Mission Dance Centre’s Pre-Professional Program
The Okanagan’s finest Pre-Professional Program since 2005, designed for dancers who are passionate about ballet and want to enrich their knowledge and technique in other styles such as flamenco, contemporary, modern, hip hop, and many more. This is an intense program with classes based on technique and artistry as well as repertoire for performances such as Mission Dance Centre’s “The Nutcracker” and “Swan Lake”.
We are a school with heart and dedication to our students.
