Deborah Lundmark
Founder and Artistic Director

Deborah Lundmark ranks among Canada’s leading specialists in movement for the young with thirty years’ experience as both a ballet instructor and a supervisor of teachers-in-training. Ms. Lundmark founded the School of Canadian Children’s Dance Theatre in 1983, where she has trained the studio’s second generation of teachers, some of whom began as children in her Creative Movement classes. She has developed, refined and taught Ontario curriculum-related material over the past two decades.    

Ms. Lundmark played a key role in both the development and the delivery of the Toronto District Board of Education’s Drama/Dance Project, and frequently is called upon by educators to share her experience of dance and the child. She is Artistic Director and Senior Arts Education Outreach Teacher for the Canadian Children’s Dance Theatre performing company. Touring nationally and abroad with CCDT, Deborah has shared her expertise with teachers from Barrie to Beijing.
