Reviews of Archway Dance (Dance School)

Gina has created a warm and accepting dance environment for all ages and abilities. My littlest boy and girl started in her Tiny Toes drop in classes about 3 years ago and I loved how open Gina was to allowing my shy one dance with me until he was comfortable. Now at 5 yrs old, my daughter loves her dance classes and asks every night "is tomorrow my dance day?". I've even come back to dance myself, having never tried hip hop, jazz or tap genres. I look forward to my "me time" each week. Mission, BC is so lucky to have Gina's international experiences and talents at Arch-way Dance.

Our Daughter has been dancing at Archway since she was 4 years old. Now that she's almost 7, I can say with absolute confidence that enrolling at Archway was the very best decision that we made. Gina is a fabulous teacher who gives her students everything she's got and I would recommend this studio to absolutely everyone.

I cannot say enough good things about this dance school. The welcoming and non-judgemental atmosphere makes you fall in love with it from the start. Although not a competitive school, which is exactly what I was looking for, there is a great routine during class and miss Gina has the magic to keep the kids focused and enthusiastic at the same time. All 3 of my girls are crazy about their class and teacher and after 20 yrs of no dancing, I myself am enjoying the therapeutic and empowering effects of dancing again within a group of lovely ladies. THIS is what dancing should be about!

Two of my daughters have danced with Gina. We had a fantastic experience with her. She's patient with her students, communicative with the parents, and you can tell that her passion is dance! Archways dance is an excellent option for anyone looking for a dance studio that they can feel entirely comfortable and happy in!

We love Ms. Gina and Archway dance! My daughter and son have been dancing at Archway for almost five years now. Gina is patient, kind, enthusiastic and shares with her students her passion, and love for dancing. My daughter has progressed so much in her classes over the years, from the toddler rolling around on the floor in the tiny toes classes. I am amazed year after year at her growth in the classes! Little girls need positive female roll models and that is just what Ms. Gina is to my daughter. She wants to be dance a teacher when she grows up! Thanks Gina for keeping this studio fun, affordable and progressive! - Sheneal

My kids have been dancing with Miss Gina for a few years now, and I can't imagine them dacing for anyone else! She is very much a big part of our lives; she is so keen and intuitive when it comes to teaching young minds. My girls never want to miss a class, and look forward to seeing her multiple times a week- she has a knack for making the kids always want to come back for more! Her passion for what she does is so evident- the summer dance camps were a huge hit this year, and the drop-in classes r a life saver for the finicky toddler era ;) Can't go wrong with Arch-way <3

We've absolutely loved our time with Miss Gina, she's all about the love of dance and movement. As a self proclaimed "non dance mom" I hesitantly tried a few studios with no luck until we found Archway. It has absolutely changed my opinion about dance, and I'm SO glad we bit the bullet and signed up our kids. If you're in Mission or surrounding areas, I would 100% recommended this school/studio. They have something for everyone from toddlers to adults! My only warning, bring some tissues to the end of year show, I cried like a baby.

Archway Dance! Miss Gina and all of her staff are amazing to work with, I can't say enough good things about this studio! Their professionalism, with all the ages of people that they work with shows in their dance and positive attitude! The studio is clean, and sanitary! Amazing work has gone into the studio. Students all are happy and it shows! Definitely recommended!

I’ve taken my 3 year old to Drop In Dance Class for 3-5 year olds on Saturday morning and she had a great time! Classes were always on time, were structured just enough for the kids to feel comfortable, but creativity was fully encouraged. I would highly recommend!

Gina is a Saint! She evokes the joy of movement without unnecessary rigidity. Her dancers LOVE being there because she is a thoughtful and fun teacher who also has incredible skill and really GETS kids. Her studio is free of judgement and inviting to people of all backgrounds and body types. I took up dance as an adult after having never danced before because of Gina and it is the most fun I have ever had in an activity.

Awesome. Great instructors, great group of people. Lovely space . Awesome fitness and social experiences. Dancing at Arch way is an all around fantastic experience.

Simone Redburn

I have been to ALOT of dance studios for both adult and kids classes and what I love about Archway is how obvious it is that Gina loves her job. The kids feel her love of dance and that really shines through for them and creates such an uplifting and fun experience for them.

We absolutely love Miss. Gina and the dance school that she has created in Mission, BC. My daughter started dancing with her when she was three years old in her tiny toes classes. It was the highlight of her week when she got to dance with Miss. Gina!! Gina has such a warm and inviting personality and live of dance and makes each one of her students feel successful and loved. Gina has created such an inclusive and progressive dance company that we are honoured to be a part of. - Kirstin
