What people are saying...

My daughter walked through the doors of Pegasus Studio when she was 8 years old and has never looked back.  She immediately felt at home and, over the years, has had the confidence and curiosity to explore many styles of dance and to decide where her passion lies.  There are several highlights that must be acknowledged when talking about my daughter's experience at Pegasus.  The annual performance brings so much joy to everyone - the audience, the dancers, the teachers.  It is the culmination of a tremendous amount of hard work and has created memories that will last a lifetime.  As she has advanced in dance, my daughter has set goals for herself, has pushed herself beyond her perceived limits and has rejoiced in her achievements.  The day she was fitted for her first pair of pointe shoes was one of the happiest days of her life.  The teachers nurture the dancers while still exhibiting rigour and professionalism.  Pegasus has been an integral part of my daughter's life and has created an incredible, indelible mark on her childhood.  
​
Sincerely,
Grace
