Academy of Dance The

The WORST studio in Kamloops hands down…. Don’t bring your kids here. A family owned business that has no right running this toxic establishment…PLEASE do your research before you enrol and commit to this studio. I taught the “ president “ of this place…her experience is limited, as is the owner” who is running it behind the scenes…they may know how to be business savvy…. Will con you into taking your money…but they don’t have the understanding of the fundamentals of nurturing the appreciation of the art of dance. This establishment is a poor investment in your child’s future in the dance industry. Please please ensure as a paying client for your child that you do serious research.

A bully is a bully. Say your sorry publicly without shedding a tear. You can’t feel that sorry. The damage is done. I was warned of this studio after I signed my daughter up. Fought to get deposit back, glad to say I never joined. My daughter was in one class when she was super young and best decision I made not to go back. Let me say no matter whether you say names or not, I personally know someone she deeply hurt with her podcast. It’s not okay. This is someone who is supposed to safe for our children. Doubtful.

My daughter is starting her 3rd year of dance at AOD and she absolutely loves all the teachers!

Ariya has attended AOD for the last year and a half moving from Grooves to Creative. She loves dance class, her teachers, and friends. AOD communicates frequently, provides outfits/tools/resources to assist with creating a flawless experience. We really hope we can watch a year end recital at some point but Covid has impacted that ability and AOD offered links so we could watch from home/work/our cars. This is the type of stability/routine (as a parent) our family cares and appreciates. Thank you to the hard work and all the help. We are looking forward to the next few years.

My daughters have been attending AOD for 8 years and couldn't be happier. The staff is above and beyond amazing and the productions are beautiful choreographed.

The wonderful humans who run this studio created a phenomenal experience for my daughter. It was her first year doing dance, and she loved every minute of it. She asks all week if it's a dance day! Thank you so much everyone for the dedication to making sure our little people have an awesome experience.

I love AOD I have been dancing there for just over 10 years. The teachers are so kind and welcoming. They have created a home where everyone is family.

My daughter has been dancing at this studio for over 4 years now. She loves all of the teachers she has come across in any Dance style. You can tell the owner has a passion for dance as it is reflected all through the studio from the dancers to the teachers. Keep up the good work
