She later moved to Dance Alberta where she expanded her knowledge and added lyrical, contemporary and musical theatre to her training.

How do I choose a class?

- Confirms students are enrolled in the right program

What do I wear to class?
Please wear tight fitting athletic clothing – bodysuit or tank/crop top and shorts or leggings. No clothing with zippers, buttons or velcro please. Hair must be neatly tied back. Only stud earrings are allowed.
Does everyone participate in a recital?
No. Most of our students will not participate in our year end recital as our tech classes (Acro and Aerial) do not have a choreography component. We will have a Show and Tell class at the end of the year for parents to see everything you’ve learned!
