This is a space where confidence blossoms gently, where friendships form with ease, and where learning new skills feels fun and uplifting. Every child is welcomed with kindness, included wholeheartedly, and celebrated for exactly who they are.

Cares About

Creating a space where your child can confidently shine, both on stage and in everyday moments. The focus is on celebrating each dancer’s unique strengths, fostering self-expression, and encouraging growth at their own pace. It’s about meeting your child where they are, building resilience, and ensuring they feel valued in a supportive, inclusive environment where every child is embraced.

Your child’s excitement to dance will grow each week as they eagerly step into class. Their coordination and listening skills will improve, and you'll see their confidence blossom, with pride lighting up their face after each class. Friendships will form naturally, their movements becoming more fluid and expressive, as they begin to truly enjoy the joy of dance and feel like they belong.

From the moment your child steps through the door, you’ll feel the warmth and friendliness of the Elite Active Dance family. You’ll love seeing your child light up with excitement every time they dance, building confidence, friendships, and new skills in a supportive and inclusive environment. The fun, engaging classes keep your child active, happy, and proud of their progress, all while learning in a nurturing space where kindness thrives.

Testimony

 "I was so nervous when we first started. My daughter was shy, and I worried she wouldn’t fit in or keep up. But from the moment we walked through the doors at Elite Active Dance, everything changed. The teachers were so kind and welcoming, and the other kids made her feel like she belonged straight away. Now she counts down the days to class, her confidence has grown so much, and I can see just how happy and free she feels when she dances. I’m so grateful we found this beautiful, supportive studio — it’s honestly been life-changing for both of us."

Classes are kept small to ensure your child feels seen, supported, and celebrated every step of the way. With two exciting on-stage performances each year, a personalised dance journal, rewards for effort and kindness, and optional private lessons for those who want extra support or a little more time to shine—this is so much more than just a dance class.

Testimony

 The Ruby Program has been life-changing for both me and my daughter — we started with no experience, and now we’ve gained so much confidence, made lifelong friendships, and share the joy of dancing together every week. The welcoming, supportive environment and passionate teachers make it such a special place, and it’s definitely value for your money! 

Kathryn Cook

  Do you offer makeup classes?
Yes! If your child misses a class, they’re welcome to attend a makeup class in another dance style. It’s all about keeping things simple and giving every child the chance to keep moving and stay connected.

What should my child wear for their first class?
Comfort is key. A t-shirt with leggings or bike pants is perfect for their first visit. Once they’re settled in, we’ll let you know about the class-specific uniform options—but there’s no rush.

What if my child is shy or has never danced before?
That’s completely okay. Many children begin with uncertainty—but in this nurturing, pressure-free space, they soon find their rhythm, their joy, and their voice. Every dancer is supported at their own pace.

Is there a performance?
Yes! Students have two opportunities each year to perform on stage. These are relaxed, joyful events designed to celebrate each child’s progress and boost their confidence—no pressure, just pride.

How do payments work?
Payments can be made easily via the parent portal or in cash at the studio—whatever’s most convenient for you. It’s designed to be simple and stress-free, so you can focus on your child’s joy and progress.

What age can my child start dancing?
We welcome dancers from age 2 right through to adults. Whether it’s little ones taking their very first twirls or older students deepening their technique and confidence, there’s a place here for every age and stage.

Do I need to stay during class?
You’re more than welcome to stay or wait nearby—especially for those first few classes. It’s all about creating a safe, supported environment where both you and your child feel comfortable every step of the way.

At Elite Active Dance, your child’s joy and sense of belonging means everything. That’s why we offer a 100% Happiness Guarantee for new students.
