Established in 2014, DanZa Productions was created by Jamie Hartwell with the goal of offering fun, affordable, and top quality dance and fitness classes for people of all ages and fitness levels. It has since grown into to a new partnership between Jamie and co-owner Tereza Paraschivescu, offering not only Zumba but also specialty multi-ethnic dance classes, performances for special events, workshops and private lessons such as personalized wedding choreography.
Come dance with us today and see what the DanZa craze is all about!

What a pleasure it was to have Danza Productions into our PE classes for Zumba for the past 3 years. The instructors have been amazing and energetic and were able to make this a memorable experience for our grade 7 girls. We are looking forward to partnering with Danza Productions again this year. Jamie was easy to contact and flexible with the bookings around our complicated schedule
