West Perth Dance Club

 Hi my name is Ms.Trinity. I have been with WPDC for 5 years now and have now started teaching tap at SHDC. I was a competitive dancer for 11 years and danced in all styles including; tap, jazz, contemporary, ballet, musical theatre, acro and hip-hop. 

My favourite style of dance is tap and my favourite class to teach is also tap! Something I would tell the kids is to keep trying and to remember to never give up. 

Hi everyone I’m miss Kaya and I’m very excited to teach this year! I have been dancing since the day I was born, in competitive dance from the age of 5-17. I come from a versatile dance background with a strong focus in acro. I joined the Royal Canadian Navy when I was 16 and just recently started an apprenticeship! I love being able to share my experience and helping dancers gain new skills and reach goals they have for themselves! 

As well as teaching both our recreational and competitive classes I am the camp manager for our mitchell and exeter studios. 

 Hi, my name is Miss Ellie. I have been working at WPDC for 3 years as a teacher and assistant. I have taught all ages from 3 to 14. I’ve taught various styles including ballet, hip-hop, jazz, and contemporary. I enjoy choreographing for every style but my favourite is hip hop. 

I’m constantly coming up with combos to teach my hip-hop kids. I have also worked at various of our day camps. I love connecting with the kids I teach and not only being their teacher but their friend as well.
 

 Hi, my name is Emma. I am very excited to start teaching this year. I grew up dancing, I started recreational dance when I was 3 and jumped right into competitive dance at the age of 5. I danced competitively for 12 years doing all styles such as tap, hip-hop, contemporary/lyrical, jazz, acro and ballet and then when my journey as a dancer came to an end I became a dance instructor at a studio in Clinton, ON. I truly enjoy teaching kids and watching them grow as dancer. My favourite styles of dance to teach is tap, hip-hop and contemporary.  A couple interesting facts about me is at the age of 13 I joined my dance studio in Los Angelas, California and we danced Main Street at Disneyland and at the age of 15 I got to experience what is it like being a background dancer for The Next Step tv show. Something I would tell the kids is to never stop chasing for what you want, you can accomplish anything you put your mind too.   

Hey, my name is Drew. I danced competitively for 4 years. My favorite style of dance is Hip Hop. I love working with kids and seeing their skills progress and encouraging other boys that dance isn't just a feminine sport for girls.

Dance requires muscle, coordination, and skill and these are all great skills for every child to learn. I would tell my dancers that if they love to dance, do it!! Who cares who's watching?
