About the instructor

Murray started his dance training in university while studying Architecture.  His love of seeking out an understanding of things around him sparked a desire to pursue his education in dance and body movement.  More importantly was the urge to understand how to convey information in a fun and easy way. He continued training to be an instructor and spent 20 years at Let’s Dance in Ottawa.  Murray has taught at JPRA for nearly 30 years, and teaches out of the Walkley studio, home of Diamond Dance Studio (formerly Dance Town).
