This program provides an opportunity for all children to access dance to strengthen their bodies, mind, and spirit. After participating in recreational classes for two sessions, students are invited to join the competitive program, paying only the cost of entry fees for PG and Quesnel festivals, and a competition in the lower mainland. Dancers must take a lyrical class, technique class, conditioning class, and discipleship class. We offer several styles of dancing such as jazz, tap, hip hop, contemporary ballet, musical theatre, and song and dance.  The team meets Mon, Tues, and Wed after school.
