Bring your skills to the next level this summer!

Our DDA Dance Intensive is designed to celebrate our dancers’ commitment and dedication to dance.

Divided into three divisions (ages 8+): Junior, Intermediate, and Senior, dancers will be placed in the appropriate level based on the upcoming season. We also welcome motivated recreational students and outside registrations and will guide them through a brief consultation to ensure the best fit.**

Participants will be offered a comprehensive curriculum covering various dance styles including ballet, jazz, hip hop, lyrical, contemporary, and musical theatre, allowing dancers to deepen their understanding and proficiency in each discipline.

Each day will be filled with challenging and high-energy dance classes designed to push students to their limits and help them develop their technique, strength, flexibility, and artistry. We are currently finalizing the faculty lineup and are excited to bring you an exceptional team of instructors!

Highly recommended for competitive stream students, this Intensive is the perfect opportunity to elevate their dance skills and to keep their technique sharp over the summer.

Dancers will be ready to start the upcoming dance season with confidence, energy, and unforgettable memories with their dance peers!

Each day includes:
🎶 Technique, conditioning & choreography
💥 Turns, jumps & skill development
👯‍♀️ Teamwork & performance training
⭐ Strength, confidence & focus
✨ The ultimate way to finish summer strong and start the season ready! ✨
🔥 Train hard. Grow stronger. Dance smarter. 🔥
