. Students with professional aspirations can make a smooth transition into the college and professional dance worlds. Students who dance as a fun hobby can do so in a positive, supportive, non-competitive environment. The studio’s mission is to teach dance as an art form and to give back to the community through dance. We accomplish that goal throughout the year with performances and fundraisers to support many charities.
Students of IDA are given the tools to develop strong dance technique, artistic ability, self-confidence, and passion for the art of dance. The individual and unique talents and abilities of all are embraced and encouraged.
