Notice:
Dear friends of Canyon Movement Company,
It is with heartfelt love and deepest emotion that we inform you that our studio, Canyon Dance Academy will no longer be in operation as of August 7, 2021. We know this is unexpected. It has been a whirlwind of decision making and consideration during the past few weeks. To honor all of our past students and teachers, we will continue to celebrate our 20th anniversary in our Facebook group culminating with a special NUTCRACKER event. Additionally, the adult COMPANY, Canyon Movement Company will CONTINUE to operate as a 501-c-3 non-profit organization creating and presenting dance and educational opportunities. We have several projects in the works. Thank you for your support. Please contact us if you have any questions.

We want to take a moment to thank all of our friends and supporters as we navigate these unprecedented times! Thank you for “attending” our virtual festival, for students taking online classes, for donations and moral support! We, like everyone else, keep moving forward with a cautious eye on the future. We can’t wait to see you at a live performance in the future, or in class. We are excited and grateful to announce that the Flagstaff Arts Council has awarded us some emergency relief funds to help us pay our bills during the pandemic. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
