Recreational

We offer recreational dance classes for students age 12 months–18. Our classes include creative movement, Mommy & Me, combination classes, jazz, tap, ballet, hip-hop, lyrical, contemporary, technique, strength & conditioning, and dance acro. All of our students have the opportunity to perform in two shows, a winter show and a spring recital. These classes are a great way for dancers to build confidence, learn new skills, and have fun in a supportive and upbeat environment.

Competitive

Our award-winning competitive company teams offer dancers the opportunity to participate in local, regional, and national competitions, as well as recitals and special performances throughout the year. Tryouts for our competitive team are held each July. Dancers gain valuable experience, build lasting friendships, and grow both technically and artistically in a supportive, driven environment. Please contact us for more information or to learn how to get involved.

Acrobatics

We offer both traditional tumbling classes and dance acro, giving dancers the chance to build strength, flexibility, and confidence in a fun and supportive environment. Students begin with foundational skills like backbend pull-ups and progress to walkovers, handsprings, and aerials. Classes are grouped by skill level, and dancers are encouraged to move at their own pace with proper technique and safety. Our program is a great fit for both new and experienced dancers looking to improve their acro skills.

Summer Classes

Our summer camps and classes are offered in two convenient three-week sessions, perfect for busy families who want flexibility without missing out on the fun. Dancers can explore themed camps like Taylor Swift, princess adventures, and pop star fun, while also building skills through focused technique, leaps and turns, and traditional class styles. Whether your child is just starting out or continuing their training, summer at TDE is the perfect way to grow, create, and stay active.

TDE Booster Club

Our Booster Club is a family-supported organization that helps make the dance experience even more memorable for our company team. From team celebrations and thoughtful treats to end-of-season banquets and special events, the Booster Club works behind the scenes to create joy, build community, and celebrate our dancers. With the support of generous families, we’re able to make each season feel extra special both on and off the stage.

Fundraising

We offer a variety of fun and creative fundraising opportunities throughout the year to support our dancers, from candy bar and trash bag sales to special events like Boo-Grams and Parents’ Night Out. These optional activities are a great way for families to get involved, build community, and earn credit toward things like costumes, tuition, and performance fees. It’s a simple and fun way to be part of the excitement.

The Dance Element Experience

My family loves this studio. Mrs. Lacey and all of the teachers work so hard with their dancers so they can achieve their goals. Day in and day out this staff is there for their dancers in more ways than just a dance teacher. They laugh with them, play with them, yet also push them. The Dance Element KC is my girls' home away from home and I couldn't ask for a better dance family to raise my girls with.

The Dance Element has a positive studio culture that inspires & encourages dancers to be their best. My dancer has grown so much with the help of the highly trained and professional TDE dance instructors. I would highly recommend The Dance Element to anyone, regardless if you are an experienced dancer or have no prior dance experience, everyone is welcome at TDE! We just love The Dance Element!

I can't say enough positive things about The Dance Element! TDE is so much more than a dance studio. It's my daughters' home away from home, a place for them to thrive and grow as students, dancers, teammates, and individuals. The recreational classes are amazing with an impressive number of styles being taught, and TDE's Company is something extra special. I would recommend TDE to any dancer and family. Five stars isn't enough.

It might sound cliche but The Dance Element is truly a home away from home. Lacey and her family and staff have made this dance studio more than that, they've made it a home for their dancers. The instruction and encouragement is unmatched. The skills and technique 👌 are truly tip notch!

I do not have enough words for how absolutely amazing The Dance Element has been to my special needs daughter. They are patient, accommodating, and treat her as their own. Whether typical or atypical, they just want everyone to have the opportunity to find love in dance.
