who we are

Luminesque Dance, owned and operated by Glow Studios Inc., is a heels dance training and performance program. We were founded in Vancouver, and operate in Vancouver, North Vancouver, Squamish, and Victoria.

We provide expertly-designed heels dance training and productions that explore and celebrate underrepresented expressions of self and sexuality.

We hope that by providing accessible space in our studios and on stage to safely express sexuality, agency, identity, power, and confidence - we work together to dismantle the sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia, fatphobia, ageism and ableism that makes us feel like we’re anything less than brilliant.

We believe that when we all radiate confidence in our bodies, minds and souls, we serve as shining examples that spread joy and empowerment to our loved ones and communities - thus making the world a better, brighter place for all. We affectionately call this positive impact “the glow”.
