Get To Know VSD
VSD was created by Chelsey Carberry to cultivate more dance opportunities in the Peterborough area for people-- regardless of their age, skill level, or financial situation. To put it simply, VSD wants to provide everyone with the opportunity to dance!
Motivated to provide an opportunity for new and experienced dancers to explore their art , Chesley quickly realized her love for dance went far beyond the art itself-- it was for the community. In response to this, VSD was built as a way for all dancers to have more versatile and accessible training.
VSD is also a space for performers, as Chelsey values the excitement live performances can bring. With a collection of shows already presented by VSD, Our studio is your best source of gaining more chances in the spotlight!
Chelsey is ecstatic to share everything she's gained and learned so far on her dance journey- most importantly, she's eager to construct a family that can help spread her message of self-empowerment through dance. Join us and take a step towards learning more about yourself as a creator, performer, and dancer.
