About Dance FX
Teresa Morrissette started dancing at the age of 6 at Peggy Peat school of Dance. There she learned the love of dance and realized at an early age that this is what she wanted to do forever! Performing in numerous shows, events and competitions, she finished all of her dance exams and became a qualified Teacher through the Canadian Dance Teachers Association in 1992. Teresa has been taught by many amazing instructors such as, Patsy Swayze, Kenneth Green, Bill DeRicco, Debbie Dee, Art Stone, Greg Russell, Steven Boyd, Belinda Sobie, Margaret Derksen, and Bill Robertson. She has taken many workshops here in Vancouver, New York and Las Vegas.
Teresa’s Dream at the age of 10 was to someday open her own studio and that dream is a reality! It's what she has always wanted to do, to show the laughter, the fun and the joy of dance.

HipHop is now the most prolific dance style in the World, with a huge industry following. This can be seen in many music videos and backing major label music artists across the globe. More recently it has become the theme for box office smash movie projects (Step Up 3D and the UK's Street Dance 3D) and reality television shows BBC's So You Think You Can Dance and MTV's America's Best Dance Crew).
Dance brings out wonderful, amazing qualities in your children, it relieves stress and is a great fun way to get a physical cardio workout.
