VISION
OUR VISION
Our vision is to create a world where everyone can access the magic of dance. We have witnessed first hand how dance can build character, confidence and friendships. This beautiful, enriching sport is an incredible tool to teach body awareness, self-discipline and teamwork. Through our service of teaching dance, we strive to provide exceptional coaching and leadership to our students. While striving to instill the importance of etiquette and manners, we also focus on good self-esteem and positive body image.

At Bayside Dance, our mission is to foster a life-long love of dance. We aim to help pre-schoolers, kids, teens and adults find self-expression and enjoyment through dance classes every week. When teaching any style or age group, we strive to provide exceptional leadership to our students, building talent and developing life skills such as discipline and respect. Our combination of a nurturing environment, strong technical training and creativity sees our students grow not just in the dance studio but as human beings.
