419 50 Street Edson, AB, Canada

WE'VE GOT BIG NEWS! We are FINALLY ready to unveil our new studio name and logo, as well as announcing the winners of our "Name the Studio" contest! We'll be posting at 8 am Friday!

LOOKING FOR DANCE INSTRUCTORS We are looking for some new dance instructors to join our dance family for the 2021-22 dance season! If you know of anyone who may be interested, get them to send us an email at [email protected]

WE ARE MOVING! (again!) We have loved our time at our Indominus Sports location, but it's time for a change! We won't be moving until summer, but if you know of anyone looking for a great studio space, let us know! We'd love to help Indominus find some new renters for this fantastic space.

It's official, Miss Claire is moving! We wanted to take a moment to thank Miss Claire for all her hard work and dedication over the past few years, she has been an incredible addition to our Edson Recreational Dance family! Join us in wishing Miss Claire good luck on her new life adventures!

STUDENT TEACHER SPOTLIGHT: Miss Charity Dance experience: Charity has been dancing since the age of 4. This was her 11th year of dance. This is Charity's 3rd year dancing recreationally; all previous years she had danced competitively Favorite dance style: Tap Favorite dance memory: Charity's favorite dance memory is of doing a windmill dance sequence in a competitive tap routine. They had no music, just the percussion of the shoes. It was very intricate and involved 5 levels... of tap dancers and over 50 dancers. They received platinum at competition for that performance. Miss Charity assisted with our Lil Beatz class this year. Thank you so much for all your hard work!

That’s a wrap on our Christmas concert recording! Our behind the scenes photographer was much better today (because it wasn’t Miss Amy!) Thank you SO MUCH to all our dance families for showing up and making this last minute endeavour so amazing. We can’t wait to show you all the final product!

Some behind the scenes shots of the first night of recital videos! Parents and students, thank you SO MUCH for rearranging your lives so we can get this done!

The studio is decorated just in time for COSTUME WEEK!! (Which is basically like getting to open your presents early) Parents, please make sure your child tries on their costume to make sure it fits, and then put it in a safe spot-we use the same costumes all year long!

Both Tiny Tots and Tap Level 1 classes for November 3 have been cancelled for tonight and RESCHEDULED due to parent teacher interviews/instructor illness. The new class date is November 21-we will be in touch with a schedule closer to the date. Thanks so much for understanding!

ADULT DANCERS Due to the craziness of both school start up and dance start up, we will not be offering any adult programs (adult tap, adult jazz, Dance Pl3y, and stretch and conditioning) until October. This is to give us time to adjust to our new schedule and protocols, as well as to make sure we are offering the best programming we can. Thank you for understanding!

Our first ever fitness camp was absolutely amazing! Many thanks to the talented instructors who made this event possible. Bungee fitness, aerial yoga, and barre are all classes available in the community for the fall, and Pilates, adult Dancepl3y and stretch and strength are all programs we’ll hopefully be seeing soon! Thanks to all those who participated!

Those winners are: Amy Pillage (Drew) Erika Fairweather (Savannah) Congratulations, $25 will be credited to your Dance Studio Pro Account!
