“My children and I absolutely love Elite! I love seeing them develop and excel in dance, but at Elite, we are more than a member of a dance school— we’ve become a family.”
“And while they are teaching steps they are secretly teaching respect, team work, encouragement, kindness, confidence and self discipline.”
“Our little one loves going to class, learning all the fun new dances and she especially loves recital!”
“We LOVE the way the Elite professionals organize the recitals!”

From the reviews
We have loved it here at Elite Dance Studios! We have found that they really try and get to know your child and take the time to value your child’s growth and talent throughout the year! Overall we love Elite and will continue to grow with them! Thank you Ms.Emily and Ms.
PARENTS! Arts-based childhood development at it's finest... This is the first and, currently, ONLY studio AND staff certified by globally renowned Youth Protection Advocates in Dance (YPAD) in the entire state of Arkansas.
(2024 review) I just wanted to update my review of Elite Dance studios. My girls have now been dancing with Elite for more than 10 years. This studio is dedicated to keeping our children safe (YPAD certified) while loving your kid for who they are. The teachers are great and help instill a love for dance.
We LOVE the way the Elite professionals organize the recitals!! The timing and locations are always perfect, as well as the length of each recital! So nice that the performances are separated, each one was perfect. This was the best year yet!! Things that are perfect: The attitudes of the dance instructors!
Your first ballet class at Elite Dance Studios
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.
