DID YOU HEAR THE NEWS????

The Ontario government has announced that we are moving to phase 3 on Friday, July 16th!  This means that we can start holding IN PERSON dance classes for the last 2 weeks of our July session AND our 4-week August session! We look forward to welcoming back our dancers in studio!!!! 😍😍😍

NJADS is a safe space for everyone!

We are supportive of all dancers that come into our studio, regardless of age, shape, gender, ability or sexual orientation. We have gender neutral bathrooms, and are open to providing dancers costumes they are comfortable in regardless of their gender.

Not Just Another Dance Studio is committed to providing a safe space for our dancers and families. Belonging, diversity and inclusion are at the core of our community and integral to quality dance and education. As a studio, we aim to provide a second home for students, a safe space where they can explore their artistry and become their best selves without feeling unwelcome, unsafe or uncomfortable due to race, gender identity, cultural background, religion and spiritual beliefs, mental and physical ability or socioeconomic status.

Why Dance with us?

It is the Mission of Not Just Another Dance Studio to create confident, passionate dancers in an atmosphere that promotes Progress over Perfection.

We believe that the atmosphere we create in the studio for our dance family (our culture) is every bit as important as the education our students receive. We are focused on teaching the whole student; giving our dancers life skills such as dedication, determination and perseverance that will help them to succeed now, and for the rest of their lives!

NJADS INC. Core Values

● Positivity – Students are encouraged and built up in a safe environment to promote confidence. Students are physically, mentally and emotionally stimulated so that they can commit themselves to being the best dancer that they can be.

● Leading – We value teamwork, respect commitment to excellence, and lead by example. We believe that hard work is worth it, and winning isn’t everything.

● Integrity – We ensure age-appropriate music, choreography and costumes for each age group. Let kids be kids! Every student has worth and is unique, and they are empowered to feel free to express themselves.
