Dance with Confidence. Grow with Kindness. Belong at QM.
QM Dance Company is an independently owned and operated dance studio proudly located in Waterford, Ontario.
Founded by Quinn Morriss,
QM was created from a love of dance and a vision for a studio where every dancer feels welcomed, supported, challenged, and proud to be themselves. At QM, we believe being a great dance teacher means being more than someone who knows dance. Quinn believes in being both a dance teacher and an educator. Its an understanding that every child learns differently and meeting each dancer where they are. We take the time to understand each dancer, celebrate their individuality, and help them grow with confidence.
QM Dance Company is independently owned and operated and
is not affiliated with Waterford Dance or Waterford Dance Program.

Our Story
QM began with a simple dream,to create a dance home in Waterford. Quinn wanted dancers in the community to have the opportunity to experience what a true dance studio can feel like a space designed specifically for dancers to call their own. A studio with mirrors, ballet bars, proper equipment, space to grow, and most importantly, a place that feels like home.QM was created with the belief that every dancer deserves a place to learn and grow, and that a dance studio should be about so much more than what happens during class.
QM is about more than dance. It is a place where dancers can build confidence,
make friends, discover their strengths, and feel like they belong.
Some of you may know Miss Quinn from her teaching within the Waterford/Simcoe dance community. QM is a new chapter built with a fresh vision, a lot of heart, and a genuine love for the dancers and families who make our community what it is.

Our Programs
Recreational Dance
At QM, we believe every dancer deserves to feel valued, no matter their age or experience level. Our recreational program is taught personally by Miss Quinn, who believes teaching a two-year-old taking their very first steps in dance is just as meaningful as teaching a twelve-year-old who has been dancing for years. Every class is an opportunity to learn, grow, build confidence, and fall in love with dance.
Miss Quinn brings professional dance training, teaching experience, and certifications to every class, while continuing to learn and grow as an educator. Our goal is to provide dancers with knowledgeable, age-appropriate, and engaging instruction in a welcoming environment where every child can thrive.
Competitive Dance
At QM, we believe there is no cookie-cutter dancer. Every dancer brings something unique to the studio and something special to give to their team. Our competitive program is designed to challenge dancers, build strong technique and performance skills, and help each dancer discover their own strengths and individuality.
We believe a team is strongest when everyone is given the space to be themselves, contribute their own strengths, and grow together. Competitive dance at QM is about hard work and commitment, but it is also about confidence, friendship, teamwork, and creating something special together.
Summer Camp and PD Days
Our summer camps and PD Day programs are all about movement, creativity, nature friendship, and fun! Each program gives children the opportunity to explore dance and other activities in a welcoming environment while making new friends and creating special memories. Whether they are dancing, creating, playing, or trying something new, our goal is for every child to leave feeling happy, confident, and excited to come back.
PRIVATE LESSONS and WORKSHOPS
At QM, private lessons are for everyone! You don’t have to be a QM dancer to train with us. Our one-on-one lessons are open to dancers, cheerleaders, theatre performers, and athletes even hockey players! Whether you’re looking to improve technique, prepare for a performance or audition, build strength and flexibility, or simply gain confidence, lessons are tailored to you and your goals.
We also believe that great training can happen in more than one place. We encourage dancers to learn from different teachers, studios, and coaches and to seek out training that helps them grow. Whether you train at QM, another dance studio, or somewhere completely different, you are always welcome here. Our goal is never to replace where you call home, but to give you another place to learn, grow, and discover what you are capable of.
