“

Three generations of my family have been a part of this beautiful community. Not only did we all learn to dance, we learnt about kin-ship, respect and inclusivity. Working hard and rewarding effort. Less expensive than any other school in the area, this school teaches the highest standard of dance, performance skill and comradery. Over 69 years of teaching excellence speaks for itself.
