Our hand-selected instructors represent a cross-section of the Waterloo Region’s finest teachers and performing artists. Many are classically trained, (most have University bachelor degrees, while a few have attained Master’s level degrees as well as specialties in Education) and each must meet our own stringent qualification requirements. Each instructor is also a professional performing artist in her or his own right, bringing a high level of real-world experience to each lesson.
