La gang    d'SKB

Notre équipe est nées dans le petit village d'Iroquois Falls, en Ontario. Tous les trois ont commencé à danser avec l'école de danse Nancy Wasilik et ont continué avec Iroquois Falls School of Dance. Après avoir vécu dans de nombreuses villes et se diriger en différentes carrières, Stephanie, Brittnay et Kelly sont tous retournés à Iroquois Falls et ont officiellement commencé à travailler ensemble pour la troupe compétitif  Stage Stars en 2013. Aujourd'hui, ils travaillent tous ensemble au Step ' N Sound Dance Studio.

“We have so much to offer the studios and their students! We believe in fun, education and hard work! We can’t wait to showcase our one-of-a-kind experience to everyone who attends!”

 

Stephanie currently owns her own dance studio in Iroquois Falls and understands the needs of the directors, teachers, students and parents.

 

“I am a product of the competition life! I began competition at the age of 10 and never left! Between competing and teaching and performing professionally… dance has been my entire life and I intend to dedicate every second to making sure our dancers experience the life-changing atmosphere and events as I did. It all helped shape me into the person I am today!”

 

Stephanie is overwhelmed with excitement for this year’s round of Stage Kraze & Beyond’s competitions and looks forward to continuing to share her passion for the performing arts with studios and dancers for years to come!

"When all else fails, just keep dancing!"

 

Brittnay Del Guidice

Dance has always been a big part of Brittnay's life. She started dancing at the age of 5 in her hometown of Iroquois Falls, ON. As a little girl she spent countless hours dancing and making mini-recitals for the members of her family at gatherings. As a tiny tot, Brittnay started in Tap and Jazz and stuck with those genres for 6 years. She eventually broadened her horizons by trying new genres and became a competitive dancer at the age of 13, competing in Lyrical, Jazz, Hip Hop, Tap, Musical Theatre, Modern and Contemporary. At that point, dance became an immense part of her life. 

Brittnay engaged in many workshops throughout the years. She got the opportunity to work with many big names in the dance industry, such as Chris Erk, Tara-Jean Popowich, Loic Mabanza, Mirhan Kirokosian and even Mia Michaels. Getting to even be in the same room as Mia Michaels was a huge honour, but getting to dance with her was a dream come true for Brittnay. With all the dance training, she finally put it to good use when she choreographed and taught for the Stage Stars Competition Team for 4 years. 

In 2016, Brittnay completed her Bachelor's Degree in English with a minor in Communications after spending 5 years of working on her post-secondary education in both Sudbury and Ottawa, Ontario. Although she loves the city, she came back to her roots to begin her career. Today, she is the Office Coordinator for the Iroquois Falls Chamber of Commerce and she is the Office Manager for the Step 'N Sound Dance Studio, where she also teaches Jazz, Contemporary and Ballet. Contemporary has been Brittnay's favourite dance genre since she was a teenager and she is so happy to be teaching it again.

"Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass, it's about learning to dance in the rain."

 

Kelly-Ann Belanger

Kelly-Ann was born in Timmins, Ontario but raised in Iroquois Falls. She began dancing at the age of 3 with the Nancy Wasilik School of Dance and at the age of 8, joined the competitive dance team. Kelly spent many years competing in Tap, Jazz, Ballet, Modern, Lyrical, Hip Hop and Musical Theatre with the Iroquois Falls School of Dance. In 2008, she wanted a change of pace which is when she began her new dance chapter at the Northern Lights Dance Team in South Porcupine, ON. 

Over the years, Kelly won various Special Awards such as "Shining Star" "Happy Feet" and another for her "Winning Attitude" on stage. In addition to her success, she also taught dance for the Iroquois Falls School of dance and spent a lot of her time-off advancing her knowledge by taking workshops in many different cities from many different choreographers. 

At the tender age of 19, Kelly began her career in dental hygiene as a full-time hygienist. Above having a full-time job, Kelly has been teaching for the Step 'N Sound dance school and Stage Stars competition Team for 5 years. Her favourite discipline to perform and teach continues to be tap. 

"Dancing with the feet is one thing, but dancing with the soul is another."
