Since its inception in 1997, Praise Theatre Ensemble & Arts Ministry ("PraiseTEAM") has grown from our original 9 dancers into a large company training over two hundred performers aged 5 years and older. For 17 years we have trained close to a thousand young people in different forms of dance whether it be ballet, hip hop, jazz, tap, contemporary or musical theatre, and have recently expanded by offering voice, music and acting lessons. Competitively, PraiseTEAM has won over 100 local and international awards, including podium finishes at Hip Hop International in Las Vegas.

We give our time and talent for worthy causes, and we involve ourselves in a number of outreach programs, charitable works, services in the parish, and local and international events. These include can drives, fundraising events, performing at local events and youth conferences, and raising funds to build the PraiseTEAM Learning Centre for underprivileged children in Nueva Ecija, Philippines. We ensure that our students get involved in good works and service.

We are part of the Youth Minstry of the Salesians of Don Bosco in the Our Lady of Good Counsel Church. The Salesians have supported our arts ministry in every way they can, particularly by making the space available for us to work in and nourishing us through their spiritual guidance. We are truly grateful for their generosity through the years, but we believe it is time for us to make room in the space which we were graciously given in order for us to keep growing and to continue our mission, and to allow a new family to be born into our community at Don Bosco Youth Center!
