About Us
Dance Images by BJ is in it’s 21st year of operation. The studio is owned and operated by Barb Jackman. The primary objective of Dance Images is that of working hard to develop your child’s full dance potential while at the same time ensuring that their dance education is a positive one and encouraging a love and appreciation of dance in the process.
All of our Dance Educators at Dance Images maintain a high standard of Education, Enthusiasm, Love of children and a Passion for dance, therefore offering students qualified and caring instruction in Ballet, Tap, Jazz, Musical Theater, Lyrical, Hip Hop, Stretch & Conditioning. We work to always make the studio a warm and inviting atmosphere for students and parents. Being a part of so many young peoples dance training is a great privilege. A Dance Education encompasses far more than technique or the steps your children will learn. We believe the discipline of dance training gives young people a better understanding of commitment by offering them the chance to learn, experience the spirit of teamwork, and understand what hard work can accomplish. Our goal is to educate the minds, bodies and souls of our students. To teach them the skills needed for a successful life……..whether they go on to be professional dancers, dance teachers or avid supporters of the Arts……… their Dance Education will never be wasted.
Our season runs from Sept – May/June with the season being highlighted with our year end Dance Extravaganza – "Dance Magic". All dancers have an opportunity to showcase their efforts of their year of dance training for friends and family. Our Solo/Duo/Trio dancers may also have the opportunity to perform at our "Dancing for Hunger Showcase" - ALL proceeds from this go to the Moose Jaw Food Bank. Dancers in the Beginner & up levels will also participate in the Invitational Dance Carnival as well as older dancers will participate in other competitions, in and out of town.
Dance Images offers classes 6/7 days a week. (See classes for more information) and has 3 fully equipped dance rooms. Dancers can take classes on a once a week basis or multiple classes per week depending on their age and level. We have a full exam program for the interested dancer in Ballet, Tap & Jazz. Our Ballet program is based on the CDTA Ballet Syllabi and our Tap & Jazz is based on the ADAPT Syllabi. Both syllabuses offer a broad dance education to the exam and non exam student. All our staff is qualified in all the classes they teach.
We Look forward to our new season and we will work to the best of our ability for it to be a year of growth and great personal achievement for all of the students attending Dance Images.
