We are so lucky to be welcoming back for August Intensive 2026!

Daniel’s incredible energy and enthusiasm in the classroom inspired so many last season and we can’t wait for him to share his incredible knowledge and artistry with all of you. Welcome back Daniel!

It’s official! We’re very excited to welcome .mingbo as a guest artist at this year’s August Intensive!

We can’t wait from you to learn from her!

This team 💙 This community 💙 This Day 💙

Our Season 43 recital was nothing less than spectacular. It was full of heart, talent, smiles, hugs, joy and celebration. We honoured ones we miss deeply, ones who are just beginning their journey with us and ones who took their last bow.

It one of our favourite days of the year for so many reasons but seeing 9 months of hard work come together to produce a professional quality show that showcases the talent, heart and grit of all of the dancers at EDF makes us so proud!

Thank you to every single person who made this day possible. We couldn’t do it without you! And to for capturing the beauty both on and off the stage.

Goodbye Season 43. Thanks for the memories. 💙⚡️💙 ⚡️

Up next: Congrats Grace!

Class of 2026!

Up next: Madi!

Something Madi wanted to share with younger dancers:
“Always try to remember your “why”. Why do you dance? Why do you show up for class every week and work endlessly toward a goal? It is truly the answer to these questions that will get you through the hard times. This will give you motivation to keep working when you’re tired, continue when you want to quit, and push you to grow to your full potential”.
