From the reviews

This is my daughters 3rd year at this studio. She initially started classes as a young elementary student (6) so finding a studio that provided age appropriate costumes, tasteful choreography and clean music was very important to me as a parent. Elation has exceeded my expectations.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ My daughter originally danced with another company, but when they didn’t have room for her, my sister recommended Elation. From the very first class, the difference in teaching was abundantly clear.

★★★★★ — Nicole, Sep 2025

My daughter has been dancing with Marija for 9 years. Marija is a great teacher and her studio is well run and organized. She also is very conscious about being age appropriate with costumes for competitions and recitals, which I appreciate.

★★★★★ — Melissa, May 2019

I will forever and always be an Elation fan! All the teachers and girls there have become a family for me. After graduating and now dancing in college I carry every piece of advice, every technique class, and every correction with me currently and in my future professional dance career!

Your first ballet class at Elation Dance Center

Nervous about walking into your first class? Almost everyone is — and a good studio expects beginners, whether your dancer is five or you're returning at fifty. Here's what to know. What to wear: comfortable clothes you can move in, with socks or bare feet; a leotard and tights are nice if you have them, but not required, and pointe shoes are years down the road — never day one. What to expect: class usually starts at the barre with slow, simple movements to warm up, then moves to the center — follow along, copy the teacher, and don't worry about getting it "right" the first time. Arrive early: come 10–15 minutes ahead to change, find a spot, and let the teacher know it's a first class so they can keep an eye out. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.

Ballet is for every age and every body. If you're returning from an injury or have a health concern, mention it to the teacher before class so they can offer modifications.
