At The Dance Corner the health and safety of students is our number one priority. All staff undergo a criminal background check and must complete 5 or more hours of training in safety and mental and physical wellness for students with Youth Protection Advocates in Dance. The Dance Corner is the first dance studio on the shoreline to be YPAD certified. As part of our commitment to health and safety all of our staff is also First Aid, CPR and AED certified.
The Dance Corner is home to industry professionals who are ready to share their knowledge with your dancer. Our talented instructors are committed to providing a welcoming, creative space for dancers of all levels. We take pride in our incredible instructors and are excited to teach every dance student.
Our dance instructors are lifelong learners who continue to educate themselves through certification programs, teacher-training schools, conferences, and other learning opportunities. It is our objective to inspire a passion for the art of dance in every child who passes through our doors. In the process, our dance instructors strive to set the right example and help your child create memories that will last a lifetime.
