Another pinch me moment

Our contemporary number Last Rites made it to Provincials.

Out of 12,000 incredible entries across Alberta, BC, and Saskatchewan**, these girls danced their way to the top and earned themselves a spot in the Provincial Finals.

Never in a million years did we imagine our recreational dance studio would be here. Somewhere along the way, our dancers organically grew into a competitive program while still dancing far fewer hours than many of the studios we were standing beside.

Last night, we watched in awe as the finalists took the stage. We didn’t bring home the win, but I would argue that we didn’t walk away empty handed. These dancers learned what they are truly capable of and proved to themselves that they belong in every room they step into. They learned to trust their talent, their work ethic, and what they bring to the table.

What started as a bit of a hot mess at dress rehearsal turned into a long festival season filled with determination, growth, and extra work between competitions. The hard work paid off, and the journey was worth every moment.

We couldn’t be prouder of these beautiful dancers and the humans they are becoming.

Love you all ❤️

From Provincials straight to the Readers’ Choice Awards - to say we are honoured is an understatement.

This award is a reflection of our incredible community, dancers, staff, and dance families who make ODF what it is. Being able to celebrate this recognition during our 10th year is truly surreal.

Thank you for your trust, support, and belief in us over the past decade. We are so grateful to be a part of your lives and your children’s dance journeys.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you. We will never take this honour for granted. ❤️

Today, we celebrate an incredible group of dancers who are graduating Grade 12 and closing an important chapter of their lives.

Over the years, we have watched these dancers grow not only in their technique and artistry, but also into strong, confident, and inspiring young adults. Their dedication, perseverance, leadership, and passion have left a lasting impact on our studio and the dancers who look up to them.

While we will miss seeing them at the studio and on stage, we are so excited to watch them take on the next chapter of their journeys. We know they will continue to accomplish amazing things wherever life leads them.

To our graduating seniors, thank you for the memories, the laughter, the hard work, and the example you have set for our younger dancers. We are incredibly proud of each and every one of you.

Please join us in congratulating our **Class of 2026 graduates!** 🎉💙

Your dance family will always be cheering you on!

June 1st, 3rd, and 4th

We are so excited to introduce Paint the Rainbow Week at ODF! This week will feature a special schedule of classes that all ODF dancers are invited to attend!

This is a fun opportunity for dancers to step outside their usual routine, try a new genre they may have never experienced before, take class from a new teacher, and connect with dancers across the studio.

We encourage all dancers to take advantage of this exciting week, join as many classes as they’d like, and most importantly—have a blast! We can’t wait to see geveryone bring their energy, excitement, and colour to Paint the Rainbow Week!

Please register for these classes at the link in bio and head over to our website to view the schedule!
