'Welcome to Canmore Dance Corps!
I'm very proud to be the owner of this community dance studio
that has been infecting Bow Valley residents with a highly contagious dance virus for over 15 years!
We have a great team of qualified, energetic and inspiring instructors 
who are committed to sharing their knowledge and passion with students
of all ages and sizes in a multitude of styles.
Dance is a fantastic way to stay fit and healthy; physically and mentally.
It inspires us to unleash our creativity and imagination and helps in the development of important life-skills
such as confidence, commitment and responsibility. 
It is also a great way to meet people and make new friends so come and dance with us! '
