Looking to dance like you used to — but with some modifications for age/injury? 😅
I’m Jill, a lifelong dancer who spent years dancing recreationally in Waterloo and Toronto as an adult after my competitive dance career ended following high school.
I’m running a choreography-focused weekly class for adults who were former dancers. Choreography has modifications based on skill level or injuries, and dances won’t contain big jumps or turning sequences — but if you want to add them in or challenge yourself, you can!
Come explore dance in a no-pressure class meant to give you a physical and emotional release each week through feel-good movement.
Class Details
- Date / Time: Monday or Wednesday at 7:30/8pm (TBD)
- Classes are rolling and only cancelled weeks of holidays.
- Location: Mane Street Fitness Studio, Sault Ste. Marie, ON
- Cost: $15 drop-in, or buy a month of classes for $40
- Class format: Warm-up, center bar/strengthening exercises, and a short routine to learn/dance to.

- Requirements: A few years of dance classes with basic ballet foundations.
- Clothing: Thick socks or any style of dance shoe (the floor is textured). Clothing is whatever you are comfortable in. Note: you may want to bringing sweats to put over shorts (if that’s your preference) if we do any floor work.

Is This Class for You?
Anyone with former competitive or recreational dance experience (even if it’s been years since you’ve done it) should be fine.
If you’ve taken a few years of beginner dance classes as an adult, with some basic ballet and/or jazz foundations, you may also enjoy the class. If you’re curious to challenge yourself by learning more choreography in a fun, low-stress environment, this may be a good option to come try out.
