I absolutely adore this dance studio! As a young adult I decided to get back into ballet, after a seven year break from competitive dance as a child. I was looking for an adult ballet class that felt small enough and personalized enough that I could really work on my technique and improve. Miss Jen has perfectly provided this environment giving individual attention in group lessons and being ever so understanding, compassionate and encouraging. As a young dancer I was very perfectionist and critical of myself and while I still am I also feel so comfortable and accepted at Driftwood Dance, something I didn’t feel in my younger dancing days. I would so highly recommend this studio to children, teens and adults of all ages. My ballet classes are the highlight of my week and I love seeing so many smiling faces there ❤️

My fiancee and I need to learn to dance together for our wedding party. We only had a few days to learn the basics. Laura was fantastic! Clear and concise. And she says she had not done this type since college. She could have fooled me. They say this a gem or North Vancouver. The gem is the diamond, of the finest cut. My only wish would be to have adult class for ball room dancing.

I'm a beginner, a guy and this week marks the end of my first 10-week session of Adult Modern dance.

Guess what? I loved it and I'll be coming back!

Very easy to get there from Vancouver by public transit, bright clean studio space, and warm welcoming smiles. I was impressed with the overall choreography and how the warm-ups and exercises connected to the routines. Jen's passion to her craft, enthusiasm and dedication to her students was inspiring. While I did have challenges learning the choreography by the end I felt confident, coordinated (haha) and proud of my accomplishments.
