VIBE’s mission is to further students’ performing arts education and development through knowledge, technique and the expectation of excellence. Mr. Soja wants the kids to acquire the same passion for music that he had when he was a student.

Mr. Soja notes “Competition allows kids to push themselves to be the best they can be, they learn the value of hard work and of winning and losing” VIBE achieves this mission through the creation of competitive, entertaining and high quality performances in a positive, nurturing and team-oriented environment.
