Biography

After travelling several times to the west of Canada, Thomas, Heidrun and Gina came to Nova Scotia in the year 2002. From the first moment they saw the South Shore, they decided that they would settle in the area and open a dance studio. On the 5th of April 2006 Thomas, Heidrun and their 5 year old daughter Gina immigrated to Canada.

 

As a teenager, Heidrun was very active in many sports and dance. In 1980 she began a three year education to become a state certified physical education (PhysEd) teacher in Germany.  She then completed another three years of training to become a professional, certified dance instructor. Heidrun worked in a large German dancing school for the next seven years where she taught Latin, Ballroom  and Jazzdance for all ages, as well as Performance Troupes and different kinds of exercise classes. After seven years of gathering valuable experience she opened her own dance school.

 

For the last 15 years, Thomas and Heidrun have managed their own dancing school.  The couple taught Latin, Ballroom, Salsa, Merengue, Mambo, Boogie-Woogie, Tango Argentino, Line Dance, Jazzdance, Hip - Hop and different Performance-Troupes. The dancers also appeared at many events where they performed Jazzdance and Hip–Hop.  In addition, their dance troups took part in many dance championships. Through their work as choreographers and trainers, they achieved, among other titles, German Vice Master status.
