Dance Program
Fall/Winter Session
Our non-competitive Fall/Winter season runs from September until March and features: safe, quality instruction, recital costume, class photos, and a year end performance at the Riddell Centre Theatre at the University of Regina.
A Twin Lake Membership / CA Membership ($10) is required for registration. Memberships will now be added to family accounts in JackRabbit at the start of each new programming year and can be paid for at the same time as programming. If you have a CA membership other than from Twin Lakes, any registrations will not be verified until an email with the CA membership has been sent to the Twin Lakes Community.
