Recital Highlights
Encore Dance Academy’s first recital was a great show! We are SO proud of all of our dancers. Each and everyone truly shined on stage! It was beautiful to see so many dancers and cheerleaders smiling and happy all because of their love of dance and Encore Dance Academy. Our younger classes were eager to get on stage for their first time, and our older dancers were eager to show off what they have learned all year. A true love for dance exuded from the stage from both dancers and teachers. It showed that EDA dancers not only have fun, but are the best technically trained and well rounded students in the area. The EDA family is one of a kind, and our parents, students, and staff had a weekend to remember! Thank you to everyone who contributed to making our first recital so memorable, magical, and exciting! We look forward to future recitals knowing that we left the audience wanting more-- an Encore!
Encore Dance Academy would like to invite you to become a part of our growing family. Our goal is to teach and inspire students to be the best they can be both in and out of the classroom! We are so confident that our curriculum and programs are the best that we offer a free trial class to any first time students to see if Encore is the right fit for you! Stop by the studio during summer classes, or in August to set up a free trial night, or sign up for our 6 week summer session! Fall registration begins August 2nd. We hope to see you soon!
We pride ourselves in creating a magical and fun environment for our youngest students to learn in. Your child will learn confidence, knowledge of proper technique and terminology, and be ready and eager to perform! Our older, or more experienced dancers, know that EDA is the place to be for top notch training in Delaware. With 15 first place finishes in our first year, and winning the State Championship for hip-hop- EDA has proven to be a strong force at competitions (teams offered for ages 4-18). Along with competitions some of our students also volunteer to perform at elderly homes, and participate in parades. A positive environment to learn and grow in is the key to success.
In addition to our current teachers, Encore Dance Academy would like to welcome Miss Sarah to our teaching staff! For more on Miss Sarah please check out her biography on the staff page.
