Our Full Year Program honors the rigour of dance training by offering a 10-month program where our professional instructors, specialized in teaching dance for adults, progressively support students: to gain confidence; to build technique; to build community with a class cohort; and (in the performance classes) to create a unique choreography for our flagship June show. From pure beginner to advanced, the dancer/student will experience an evolution in their dancing, their sense of embodiment and discover a new sense of a community that moves more rather than it talks!
Level 1 — Beginner
Level 2 — Intermediate
Level 3 — Advanced
Open — All welcome
