Sara Wood
Sara began dancing at a very young age, just outside of Toronto, and has not stopped since. She grew up as a competitive dancer and has competed both locally and internationally. This is where she fell in love with the art of performing and that feeling of being on stage. Through this experience, Sara began her professional career at just 13 years old. She has since travelled all over the world performing for multiple corporate galas and events (Miami Pride 2018, 2019, Dundas Square Tree Lighting, Sick Kids Hospital, CLIA Awards) music videos, television (So You Think You Can Dance Canada), theme parks (Universal Studios City Walk, Canada’s Wonderland and Ontario Place), and cruise lines (Royal Caribbean and Celebrity Cruises).
With over a decade of experience working with and choreographing for dancers of all ages and levels of experience, she brings this knowledge to her teaching and adjudicating. Sara has taught and choreographed for dance studios’ competitive and recreational teams, Workshops and Dance Intensives, the Toronto, York and Durham District School Boards, as well as York University (Dance Energy Dance team), Canada’s Wonderland and Celebrity Cruises (Eclipse Holiday Show). Sara also takes her love for performing and shares it with her casts as a Rehearsal/Install Director for Celebrity Cruises and Canada’s Wonderland.
Sara has received her associate certification from BATD in ballet, acro, modern, and stage (Tap), attended the BFA Dance Program at York University, and has received her teacher certification with Sugar Foot Therapy and PBT (Progressing Ballet Technique).
