Cadance Academy has long been the Annapolis Valley's home for Ballet, following the Canadian Dance Teachers Association (CDTA) syllabus, a rigorous, structured approach our founder Linda Jess helped establish in the Valley. For students in Grade 10, 11, and 12, CDTA Ballet exams can be applied as additional credits toward their high school transcript, turning years of training into recognized academic achievement, right alongside the confidence and discipline they've built on the studio floor.
Session classes
A flexible option for exploring various performance art styles in shorter sessions.
- Pas de Deux
- Move & Groove Hip Hop
- Parent & Tot
Adult Program
It's never too late to dance. Our adult program has grown into one of the most rewarding parts of Cadance Academy, with dancers joining us across both session classes and full-year training. Some are working through structured Ballet exams, while others are here purely for the technique, the movement, the camaraderie, and the fun of a shared class. Whether you danced for years and are picking it back up, or are stepping onto the floor for the first time, you'll find a welcoming space to grow at your own pace.
Private lessons
Personalized one-on-one instruction tailored to the dancer's goals.
