Our classes are 30 mins in length for our younger dancers (18m-5yrs) and 45 mins in length for everyone 5yrs-adult. Our classes run on Tuesdays with most of our classes being offered on demand around your busy schedule. This means that when you register, you select your desired class style and let us know your availability. We will schedule your classes at a time that works best for you! We do have a select few classes that are offered at a specific time due to teacher availability. These are listed below. We are currently looking for more volunteer dance teachers so there are always opportunities for an increased variety of dance styles to be added to our list!

Class Styles

The Energetic Pups

This class is filled with fun and adventure while children under 3 dance and play a variety of games to keep them moving and mingling with an exciting group of friends! Though aspects of dance will be incorporated into this class, such as ballet and tumbling, it will be structured more as play group and will not include a year end recital or costume. Parent/guardian participaction is welcome in this class but not required.

An Un-Fur-Gettable Encore

Do you want more? This fun but intense class will get your heart pumping and body sweating. This all-levels welcome adult dance and fitness class is designed for us to encourage and empower each other. We will verbally and/or physically support each other while learning new moves or relearning old skills. Classes will begin with a workout and stretch and end with acrobatics activities. Options to perform in the year end recital are available. Childcare holding you back from registering? No problem! Bring them along with some snacks, a toy or a colouring book. We will ensure the music is not too loud for their little ears. 

The Jammin’ Otters - 6:45-7:30pm

Think of ZUMBA, but with a wider range of dance styles and music! Our classes are family friendly so feel free to bring your children along to join in the party or to play and colour with each other while you workout! 

Shell Yeah! - 7:30-8:15pm

A graceful ballet class for adults to gather and enjoy each others company! Just like our other adult classes, children are more than welcome to join in the fun or snack while you dance.

Sea You Soon

A lively adult latin dance class. Dancers will learn to cha cha, rumba and jive their way across the dance floor. Options to perform in the year end recital are available and of course children are welcome to join in the fun!

EHCD strives to provide fun, affordable classes for everyone! We begin with a warm up and stretch and end with smiles and a take-home snack. Each class is customized to meet the needs of the dancers. During our first week we may invite dancers to attend longer classes for level assessments. We feel it is important for dancers to learn at a pace best suited for their individual needs so we group students in our acrobatics and cheerleading classes based on skill rather than age. Dancers not in acro or cheer are welcome to join for fun. Class styles and times will be assigned based on enrollment and will be sent via email following the assessment. Classes with lower enrollment may be merged to ensure as many dancers get the dance style they desire.

Did you know???

An otter pups fur is soo dense it is not able to dive under water for the first 6 months of its life. When mom needs to hunt for food she will blow into the babys fur to poof it up and let the ball of fluff float on its back until she returns.
