True Art Dance Academy

Bittersweet is the only way to describe this moment. 💙

After so many incredible years, memories, friendships, milestones, and countless hours of dancing, we are officially saying goodbye to our original River Place location. This space helped shape who we are today, and it will always hold a special place in our hearts.

While it’s never easy to close a chapter, we’re excited for what’s next! We are growing and expanding our home at our Gill Ave location by adding Unit 102 right next door. This expansion allows us to continue building, creating, and providing even more opportunities for our dancers and families.

Thank you to everyone who has been part of our River Place journey. The memories made within those walls will stay with us forever. Here’s to honoring the past while stepping confidently into the future. ✨

New chapter. Same passion. Bigger dreams.

And just like that our chapter 11 comp season is officially complete 🥹

Our dancers gave absolutely everything they had this weekend and fought hard with passion through every performance. This season brought so many beautiful memories, incredible achievements, and moments that reminded us why we love what we do so much 🙌🏻

More than the results, we are proud of the support, resilience, teamwork, and TRUE genuine love our dancers showed every single step of the way.

Congratulations to our dancers and teachers on a truly unforgettable season 💙💙💙

*Special thank you to Sarah and the entire staff of GDS on once again running such an incredible event. The hard work and dedication doesn’t go unnoticed. We are so grateful for all you do !!

A huge congratulations to our soloists, duo, and trios competing this weekend at Provincials!!

We are so proud of the hard work, dedication, and passion each of you has poured into these routines all season long. The commitment, courage, and growth we’ve seen from you all has been incredible, and we can’t wait to watch you take the stage and do what you love.

Remember to trust your training, perform with confidence, and enjoy every moment out there. No matter the outcome, you have already made your True Art family so proud 💙

As we head into Provincials over the next 4 days, we want to take a moment to celebrate all of the incredible groups attending!! ✨

We are beyond proud of every dancer for their hard work, dedication, growth, and passion throughout this season. Watching each team come together, support one another, and shine on stage has been so special.

Now it’s time to finish the season strong — dance full out, make memories, and enjoy every moment together. We can’t wait to watch you all take the stage and represent True Art with confidence, heart, and teamwork.

Good luck to all of our dancers and teachers this week — your True Art family is cheering you on every step of the way 🩵🩵
