A note from Mrs. Coleman.......

Welcome back everyone to a new Dance Season.  We have been in touch with all pre-registered students.  For those of you who have not yet registered but would like to do so, I have included the Open House and Registration dates below.  Please come by and pay us a visit.

Sat.  Sept. 11:  9.00 a.m. - 12 noon 
 
In class, our focus is on quality instruction by certified teachers.  We encourage correct and safe technique, artistry, musicality whilst at the same time making the classes ENJOYABLE AND FUN.
 
This will be a busy year as we prepare for our production of "The Sleeping Beauty" and "Lights of Broadway".
 
This year Hayley Blyth is joining the staff.  Hayley who was originally a student at our School has now graduated with an advanced diploma in Musical Theatre from Sheridan College.  She will be teaching jazz, hip hop, tap and musical theatre courses.
 
We look forward to you joining us again this Season and we hope that you enjoy the remainder of the Summer which promises to be hot and sunny.
