Come join the Pink Petal team! We offer exceptionally fun, inclusive ballet classes for children ages 2–8 in North Vancouver. Our program runs weekly across three school-year terms (Fall, Winter, and Spring), with a joyful year-end performance each June and ballet camps every summer.
Our instructors are trained in child brain development and thoughtfully blend mindfulness, play, and age-appropriate ballet technique. Each class is designed to support young children’s mental well-being while nurturing creativity, confidence, and movement skills.
Pink Petal is a safe, welcoming space where little ones can express themselves freely—both physically and emotionally. Through dance and mindfulness, children build social connections, learn to feel comfortable in a group, and discover how movement can support their happiness.
Come dance with us—we’d love to meet you
