Our Philosophy
We strive to inspire our students and nourish their creativity by providing them with a combination of our professional, technical expertise and the strong passion and love that we have for dance.
In our vibrant studio atmosphere, we are committed to open communication and mutual respect. We take very seriously our position and responsibility as role models in the lives of our students. We look forward to being a part of nurturing positive, meaningful relationships.
We build beautiful dancers in body, mind and spirit.
Our History
Established in 1994 as Excalibre Dance Productions Inc., the studio underwent a significant transformation in 2006 becoming dansko Sutdios. dansko studios operates out of a premier 6,000 sq. ft. facility, custom-designed in 2002 specifically to meet the needs of dancers. Our home features:
Three air-conditioned, spacious studios equipped with professional sprung floors and 12-foot ceilings.
A large lounge and kitchen area featuring viewing windows and a gallery overlooking the studios.
Modern amenities including dedicated changing rooms
Since 1994, we have maintained a strong partnership with Saanich Commonwealth Place. In addition to our main building, we utilize 2 additional studio spaces located just minutes away.
We take immense pride in our long-standing reputation for excellence and our consistent track record of success within the dance community.
“Dansko Studios has been my second home for many years – first as a student and then as an instructor. As a student I always felt comfortable and welcomed into the studio and that my best interests were carefully considered. As an instructor, I learned how hard the Directors and instructors work to provide a high quality environment where children and teens can learn to dance, learn to work within groups and grow into strong individuals. The office door is always open and there is always someone willing to answer a question or provide guidance to ensure the best Dansko experience.”
