WHAT WE OFFER
Dance, as an expression of oneself, can be seen in children even before they can walk. As they move their body to the beat of music they can be seen grinning from ear to ear displaying the joy they are feeling at that moment. Dance tells a story through the art of movement, without any words needing to be communicated. Dance can make you laugh, it can make you cry, it allows one to express themselves through the flow of movement.
Dance District is a vibrant dance studio for girls and boys for ages three and up offering dance instruction from qualified, experienced, recognized dance professionals. Our goal is to ensure all students achieve their maximum potential while creating life long memories and strong bonds of friendship along the way. We want our students to feel inspired through dance and to gain a strong sense of self-confidence, self-respect and discipline through professional instruction and team work.
Through dance, children learn the importance of being on a team and working closely with others. When dancing in a group, children learn the fundamentals of “sharing the stage” and more importantly the significance of how important it is to build trust and reliability with fellow team members. When on a team children learn not only through instruction but as well through the observation of peers and fellow dancers.
We realize that behind every dancer is a supportive, committed family, and we strongly believe in open communication and frequent updates to ensure families are informed of their dancer’s progress and upcoming events.
WHY DANCE?
Children naturally want to be physically active and on the move. Their bodies tell them what they need, but unfortunately, they are not always able to get active. Being active on a daily basis allows children and teenagers to become fit and healthy so that they feel good and can also call upon their energy reserves for whatever they may need it for. Children need at the very least an hour a day of moderate exercise which leaves them breathless. This won’t come from walking at an everyday pace, but can be provided through a 60 minute dance class.
WE’RE PROUD OF OUR FACILITIES
Our newly renovated space is located on the North-East corner of Fourth Line and North Service Road. Our facility offers three naturally lit, spacious, climate-controlled dance studios.
