Wendy Leard School Of Dance

I was absolutely BLOWN AWAY by how amazing the Showcase was. It’s odd to me anyone would think you could just pop in and watch some of it - it’s a full show packed with amazing talent and hard work. Well worth it!

Adequate teaching..cancel classes to take there selected dancers places..overcharge overinflate costume prices and expect parents to drive back and forth to our of city dance recital (they don't do competitive).

Wendy Leard and staff are wonderful!!!! They are so kind and my daughter joined this yearAnd loves it so much she wanted to dance more !! Thank you Wendy and Team for motivating my daughter Mia and gaining her confidence !!! ❤️

Best dance school and dance family I could ever ask for! There is no where else I would rather be!

The best dancing school in the region

Wonderful family vibe. Wendy cares about all her dancers on and off the dance floor

Final shows are 3 hours long and they make sure each poor kid has some few dance numbers spread through the entire 3 hours span. This is obviously done to force parents to stay in the theatre for the entire show so the theatre won't be empty at the end. It is really awful how they use the kids and wear them out to reach their purpose.I thought it was just profound disorganization, but it seems this is purposely done. Also what is this thing of making children damce by shaking their bums to the audience under red lights? Do they call that dance? I call it initiation.

So proud of each and everyone who participated in Saturday's Santa Claus parade. You all braved the cold and wind gracefully. You all represented Wendy Leard School of Dance with a smile on your rosey cheek faces.Great job and can't wait for the Snowy Showcase performance.

Wendy Leard School of Dance is nothing but professional and caring. Wendy and her staff show compassion, professionalism and dedication to the kids in the studio. Not only do her teachers VOLUNTEER their time so kids have a place to dance and show their expressions, they also continually take time out of their lives and family to ensure their teaching qualification is current. Wendy and her staff put the kids first and if you have ever gone to another dance studio you would not question that. Wendy’s prices are minimal and having my son dance in numerous classes, paying a set amount is key. Anyone I have talked to cannot believe how inexpensive my sons dance is for the number of classes he is part of. Wendy ensures that all kids have the same experience in the showcase, so that the theatre is still full for the other kids. Nothing is worse than having people walk out during your performance. Or feeling like you don’t matter as much as the next kid. Showcase maybe 3 hours but when you see the smiles on all of the kids faces, the kids downstairs while waiting for their number copying the other classes dances and making new friendships. You can see, Wendy Leard School of Dance is more than just a dance studio. It is a family and one in which it’s nice to have the right people part of. A dance school doesn’t stay around for 40+ years just being adequate or caring only about money. It’s because they have heart!!

I have been an adult student at Wendy Leard's studio on and off for a few years. Wendy is incredibly organized and professional, and despite all the covid confusion, she has been on top of the game, communicative and responsive every step of the way. I feel safe in her large studio space with the many safety protocols in place. She is a warm, welcoming and passionate leader who cares deeply about what her business offers and the people who walk through the doors. Highly recommend to anyone looking to send their child to a dance studio in Niagara!
