Elite Dance Studio Fall Classes
Registration is open now for Fall session and full-year classes starting in September 2025. With so many classes and styles to choose from, Elite Dance Studio has the perfect spot for everyone in the family!
Hip-Hop
Kids’ hip-hop classes are offered for all skill levels and ages. The beginner program will get your kid lockin’, poppin’, breakin’, and more! Students will learn various hip hop elements and explore this groove-based style while dancing to popular music. They also offer Hip Hop Intermediate for those with previous dance experience.
Children who have previous hip hop experience and want an even bigger challenge can audition for year-long Hip Hop Performance classes that run from September to June. These classes allow students to have continuity in learning their genre of dance and provide the children opportunities to perform at dance festivals or other special events on top of the studio’s recitals.
Ballet
Pre-Ballet Classes let tiny dancers (2-4 years ) explore music, movement, balance, and basic dance steps alongside their favourite parent or caregiver. You can both enjoy learning together in this fun and interactive class!
Ballet Classes offer a fun introduction to basic ballet concepts. Dancers will work on flexibility, posture, coordination, and introductory choreography in a friendly environment. As children and youth progress, they will move from beginner to intermediate classes (including Level 2 & 3). Children and youth looking for more performance opportunities can also enrol in a Performance Team, which runs from September to June and provides students the opportunity to perform in studio events, dance festivals and studio recitals.
Ballroom & Latin
Ballroom dance is Elite Dance Studio’s signature style. They offer classes in all ten ballroom and Latin dance styles.
Junior Latin & Ballroom is the perfect introduction for ages 4-6. Young dancers will have fun learning the basics, including the Merengue, Chacha, Samba, Waltz, and Quickstep.
Latin & Ballroom Introduction & Beginner is a great step for ages 7+ to learn dance fundamentals in an upbeat and supportive atmosphere. With a focus on first learning the steps and then incorporating musicality and creativity, emerging dancers will develop their confidence. Classes will focus on teaching some of the most popular ballroom dances, including Cha Cha, Waltz, Quickstep, Rumba, and Samba. Partner work will be explored, but no partner is required for the class.
Competitor Ballroom Program
The Competitor Ballroom Program is available for children who have completed their Level 2 ballroom classes and wish to pursue more extensive training. Training 2 to 3 days a week, these dancers prepare to compete throughout Western Canada.
