For our senior dancers, Dance Edge is a place of passion, growth, and belonging. Whether they’re dancing recreationally or chasing elite performance goals, our senior programs are intentionally designed to empower each dancer as a confident, expressive, and technically strong artist.
This is where work ethic meets joy, friendships deepen, and futures take shape—on and off the stage.
Every dancer is seen: We understand the unique challenges and transitions of teenage life. Our teachers meet dancers where they are—building trust, confidence, and clarity.
Every dancer is celebrated: From leadership roles to personal breakthroughs, we spotlight progress, effort, and artistry. There’s no “one path”—only your dancer’s path.
Every dancer is challenged: Senior students engage in goal-driven, technically rich training. For those in our Performance Troupe or Extension Programs, expectations are high—but always balanced with care.
Every dancer is cherished: Our community culture is uplifting and inclusive. Senior dancers know they are valued not just for what they achieve, but for who they are.

Our Jazz classes are energetic, technique focussed, and allow students opportunities to improvise and learn about their own creative process in choreography.
Our Tap classes are modern with a technical foundation. Students can build a sound understanding of musicality using the floor to create their own beats and rhythms with their feet.
Our Classical Ballet classes are progressive and comprehensive. Students receive an anatomical approach to their technique and a student-centered method allowing them to reach their own full potential while progressing with the class.
In this fun and dynamic class your child will develop strength and flexibility as they explore the variety of shapes their bodies can create. Through our Acro program, students are given the opportunity to participate in strength and conditioning classes to further develop their skills and refine their strength. It is advised that acro is taken alongside a dance style like jazz, lyrical, contemporary or ballet for best practice.
The Lyrical style, like most, uses ballet technique as a foundation for free movement. Students will learn how to extend their balletic skills and explore musicality and emotion further.
Our Contemporary classes are carefully constructed and provide students with the opportunity to explore modern movement, improvisation, & learn about their own creative process.
Dance Edge offers Song and Dance, as well as Speech and Drama classes. The separation of these styles allows Musical Theatre skills to be refined based on the student's interest in the genre.
For younger students, Jazz Funk is offered as a blend of Hip Hop and Jazz foundations. Our Hip Hop classes keep this popular genre age appropriate and current. Individuality is encouraged throughout this comprehensive program and students are given opportunities to improvise and create their own pieces.
