Leica Hardy School of Dance Information

Founded in 2002, the Leica Hardy School of Dance has quickly been recognized as a centre of excellence in dance education. The philosophy of the school is to provide everyone - young to adult, recreational student or aspiring young dancer - with the highest quality of dance instruction in a friendly and constructive environment. Offering creative movement, ballet, jazz and modern dance instruction, class sizes are limited to assure that students receive individualized care and attention. The General School program offers introductory and recreational classes for students of all ages. Those wishing a more in-depth experience will progress to the Intensive Training and Pre-Professional Training Programs. KiDanCo, our pre-professional company for young dance artists, gives the aspiring dancer valuable exposure to the works of professional choreographers and the demands of the professional career in dance. The syllabus and examinations of the Society of Russian Ballet forms the core of our multi-disciplinary approach to dance training. The carefully developed curriculum ensures successful, healthy technical and artistic progression at every level. In all classes students are encouraged to attain the highest degree of success that they can reach and to become self-motivated, confident individuals. See the Programs page for more information.
