Thank you so much to Brenton Janet and the team at Fusion Dance. We've had the best party in studio B upstairs for my husband's 60th birthday. I'm still hearing all about it from our family and friends. The hall is spacious clean and suited all our needs . Brenton is more than accommodating, welcoming and friendly. He definitely goes the extra mile and reasonable is an understatement. Thank you so much for sharing your lovely spot with us and for helping us make so many fond memories for my husband's milestone Bday!!!! I recommend Brentons studios to anyone who is searching for a venue location. You won't be disappointed .

My wife and I signed up to learn ballroom dancing at the beginning of September and now that we are a couple months into it, I can say without hesitation that Fusion Dance and Wellness really is excellent!!Brenton and the entire team are so friendly and professional and they really do make you feel welcome as beginners. You don't need any prior experience and the way they have the beginner weekly classes set up, provides three times each week to attend and learn the dance style being taught at that time (everything from polka to tango to cha cha!). This makes it really convenient to go when works for you (perhaps a weekend works better than a week night - either way, they can accommodate!). Furthermore, the way the offering is structured is such that you have a weekly private lesson and then also have the opportunity to go to as many group classes as you'd like each week - this way, you can get one-on-one focused teaching as well as learning with your peers.Monthly fees can be paid by both e-transfer and credit card (though there is a small fee if paying by credit card) so that further provides convenience. The facilities themselves are excellent - large clean rooms to learn dance in with excellent sound systems and plenty of mirrors. The main lobby has cubbies to store outside shoes in and there are a number of parking spots (as well as lots of street parking as the parking lot is a little small and can fill up quickly on busy nights).And I have to of course talk about the instructors! They are all so pleasant and highly skilled - you can just see the passion they have for dance whenever talking to them! Jack is phenomenal - funny and just a happy person, and such an excellent instructor. He takes the time to make sure you understand the steps and really caters his lessons to your interest! Eva is another excellent instructor - she is so friendly and again, so highly skilled! Sasha has taught us jive and man can that guy move! Another excellent instructor :) I've not yet had the pleasure of learning from the other instructors but I can just imagine they are all excellent and friendly too!And last but not least I have to say that Janet the receptionist is a gem of a person - always greeting everyone with a smile on her face :) She keeps things organized in terms of signups for classes and does an excellent job!So if you've gotten this far in my review - hopefully you are no longer on the fence about going to learn ballroom! As someone who loves dancing for fun and thought it would be interesting to learn proper ballroom, I am so happy we signed up and I've learned so much! Thanks Fusion Dance and Wellness team!

Excellent instructors. Great set up.

Wonderful place to learn to dance for everyone from beginners to competitive dancers. Supportive teachers who not only know the dances but know how to teach. Great community too!

So happy to be a part of this studio. I have learned so much over the years, with help from instructors and other students. If you are having some difficulty there is always someone to help you. Brenton Mitchell and Cheryl Ewing have done a wonderful job in making Fusion Dance come to fruition. They not only have ballroom and Latin classes at the studio but also Ballet, West Coast Swing, Salsa Style and Danceable, this is geared around those who have any type of problem in which they think dance is closed to them, not so. There was a competition held on the second last weekend of November, Dance Atlantic Gala, at which a demo was performed by some of the Danceable students.The Gala it's self was a huge success seeing dancers from all over and lots of different styles.I have been fortunate enough to been involved in a number of these and found that no matter what, the fiercest competitors will gladly help if you are stuck on a move. Dance does bring people together.There is a definite friendly family atmosphere at the studio brought on by Brenton and Cheryl and down through the staff.Not only does the studio put on events where the students can show off their moves but the have organized some other events. the most recent upcoming is a dance cruise at the end of January into February, in a much warmer climate.One person not to be forgotten is the friendly maintenance gentleman. He keeps the lights on, the A/C or heat in working order, plumbing functioning and upgrades as needed. He is Brenton's father and we can see where Brenton gets his sunny outlook and care for people from.

This studio is great! It has very helpful teachers who make each student’s learning process easier! And it has fun events every couple months that students can watch or participate in!
