beginners to barre work, basic adage and light allegro
and corner combinations. No formal experience is
required. Ballet I/II and Ballet II are ideal for dancers
with some knowledge and understanding of basic
ballet principles. These classes include a longer, more
intricate barre and centre. A live pianist will be in class

Eastern belly dance. Layered with sultry sensual moves,
fused with bits of cabaret, burlesque and modern

spine, hips, thighs and arms and increase co-ordination
and flexibility.
Ballroom I / Ballroom II
Contemporary dance is a style that emerged in the
20th century as an outgrowth of modern dance.
Unlike traditional dance styles, contemporary dance
is not associated with specific dance techniques,
instead dancers attempt to explore the natural energy
and emotions of their bodies to produce dances
that are often very personal. Contemporary II builds
on the techniques learned in Level I by using more
challenging exercises and more complex choreography.
Get ready for weddings, corporate parties or those
romantic evenings with Ballroom I and your newly
acquired skills in the popular dances of waltz, tango,
foxtrot, jive and cha-cha. Ballroom II builds on skills
learned in Level I with more intricate steps. Partners are

of classical ballet, yoga and deep stretching are used to
sculpt and define muscle tone. Great for all levels and
abilities. No prior knowledge of ballet necessary.
Ballet Repertoire
Learn combinations from great romantic, classical and
neo-classical ballets. A short barre warm up is followed by
a breakdown of choreography from Petipa, Bournonville
and Balanchine. An excellent addition for those with
intermediate level training. Recorded music or live pianist

Belly Dance I / Belly Dance II
Belly dancing is based on the isolation of group
muscles and will draw on full-body movement. Based

that have experienced belly dancing and would like to
continue progressing at a more advanced level.

Hip Hop II builds on the techniques learned in Level
I, using more challenging exercises and more complex
choreography.
Ballroom Waltz
This course is designed for those who have a basic
knowledge of social dance and are ready to take on
more challenging aspects. International style calls for
dances to flow around the floor and introduces dancers
to more advanced technique and style. This follows
the pre-bronze/bronze syllabus for the cha-cha, waltz
and jive, including the more advanced steps. This
introduction course will be taught by Mandy Epprecht,
former Canadian Professional finalist and World
Professional Championship representative.

lead and follow, a good understanding of timing
and the ability to execute simple salsa sequences.
Salsa II introduces new steps, and turn patterns will
be introduced and linked together to develop new
combinations. Partners are preferred, but not required.
Street Jazz
Street jazz is the most raw form of jazz, blending
jazz and hip hop together for an intense workout.
This unique style of dance is taken from the
classical elements of jazz, but placed in the modern
environment. This class blends pirouettes with “pop
and lock” moves for a totally modern effect.
Latin Nightclub
Characterized by swivelling hips and a sinuous rib
cage, Latin music creates a sexy, energetic rhythm with
beats and accents meant for those pulse-stopping dips
and turns. Suzette Risto of Twylite Studios will teach
you basics in salsa, merengue and cha-cha. These
dances are enjoyed in most nightclubs, not just in
North America, but all around the world. Partners are

Capoeira
Capoeira is a vibrant Afro-Brazilian art form developed
in the 17th century by African slaves and their
descendants. It is unlike any other martial art, in
that it is “played” (rather than fought) in a circle,
to the accompaniment of live instruments, singing
and clapping. Capoeira’s dance-like movements are
beautiful to watch, as they are based on achieving
harmony with one’s partner in a safe but challenging
way. Capoeira teaches grace, agility, flexibility, strength

relationship with others.

evolved into a soft, slow, gentle form of exercise that
can be practiced by people of all ages. Tai chi offers a
balanced drill to the muscles and joints by means of
precise actions, which are regulated with the timing
of deep breathing. The benefits of practicing Tai chi

such as invisible editing versus disjunctive editing, this
workshop further explores the psychology of editing and
how it can be used to affect and even control viewers’
reactions. Through screenings and discussions led by a
professional editor, this class explores how editing can
guide an audience through a story, imposing the desired
thoughts and feelings, whatever the genre: fiction,
documentary, short film, music video or experimental.

Post-production planning is one of the most vital, yet
overlooked, aspects of filmmaking. This class includes
how to name files, where to store media and how to best
organize clips on your timeline, especially with regard

This class introduces industry methods to organize and
simplify the production planning process: conceiving
and organizing a shot list to get the best coverage
of your script, breaking your script down, creating a
production board to organize the shoot efficiently, and
scheduling the beast.

looking at the styles and techniques of eminent portrait
photographers. In looking at various photographers’
work, the class will consider their relationships with and
approaches to their models/subjects, lighting equipment
and techniques used, and how the images produced
form unique and recognizable bodies of work.
Fine Art Photography
This class explores what makes fine art photography
different from commercial photography, travel
photography and photojournalism. The goal is to help
students develop their fine art photography styles. The
class will quickly move from reviewing examples to
creating and discussing images. The class will begin by
considering the special case of colour photography. How
is colour photography different from black and white
photography? How does an awareness of colour help
photographers to see their subjects differently?
Pinhole Photography
This hands-on course will teach the basic principles of
photography: light refraction, camera optics and basic
darkroom procedure for developing prints. Participants
will build the cameras and then make photographs.
Due to the nature of pinhole photography, the time for
exposures will be long and therefore limited by time and
resources––only one photograph at a time––so students
must choose carefully.

of theatrical production into a cohesive and engaging
whole. Explore elements of set, costume, lighting and
sound design. Glean helpful staging tips, timeless

Win that job; book that gig. Harness the nerves
surrounding that next big audition. Everything from
headshots to resumes; cover letters to costuming;
monologues to call backs. This class tackles all of the
tools you’ll need to succeed at your next big audition.
Improv – Introduction to the 5 Skills
This introductory improv class will hone skills in
areas that are key to good improv. Led by academic
and experienced improviser Julian Frid, students will
practice exercises to enrich listening (words, inflection,
body language), leading to better reactions and a
stronger appreciation of different values and points of
view. After these exercises, students will participate in
scene work and enjoy each others’ creativity.
Improv Level 2 – Long Form Games and
Structure
This Level 2 improv class will explore scene work and
strengthen existing improv skills. A review of some of
the tools of improv will then lead to scene work: how
14
to sustain a scene through game and character, editing
techniques between scenes, techniques to narrate and
host, and how to best recognize and transfer a game
from scene to scene.
The Organics of Acting for the Camera –
An Introduction
This class will include a variety of acting exercises and
improvisation work to help guide students in staying
present and connected, working from the heart with
truth and vulnerability and staying in the moment. The
process explored will focus on breath, sub-textual and
visual stimulation, character psychology, focus and the
energy exchange and dynamics of working with other
actors. The issue of actor image and casting will also
be addressed. This class is designed for actors new to
working in front of the camera.
Art of Acting – Finding Personal Liberation
and Authenticity
This class is designed as an introduction for those new
to the arts, and will present techniques of improvisation
and other acting exercises to allow students to focus
on remaining truthful and honest within the work while
using an organic approach that is from the heart.
