Dance

School-Year Dance Program
An Academy-style program that is based on internationally recognized teaching systems. Our students will receive a high level of technique that can be transferred to other established schools or dance companies around the world. Schools that recognize the systems include The National Ballet School of Canada and The Royal Winnipeg Ballet School. The program ends with a year end recital which takes place in May at the Gateway Theatre.

After both invitational and open audition calls, youth are invited to participate in classes that are geared towards public performances that showcase the dancers. These performances are rehearsed and staged following a similar pattern to what an individual might expect in a professional experience.
Our general seasonal courses include ballet, jazz, latin funk, belly dancing and much more.
