Kim Craft (Owner/Instuctor) 

Kim began dancing at the age of three with Ruth Foster who lived a walking distance away, beginning with tap and ballet.  She practiced R.A.D Ballet technique doing exams every year, achieving honors and high honours.

At the age of 12, Kim auditioned here in Saint John for the Toronto National Ballet School, for which she was chosen.  She attended a six week summer course on campus in Toronto, with no communication with her parents.  This was a once in a lifetime experience for her, which will never be forgotten.  Kim was asked to stay and train to become a choreographer, for which she declined, as she was young and not prepared to move away from home.

At the age of 14, Kim began dancing at Eileen McGrath's School of Dance where she was introduced to Jazz.  Kim taught there at the age of 15, opening one of their new locations.  They trained Al Gilberts Syllobus doing exams in Jazz and Tap.  Kim also travelled to New York and Boston to attend many workshops and technique classes.

In 1994, Kim opened my own dance school with 19 students dancing at a church hall.  Look at us now!  A studio of her own with over 100 students and a family oriented school.  Loving every minute of it!
