We have been involved in ballet in Vancouver since both girls were 3 years old. We received a great foundation at other schools but felt like we hit a ceiling of how much the girls were advancing in technique, flow, creativity and precision. We are so grateful to have found Pacific DanceArts. My daughter is looking to have an international career in dance, and the faculty at Pacific DanceArts is both refining her dancing and assisting her in finding summer programs, competitions and connections to fulfill her goals.
PDA is the best coaching in the city. We are very excited to see what this season brings

For the past 11 seasons (ages 3-14) I've danced at PDA, and I've grown in so many ways. I've grown as a dancer and as a person. The friends I've made through PDA, are by far my closest. It's a great place to dance, grow up, and make friends for life!

Pacific Dance Arts is truly a treasured gem of a dance school and one that is easily set a part from the rest. When we first discovered PDA we immediately noticed the high level of excellence in both the teaching and the performances.
Furthermore their motto “the joy of dance” solidified our decision to enrol our daughter in their classes at the young age of 6 years old. We appreciated how they uniquely cared for each dancer and allowed every dancer to pursue their passions in dance.
Our daughter, Joslyn, is now 14 years old and now training with Pacific Dance Arts 6 days a week. She has received scholarships and opportunities to dance with other world-renown dance schools as a result of her training and will be attending Royal Winnipeg Ballet’s Summer Program this year.
We are so grateful for the professionalism, expertise and high level of excellence from all of the teachers at PDA and what they have imparted into Joslyn. Although there are many dance schools closer to our home, never once have we complained about driving her to dance (45 min.- 1 hour to get there) as we know Pacific Dance Arts has been and is the best of the best!!

We are so grateful for all of the training you provided Maya, but more importantly, we are so thankful for the support, care and encouragement you offered Maya. She has grown so much as a dancer in the past 2 years training with you, and her love of ballet has never been more.
We probably have never shared exactly how much PDA helped Maya, but just know that each of you were instrumental in helping Maya move forward and reclaim her love of ballet and build confidence in herself that was lacking -- through the instruction, through the support, through the other dancers -- the whole experience was so good for her, and it shows. So, please be proud of the amazing school you've created and know that you have contributed in so many ways to Maya's success.
