“I wholeheartedly recommend this studio for dancers of all ages! As an adult/beginner dancer, I wanted to take serious ballet classes, and that is exactly what I got. The classes were organized, on-task, and not watered down. Très bien.”

Amber

"Laurence's class is the highlight of my week. It brings guaranteed joy! The combination of her fun choreographies and beautiful leadership create a real sense of community and connectedness."

Shannon

"I love, love, love, dancing in Diana's ballet classes.  I started 13 years ago with Diana, and her enthusiasm and passion for ballet are still as bright as ever! She brings to the dance floor classical technique along with creativity for fun and challenging classes. Diana is warm and welcoming and accommodates all levels and abilities of participants. Dance till your heart sings!"

Tanya Ryan

“Taking ballet with Diana and contemporary with Laurence has been such a joy. When I first started, I didn’t know how much my strength and technique would improve, but I’ve already come so far. I’ve gained so much more confidence in my movement and in myself. What I love most though is how fun the classes are! Diana and Laurence make every session feel like a mix of challenge and play, and I’m constantly excited to keep learning and growing with them.”

Darrian

“It is a privilege moving with Laurence – the layers of curated choices offered us in real time. The music. The pacing. The variety. The challenges. Her earnest and ever-reaching pedagogy dilates ninety minutes with heaps of love, leaps and laughter. Vive, indeed!”

“Laurence is a talented and incredible teacher. She always respects my learning rhythm and is always encouraging me. Dancing and learning contemporary dance by her side has been a true gift in my life.”

Catherine

“Diana’s ballet classes are beautifully crafted and truly inspiring. She brings a deep knowledge of classical ballet and demonstrates each movement with impressive precision. Her passion and professionalism shine through in every class as she clearly explains, encourages, and uplifts each dancer in their journey.”

Laurence

“ The creative dance kids program has benefited my daughter immensely. Not only does she love it, but she has gained confidence, leadership skills, and mind body awareness. We love Laurence’s intentionality in how and what she teaches. My daughter has many options for extra curricular activities, but dance will always be a priority for the wholistic benefits. The exposure to French Language in dance class is a bonus! We are so grateful Laurence has brought such a unique and valuable offering to our community!”

Elli

“Stéphanie’s yoga classes are warm, inclusive, and thoughtfully guided. She cares for all levels in the room, always offering posture variations. Her calm presence and deep meditations gently draw us into a grounding and enriching practice. As a beginner, I felt welcomed.”
