MEET OUR 2026/27 EDA FACULTY!

Our studio is only as incredible as the people who pour their hearts into it—and we are so lucky to have such an amazing team of teachers joining us for another season.

Our 2026/27 faculty bring together professional experience, technical training, creativity, passion, and a genuine love for teaching and mentoring dancers. From ballet and tap to contemporary, hip hop, jazz, acro, musical theatre and beyond, our dancers are learning from artists who are dedicated to helping them grow both inside and outside the studio.

But what makes our faculty truly special?

They see the dancer, not just the steps.
They encourage individuality and artistry.
They challenge dancers to reach higher.
They create spaces where dancers feel supported, inspired and valued.

They remind our dancers that they are the art ♥️

At EDA, we believe our Early Beginnings Program is the most important one of all 🌸

Starting a little human on the right track takes care, intention, attention to detail, and expertise.

These early years are where confidence, coordination, musicality, and a love of movement begin to grow—and we take that foundation seriously.

Our youngest dancers deserve thoughtful instruction, a nurturing environment, and teachers who understand how children learn best. We’re proud to give them a strong and joyful start to their dance journey.

Registration is now open for our 2026/27 season with pre-school classes in

• Ballet & Tap Combo
