Aytunç Bentürk Dance Academy operates under the names of FFDC (Footsteps Form & Dance Center) between 1998-2006 under the names of ABDA (Aytunç Bentürk Dance Academy) between 2006-2016 and continues to do useful works for our country in the branches of Dance, Sports, Music and Art.

Our school has always been more than a Dance school with its social activities and social responsibility projects. Aytunç Bentürk Dance Academy may be the name of a person, but before the name it is a big family with a big heart and a clean one, and all the decisions to be taken in this family are made by members of this family, so it is referred to as the ABDA FAMILY. In this school, no name comes before the ABDA FAMILY.

Best regards - Aytunç Bentürk
