Each year, our recital is a celebration of the work our dancers have been building all season. This year’s program is especially rich, offering both a sweeping ballet centerpiece and a high-energy, multi-generational jazz feature.

Studio Stars are dancers who lead with kindness and commitment.

As the year winds down, we’ve been reflecting on the small breakthroughs, the big moments, and all the in-between parts that make up a dance year.

Dance is an accrual of practice, not a single moment.

Growth happens in class, but it’s supported by what dancers do between classes. A few small habits can deepen technique and build confidence.

I’m honoured to share that I’ve been long-listed for ArtsNL’s Arts Educator of the Year Award. This recognition means so much, not only on a personal level, but as an affirmation of the work happening every day in our province’s arts education community.

We affectionately call November “No Joke November” at LPD.

By the time November rolls around, dancers have settled into their routines and have found their rhythm. This is the month when all that early-season groundwork starts to pay off.

Have you ever watched your dancer on stage and suddenly felt your heart leap when they did, or found yourself holding your breath during a quiet moment of stillness? That feeling isn’t just imagination or pride. It’s science.

Gratitude can live in the small, everyday moments. In laughter. In teamwork. In the quiet pleasure of learning something new.

People develop at their own pace. What comes easily to one dancer may take another more time; it’s the nature of growth. Comparison can make us lose sight of this truth.

A brand-new dance season is here, and we couldn’t be more excited to welcome dancers back into the studio!

We are thrilled to introduce the incredible team of teachers, administrators and carers who will be leading our dancers through the 2025–2026 season.

While our regular classes kick off in September, the Performing Group officially begins in October and we can’t wait to get started!

The first day of classes is Monday, September 8, 2025, and we can’t wait to welcome you or welcome you back!

We are so excited to launch a brand-new series this fall: LPD’s Thursday Special. Every Thursday night in October and November, Dancers Level 3+ are invited to gather at the studio for a focused session designed to build technique, explore choreography, and try something new together.

We are so excited to welcome you to another season at Lynn Panting Dance!

Whether you're returning to the studio or stepping into your first dance class with us, this year is already buzzing with possibility.

This post will give you an overview of what to expect this fall.

We’re thrilled to kick off a new season at Lynn Panting Dance with our Open House on Saturday, September 6, 2025. It’s a friendly, low-pressure way to meet teachers, see the studio, and start the year feeling confident and connected.

Leadership, mentorship, and community are core to how we learn. Our Teaching Assistant (TA) Program invites dedicated dancers to support classes, model studio values, and grow as leaders.
