classes and performance training to local students.\u00a0 Within a few years the Academy&#8217;s growth expanded to operations out of our dedicated studio spaces in the Banff industrial compound full time throughout the week.\u00a0 \u00a0With the birth of Rachael&#8217;s son and her acceptance onto the panel of examiners for the Royal Academy of Dance, BDA&#8217;s focus continues to be to offer quality local training for both recreational and examination students.<\/p><p>Banff Dance Academy provides high-quality dance training to every student that enters our doors. The passion and care that our instructors put into each class allows our students to achieve their goals both in their dancing and life. Our highly qualified instructors focus on developing strong dance technique in a fun and energetic atmosphere, while passing on their passion for dance.<\/p><p>We aim to help each dancer develop their technique, challenge their minds, boost their confidence and teach vital life skills. At Banff Dance Academy, your child will not only gain dance technique and knowledge, but will also gain life skills and knowledge, growing as a person. Our dancers also learn to be part of a team, making important friendships along the way and find a place to call a second home.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4f3eb9c3
