Introducing the owner and director of the studio, Miss Stacey! 🎉
Stacey has over 33 years of full-time teaching experience, and is the proud owner and director of Harbour Dance Studios Inc in Nanaimo BC. While she has taught and performed in every dance discipline, she now primarily focuses on tap and jazz classes, private lessons, and CDTA exam preparations. Growing up, she trained extensively in Ballet (RAD & ADAPT), Jazz (CDTA & ADAPT), Tap (CDTA & ADAPT), Lyrical, and Highland. ✨
Stacey has recently expanded her love of dance by purchasing a retail store for dancers.
She is a Licentiate member of the CDTA National Branch’s Stage Division in Tap, Jazz, and Acro and has played an active role in the organization, serving in various leadership positions, including Secretary and President. Currently, she is a National Board Director for BC and sits on the Tap Committee for the National Board. Since 2012, Stacey has also been a dedicated CDTA Examiner in Tap, Jazz, and Acro, regularly conducting exams throughout British Columbia and recently in Saskatchewan as well.
Beyond her CDTA credentials, Stacey holds a Canadian Dance Leadership Adjudication Certificate and an Acrobatic Arts Adjudication Certificate. She has also completed the Savvy Dance Teacher course, which emphasizes health and wellness in the studio.
In 2022, Stacey was honored to become the Chairman of Festival Du Ballet, a non-profit competition in Surrey, BC, specializing in ballet, modern, and contemporary dance. This volunteer-run event provides scholarships and opportunities for dancers, including sponsorships for BC Provincials. 🩰
In recent years, Stacey has also served as a judge for multiple competitions, including Shine, Evolve, Versastyle, Euphoria, Dance Drive Festival and various events across Saskatchewan and Alberta.
Stacey finds immense joy in sharing her passion and expertise with dancers and teachers alike.
