🚨Teacher Alert!!!!!

We are thrilled to announce we have Rhett filling in for Miss Presli’s Maternity leave next season for a few months!! And bonus ! He will also be joining us at our summer camp 🤗 we can not be more excited to have him join our team ( even if it’s for a little bit ) ❤️

Make sure to give him a warm welcome 🫶

Rhett Gust is a passionate dancer, choreographer, and instructor from Saskatchewan.

He has successfully completed his RAD Advanced 2 ballet exam, CDTA Advanced tap exam, and ADAPT Inter 3 jazz exam. Additionally, Rhett is certified in ADAPT tap and jazz instruction, as well as Acrobatic Arts Module 1.

Rhett pursued professional training at The CLI Conservatory in Massachusetts, USA, under Teddy Forance. This intensive program allowed him to train daily with top choreographers in the industry, while mentored by contemporary choreographer Lucy Vallely. He gained valuable experience in film and stage performances, collaborating with choreographers such as Chris Scott, JA Collective, Monika Smith, Martha Nichols, Greg Chapkis, Andrew Mullet, and many others during his time at CLI.

Beginning in September 2025, he was hired by Royal Caribbean International Cruises aboard Quantum of the Seas as a dancer in the production cast.

🌸 Spring Dance Session is Here! 🌸

We’re so excited to invite all of our dancers—and anyone thinking about joining—to be part of our 5-week Spring Session! This is the perfect opportunity to stay moving, keep growing, and fall in love with dance all over again. 💃✨

This session is packed with multiple classes to choose from, giving everyone a chance to explore, improve, and have fun in a supportive and energetic environment. We’re also thrilled to welcome back some familiar faces—Miss Delaney and Miss Macey are home and ready to jump in, alongside Shanti, who will be helping with a few classes as weel. Plus, we’re excited to have Miss Kylee, a former Dance Connection dancer who has spent the past 7 years teaching in Rosthern, joining us to work with some of our younger dancers this spring!

We know it’s been a long dance year, but continuing your training is so important. These classes help dancers maintain strength, flexibility, and technique, while also building confidence and preventing that “backslide” that can happen after time off. Staying consistent now means stepping into next season feeling strong, prepared, and inspired.

Our goal is to attend Provincials in June, and participating in the Spring Session is a key part of staying performance-ready. It keeps dancers connected, focused, and improving as a team. 🌟

This session is also all about trying new things and keeping it fresh—dancers will learn fun, exciting combos and explore new styles and skills. It’s a great way to stay active, boost energy, and keep that love of dance alive!

We can’t wait to dance with you this spring! 💕

✨ A Huge Celebration for Our RAD Ballet Exam Dancers! ✨

Over the past two days, our incredible dancers stepped into their Royal Academy of Dance ballet exams—and we could not be more proud of each and every one of them. What an accomplishment! Ballet exams are a meaningful milestone that require dedication, focus, and a true love for the art.

We know that not everyone looks forward to exams, and that’s perfectly okay—not everyone enjoys being “put on the spot.” But these dancers embraced the challenge with confidence and determination. They showed how much they care about their training and how willing they are to keep growing, improving, and pushing themselves forward.

Their hard work WILL pay off. Continuing with these exams will only make them stronger, braver, and more confident—not just as dancers, but as individuals navigating life with resilience and grace.

A heartfelt thank you to Mr. Braiden and Miss Cassandra for their dedication, guidance, and unwavering support. We truly appreciate EVERYTHING you’ve done to prepare these dancers for this moment.

🎉 A massive congratulations to all of our exam dancers! 🎉
You may now breathe… until the next one! 😄
