❤️ Meet Ms. Shannon

Every story has a beginning. And every beautiful story eventually turns the page.

For 61 seasons, Forrester School of Dance has been part of the lives of generations of Cape Breton dancers — a story created by my mother, Dr. Eileen Forrester, and built on an extraordinary love of dance.

For more than 35 years, I had the privilege of teaching alongside my mom. Dance was our passion, our creative language, and such a special part of the life we shared.

Losing her has changed me in ways I never could have imagined. And now, I’m learning how to turn the page.

To honour what she created.
To find my way.
And to write the next chapter.

Because of everything I’ve created and explored over the years, one thing that’s become evident….dance remains my heart and soul. 💕⚔️

And perhaps the most beautiful part of this next chapter is that I don’t have to write it alone.

It will be written by the little ones taking their first steps, the dancers finding their confidence, the adults returning to something they once loved, the friendships made, and the lives shaped along the way.

We aren’t simply building dancers. We’re helping shape the people they will become.

So this September, I invite you to become part of our next generation. Our next chapter. Our next story.

Maybe your child will be part of it.
Maybe you will.

Come dance with Ms. Shannon. ❤️

61 seasons behind us.
A new chapter ahead.

Your story could become part of ours. ✨

❤️
