Connie Parsons School of Dance is excited to begin our 15th Dance Season continuing a legacy of dance which spans over 40 years in St. John's, Newfoundland.
During the Summer of 2008 we expanded our school, adding a second studio to our current location with a 10 ft. ceiling, sprung floor, and large viewing window for parents!
During the Summer of 2009 we rennovated again! The Dance Spectrum ~ onsite Dance and Activewear Store has now moved to the other side of the building into a bigger and brighter space. Be sure to drop by our even bigger selection of the latest and greatest in dance attire, before heading back to class this season!
During the summer of 2010 our teachers have been busy training and advancing their skills in dance in order to offer you the best dance season yet! Miss Leslie was in New York City attending Broadway Dance Centre's Teacher Workshop in conjunction with The Pulse. The highlight of this trip was taking class with Mia Micheals from "So You Think You Can Dance"!! Next, Miss Leslie travelled to Europe to attend the Imperial Society of Teachers of Dancing summer school in Chichester England where she furthered her training in Modern and Tap.
Our 2010-2011 Dance Season promises to be the most exciting one yet! We have MORE classes, MORE programs, and MORE teachers involved than ever before. We are ready to offer our students the best training possible in the most creative and fun way we can! Be sure to view the new schedule posted on line with classes in Studio A and Studio B running simutaniously.
During the summer of 2009, Miss Connie, Miss Leslie, and Miss Ashley attended the Broadway Dance Center Teacher's Course in New York City, held in conjunction with The PULSE on tour. We worked with world-renowned choreographers from the hit TV show "So You Think You Can Dance" including Shane Sparks, Wade Robson and Chris Judd. We also took classes from Tony award winning broadway choreoraphers and stars. What an amazing wealth of information we have brought back to our studets here in Newfoundland!
CPSOD is thrilled to Welcome Katie Breen as a permenant teacher at our studio this year. She has been a teaching assistant for a number of years and did some substitute teaching on occasion last year. She did such and amazing job that we invited her to teach full time with us! Miss Emily Fardy, Miss Rebecca Harrell, and Miss Aislinn Dunn-Dicks will also be on board with us this season!
