From the reviews
This year was my daughter’s first year switching to Elements for dance - a new studio, new teachers, new dancers. She found herself in a place where she felt comfortable and that brought out her creativity, but still felt so new and unfamiliar at the same time.
Megan, Bruce, and Elements Dance Academy are truly something special. I am so grateful for the years my daughter spent dancing here, especially through the company class. What stands out most to me is that Megan teaches so much more than dance.
She has finally found her dance tribe. All the difference was in finding an academy versus a studio. A dance school to train her body, mind, and soul. She excelled in ballet this year while building leadership in Company Class.
We have been part of this dance studio for 5 years, and it has been such a positive experience for our family! The teachers, the community, and the support the dancers receive are truly wonderful. We have loved watching our daughter, grow not only as a dancer, but also in her confidence and self-esteem.
Your first ballet class at Elements Dance Academy--Platte City, MO
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.
