Be at your PEAK Performance in time for the competition!

What is PEAK?

PEAK Training Sessions are a 'Performance Enhancing Approach to Kompetition'.  JC Dance Co.'s principle coaches, Joel & Clara, have designed the class to supplement your learning, by specifically applying your skills to competition dancing.  Joel and Clara have developed these sessions especially to train competitors to reach their optimal PEAK performance at just the right time.

Come out and have a more effective and focused practice.  PEAK will address such issues as Floorcraft, Presentation, Mental Preparation, Warm-Up, Drills, Stamina Training and more!  Many of the teaching methods that Joel & Clara use, have been developed from their experiences training in England, Italy and Denmark. This is your chance to train like top level dancers from around the world, here in Vancouver!

Training Session Format

Each PEAK will begin with a short mini 10-minute lecture summing up the focus of the day. The remainder of the class will include regular Individual Exercises to build flexibility and coordination; Couple Exercises that will address couple coordination, lead and follow, and basic awareness; and Routine Practice with emphasis on mental focusing, floorcraft and real-time distraction.

First timers are always welcome!  Although you can come individually, it is best to come with a partner.  The PEAK Training session is designed as a continuous and progressive training class.  Therefore, it would be most beneficial for you to purchase a package and attend all sessions, so that you can build on your skills from week to week (at a discounted price too!).  If you do not think you can commit to attending PEAK regularly, but would like to attend on a drop-in basis, you may also do so.

PEAK is suitable for all levels.  No matter what level you are competing at, all dancers must learn to develop the same skills.  Technique is technique, whether you are in Bronze, Silver, Gold or Championship level. All you need to join the class, is dedication and determination.
