About the Recreational Program

  • Designed for students ages 21/2 & up, the recreational program is an exciting & rewarding way to learn dance as well as great way to keep fit and meet new friends

  • Students in the recreational program gain confidence, self-esteem, technique, coordination, musicality, creativity, social skills, and discipline

  • Classes are taught in a fun & supportive environment by certified instructors

  • Regular attendance, a positive attitude, enthusiasm, and being a team player are key components to learning and progression.

  • Students will be placed in a level that is best suited to their abilities & goals

  • Each class will perform a routine choreographed by their instructor with music & costumes in our annual year-end recital.  We encourage all of our students to participate in the annual year-end recital so they can present their routines in front of a live audience to further their dance skills, confidence and self-esteem.

  • We currently offer recreational classes in Acro, Ballet, Hip Hop, Jazz, and Tap

  • Class levels are split into Pre-School (ages 21/2-4), Beginner (ages 5-8), Pre-Teen (ages 9-12), and Teen (13+).  NOTE: Class levels are subject to being combined and/or cancelled based on student enrolment and/or instructor availability.
