In March, Dew announced that, 35 years after it started in the basement of her childhood home, Lisa鈥� School of Dance would have to shut down, the result of financial losses during the pandemic, that included unpaid accounts and a 65 per cent drop in student enrollment.

While the studio was able to access provincial pandemic subsidies, they weren鈥檛 enough to stay afloat, Dew said.

The final class will be held June 14.
