Dance Fusion Studios’ Story
Dance Fusion Studios opened in 2006 and is proud to continue providing fun dance classes in a safe and welcoming environment to youth and adults. Beginning with just one studio and two teachers, Dance Fusion Studios has grown into a large family of teachers and students – and into a bigger space.
We began the studio because we saw how much it was needed - we knew that every body deserved to find a dance family that respected them, welcomed them, and taught them at every level. A lot of our dancers (and teachers!) have felt like outsiders in their previous dance experience, and we wanted to give everyone a space to belong.
We were the first dance studio to offer drop-in adult classes in Ottawa, understanding that adults have busy lives with work, family, and vacations, and can’t be expected to pay for a full semester of dance if they can’t attend all the time. We will run our drop-in classes even if you’re the only one there! We also have the most comprehensive adult programme, from complete beginners to advanced – you don’t ever have to dance with the kids.
We believe strongly that non-competitive but high-quality instruction is the best form of teaching. Our kids - and adults - benefit from performance opportunities and dance exams. We teach people how to dance, not just dance steps!
