About Us

From a very young age, director Nicole Clinton dreamed of opening a studio in the small town where she grew up in, Ayr, Ontario. 

Now, heading into Season 3, Nicole is excited to be able to share her passion for the arts in a space that is positive, encouraging and welcoming of dancer's and their families. 2 years later and with 2 locations in both Ayr and Cambridge, NLC is flourishing along with all the dancer's in it! 

NLC Dance Company has and will continue to pride itself in providing dancer's the highest quality of training, in the most positive and encouraging mindset. The studio and its staff are strong believers in building dancer's up: both in their personal and dance careers. NLC Dance Company will focus on it's teaching methods, with the thought that every dancer who walks in their doors are "human's first, dancer's second". 

NLC Dance Company offers programs for every dancer; whether that be at the Competitive Level, Pre-Competitive Level, or Recreational Level. Every dancer that enters our doors will hold the same importance in our hearts and will be encouraged to become not only the best dancer they can be, but the best human they can possibly be. 

NLC Dance Company offers classes from Ages 1.5-Adult and in the genres: Jazz, Tap, Ballet, Hip-Hop, Lyrical and Contemporary, Musical Theatre, Acro and Pointe. 

It is our goal that each dancer that steps into our studio feels welcomed, important, encouraged and accepted.
