Annex Dance Academy Business Feature

 

The Annex Dance Academy is a professional dance studio in the beautiful city of Oakville. The Annex Dance Academy is celebrating their 10th anniversary!   Children build knowledge and skills through continuous and evolving processes of instruction. Our program for our youngest dancers is organized in this evolving form allowing for children to actively build new learning and understanding. We work at keeping class interesting by utilizing music, props and storytelling. We sing and dance songs that children already know and love while learning new songs to perform for one another. In addition to Dance technique, we work on social and emotional goals, such as the feeling of accomplishment and pride a young dancer gets when mastering new or challenging technique. We guide our young dancers with life skills such as waiting a turn in class or partnering in song and dance. The inclusion of these fundamental skills has a beneficial impact on the experience of our students both in the Dance studio and outside in everyday life. Above all, we aim to nurture and fulfill your young dancer’s development and joy in activity.     We offer a wide range of classes for children. Please take a look around our website, where you will find information about our classes, summer camps, staff and location. At the Annex Dance Academy, we have gone to great lengths to create a totally unique space for our clientele, with five studios, which together measure 6,000 square feet, a comfortable reception area and a private change room. There is parking available immediately outside our front door in our parking lot. We invite you to come and visit our studio! Annex Dance Academy presents...

The Dance Exchange featured on Oakville Moms

The Dance Exchange offers a wide variety of classes for students ages 3 years to adult. Our focus is to give your child a safe, fun introduction and advancement into the world of dance. Our staff is compassionate, creative and always courteous to both you and your child. We offer two large lobby viewing windows and encourage our parents to stay and watch their child's development.
We watch our dancers bloom from rambunctious children to confident teens, engaged in life. Through dance, they learn time management, balance and focus; skills which trickle into every area of their life and development. In fact, most of our dancers are on the honour roll.

Our greatest achievement doesn’t lie in the trophies awarded to our competitive teams (although we are so proud of them), but in the smiles as our dancers arrive to each class. It lies in seeing our past students bringing their own children to class.

Our method works. We create a “home away from home” in our studio; where older children mentor the younger ones, leading by example. The little ones have role models…ideals, heroes to which they can aspire.

We have fostered a safe environment for kids to grow and express themselves. We teach them that participation in the arts is different from organized sport. While the development of team skills is hugely valuable, performance art has its own set of skills and personal values that cannot be learned anywhere else.

It is a pure expression of joy!
