Sophia became a little ballerina at the age of 3. When she first joined Strictly Dance, she was terrified, yet so excited to be set free. This was her first experience spreading her wings into this world as an independent little dancer. Today, she has a beautiful calming stride as she holds her head up high with confidence and independence. Not only has Strictly Dance and their amazing staff supported my daughter as she grows gracefully as an individual but it has also taught me as a mother; Praise your children, and they will blossom. Words of great wisdom that has stuck with me since the first day I walked into that studio. Thank you to the amazing staff, parents and dancers for their continuous support as my little girl strives for the stars.

My daughter has been attending Strictly Dance for the past 6 years. It’s not just the dancing that keeps us coming back: the family atmosphere that Mrs. Julia maintains is reassuring and genuine, as is the positive female role model culture that young girls need these days. As always we look forward to the entertaining recitals full of talent each June!

I started at Strictly Dance when I was 10 or 11 years old – I just took one jazz class to try it out and was absolutely hooked after my first year! The teachers are so supportive and kind and are devoted to help kids learn while having fun! I stayed on with Strictly Dance until I was 18 at the end of high school (I needed to stop when I moved away for University but would have stayed enrolled in classes if I could have). I am still in contact with all my teachers and they continue to support me into adulthood. If you’re looking for a fun way to stay healthy and active I highly recommend Strictly Dance.

Strictly Dance IS the best place to dance! I danced with Julia(the owner) for over 15 years! It is not just a dance studio it’s one big family! Not only has dancing there shaped me as a dancer, it’s shaped me as a person too. They always go above and beyond to make you feel welcome!!!

“As we are finishing up our third year at Strictly Dance, two of them being on the part-time competitive team, I would like to say thank you to the amazing teachers. My daughter is 6 years old and it is very difficult to get her to leave the studio once she is there. In a very short time, her teachers at Strictly Dance have helped her come out of her shell. I myself have learned so much about my own child through watching her dance. She was very shy when we started, but I now see a hard-working, determined, confident little girl that clearly loves dancing. The older students are also amazing! They are so helpful with the little ones and help out in any way they can. Thank you again to the teachers at Strictly Dance for believing in a little girl and helping her be the best she can be!”

I have been a competitive dancer at Strictly Dance for so many years, I can’t even remember when I first started. There are many ways to describe Strictly Dance, but there aren’t enough words to properly give it justice. The way I usually describe the studio is a home and a family away from my own. A lot of my childhood was spent here, growing alongside the rest of my team. The one thing I can say for sure is that no matter the day, I can come here to feel safe. The teachers are more then accommodating and welcoming to everyone who steps in the door. They’ve given me so much support and advice over the years and I can’t thank them enough. The people that I’ve met here are especially amazing. My dance friends, I know I’ll have for life. I know that wherever I got after high school, I’ll still have a home at Strictly Dance.

Our Son has been dancing at Strictly Dance for the past three years and we are very pleased with the quality of teaching our son has received. The dance teachers bring out the passion he has for dance while developing proper technique, instilling discipline, while knowing the importance of making it fun.

In addition to providing a high calibre of dance education, Strictly Dance is a family friendly studio and we love how fun the staff are. Our son has grown under there care, he loves dancing and has gained tremendous confidence in performing on stage. The performances are greatly choreographed and are a joy for me and my family to watch.

If you want your children to learn and love dance, then Strictly dance is the perfect studio for you and your family.
