EDE Company

Our dance company is an alternative to the highly committed, high-stress, high-demanding dance schedules you see today with many competitive dance companies. We believe that life balance is a high priority and that holidays, summers, spring, and winter breaks are for family time, not continuous hours at the studio. EDE Dance Company believes in the power of community outreach and giving back to others. It is our mission to empower young dancers through healthy and positive dance performance and leadership opportunities and to engage them in activities and experiences that will encourage the development of strong character, proactive involvement with their community, and effective leadership skills that will provide lifelong lessons to help them succeed in the future. Of equal importance is the dancer's development in areas of dance technique, participation in conventions, competitions, and performance opportunities, as well as community outreach. We strive and promise to provide an inspiring environment to build self-confidence and encourage each individual to be the best they can be in both dance and life!  You will always feel good about being a part of a company that focuses on building our dancers up and helping them to soar!  

Company members are required to take an hour of competitive instruction once a week for each company they are a part of. For the competitive Jazz and Contemporary companies, we also require those dancers to take a Company Technique class and a Leaps & Turns class consisting of an hour each. They may also take a non-recital class related to the style of the company they are placed in. That class could be Ballet, Lyrical, Jazz, or even Strength & Conditioning. The Hip Hop company is required to take a Strength & Conditioning class which would be an hour long, as well as a non-recital Hip Hop class.
