She has trained with some of Canada’s most prestigious companies and choreographers in various styles, including jazz, ballet, lyrical, contemporary, tap, hip hop, pointe, acro, musical theater, improv, and ballroom. Her education and training have taken her across Ontario, Manitoba, British Columbia, New York & California, with her most recent attendance at The Dance Awards in Orlando, Florida, to further her skills and draw inspiration from the best in the industry. Throughout her career, Harmony has had the privilege of training and performing with Canada’s National Ballet School, the Royal Winnipeg Ballet School and the Moscow Ballet Company. She has taken classes with many renowned instructors, always seeking ways to improve.
Harmony’s choreography has earned her numerous awards, scholarships, and recognition, including top choreography, judge’s choice, and many other specialty awards. Her students have been accepted into prestigious ballet schools, university dance teams, and have trained and performed internationally in Greece and England. Her choreography has also played a role in helping numerous studios achieve their “top studio” titles.
Emily is a ballet and contemporary dance instructor currently teaching at Kootenay DanceWorks in Rossland, BC. Emily’s dance training consists of direct mentorship by Renee Salsiccioli, the studio director and graduate of the Palucca University of Dance Dresden Master Dance Teacher program. Through this mentorship, Emily has explored new pedagogical approaches through hands-on teaching, choreography, anatomy, and dance medicine. Emily values community and inclusivity and is passionate about creating a safe and supportive environment where every student feels seen and valued. She enjoys sharing her love for ballet technique, creative expression, and guiding dancers to discover their own artistic voice.
