What is the trial period?
September 9th marks the beginning of our dance season. We offer a two week trial period where for the first two weeks of the season, we hold open classes for any Brock student to try. During this time you can try as many classes, styles and levels as you would like in order to find what works best for you. By September 23rd, we ask that you have chosen the classes you will be a part of for the whole year in order for teachers to begin choreographing for our year end recital! We ask that after the two week trial period, you only continue attending classes you intend to remain in for the ENTIRE 2024/25 school year!

Are there any performance opportunities?
Yes! Outside of normal classes, dancers will have the opportunity to perform in our year end recital (with the exception of Strength and Technique). This is a show that you can invite friends and family to in order to show off your hard work from the year. In past years, we have also performed in the Santa Claus parade, the Brock Dance Benefit Showcase, and Brock's Relay for Life event.

"Brock Dance has been a great way for me to meet new friends while becoming involved in the Brock community outside of the classroom! The competitive team had allowed me to continue dancing throughout my university years in a new and exciting way. The recreational team has provided me the opportunity to teach dance, where I have been able to meet so many new people and gain experience in my future profession of teaching. I would definitely recommend Brock Dance for anyone wanting to continue their dance career after high school!"
- Fayth, 4th year student and Brock Dance Teacher
