Royal Dance at The Forks

Dance is a practice that reflects culture, history, and storytelling, so what better place to dance than a place built on exactly those things. Year round, students practice ballet, jazz, hip hop, lyrical, contemporary, and acro in the upstairs studio. While students perfect their jetés and pirouettes, parents get to wander The Forks as they wait.

Located at the junction of the Red and Assiniboine rivers, The Forks (also known as Nestawaya in Cree) has been a meeting place for over 6,000 years – located on the original lands of the Anishinaabe, Cree, Oji-Cree, Dakota and Lakota peoples and resides in the homeland of the Red River Métis. This place also has deep ties with Dene and Inuit peoples, operates with water from Shoal Lake 40 First Nation, and has welcomed people from all walks of life to trade, visit, and build community. In this spirit, all staff and administration here respect the Treaties that were made on these territories, acknowledge the harms and mistakes of the past, and dedicate ourselves to move forward in partnership with Indigenous communities in a spirit of reconciliation and collaboration.
