Dancers' Studio West

Dancers Studio West was established in 1980, by Artistic Director Elaine Bowman and Director General Peter Hoff to create a dance community in Calgary. Bowman taught extensively and established a festival of Alberta choreography known as Alberta Dance Explosions and a Young Artist in Residence Program to teach emerging choreographers about technical stagecraft. They both were instrumental to the development of contemporary dance in Calgary, as well as being founding members of the CanDance Network of dance presenters. Contemporary dance in Calgary is indebted to their vision (1980 2000), as well as to the dedication and hard work of Artistic Director Michle Moss and Executive Director Damon Johnston (2000 2005), Programmer Bobby Todd (2005 2006) and Artistic Director Brian Hansen (2007 2008) who through tremendous effort, nurtured and sustained Dancers Studio West and its celebrated programming.
