About TDA
Where Passion Meets Dance
Taylor’s Dance Academy (TDA) promises high energy, affordable, family friendly classes for you and your child. We are committed to providing our students extraordinary training by continuing to grow as instructors, administrators, and students ourselves.
We will encourage students to strive to the best of their ability and offer the correct training to complement their individual ability.
Building strong, confident dancers is important to us. By providing exceptional recreational, performance and competitive classes we hope to build not only exceptional dancers, but also strong, confident persons, now and through-out their life.
Our Teachers
Miss Taylor Nethery - Director
“I couldn’t be more proud of our dancers. Learning an art form/sport like dance takes hard work and dedication. Not only do these kids work hard, but they do it as a family and celebrate not only themselves but their teammates as well. I can’t wait to continue to see them learn and grow as dancers, and continue to see them be the kind and compassionate humans they are.”
Miss Mackenna Lyons
“I am so proud of and happy for our dancers. They work so hard and I love sharing the skills and discipline that I learned through dance growing up. I adore every single one of my students and I love watching them grow into strong beautiful dancers.”
Miss Kristin O’Neill
“It’s a pleasure teaching every group of dancers at TDA. They are so determined, motivated, and dedicated to the art of dance. Every year I can’t wait to see their hard work pay off on stage. I always remind our dancers to remember to enjoy their time on and off stage, soak it all in, and watch as dance impacts all aspects of their life.“
Mr Kanye Pereira - Hip Hop Instructor
“There is nothing better than watching each dancer work so hard to accomplish their goals and do it with the biggest smiles on their faces. Seeing all their progression has been very inspiring not just for me, but for everybody who has seen how hard they work.”
Miss Claudia Jermoel
“I am beyond excited to be joining the TDA family, I have never been more welcomed into an environment as fast as i have at TDA. The whole team of staff is so amazing and they put so much time and effort and love into everything they do, as well as all of the dancers who are so dedicated and supportive of one another. I can’t wait to share all of the knowledge I’ve gained over the past 8 years of dance training. .”
Mrs Kim (Momma Kim)
“Momma Kim is the real boss. She makes the costumes, manages things behind the scenes, and keeps the academy running. On top of that she teaches yoga at our studio and a selection of classes at the Senior Centre in Blenheim,” said Miss Taylor. “She is our rock!"
