Battle has also won many prestigious awards, such as Black Legislative Caucus Arts and Humanities Award, Harriet Wigfall Community Service Award, Elliot Norton Award, the League of Afro-American Women Award and many others. Besides traveling, the Art of Black Dance and Music also reaches audiences through school programs. Battle's program is geared not only toward African-Americans but open to all ethnicities. Everyone should be involved. To Battle, dance is important, like a way of life and meaning, in which she learns more every day.
Dance is a way for people to understand themselves.
Dance acts like a pyschologist and a psychiatrist.
