Elite Dance Force - Canton, Michigan

Both my daughters dance at EDF. I couldn’t be more thankful for their dance family! The coaches truly care about the development of the whole child. The older girls look out for the younger ones and are the best role models. My girls have grown as dancers and as people.

Both of my girls have been dancing with Elite Dance Force since they were 2.5. EDF is so much more than dance classes - it’s family for my girls. Laura and her instructors/coaches really focuses on technique and it shows. Not only that, but they’re helping raise our children to be good humans. They teach them grace, balance, self love/self care, perseverance, humility and kindness. I’m also extremely grateful because their staff is very intentional in terms of age appropriate costumes, music and movement in their choreography. If you’re looking for a new studio, come check out Elite Dance Force! Their summer courses are a great way to see if it’s for you.

This is our first year at EDF. Before finding this studio, our only experience with dance class was at local rec center for a few weeks of ballet for my oldest. My girls are 4 and 6, and being a former dancer kid myself, I toured other studios before deciding on EDF. I chose EDF because of the rave reviews from other parents, the reasonable price, the class times worked with my family’s schedule (they even have morning preschool classes!!!!) and the combo rec classes offered to the younger students. This really sold me. My daughters are able to try two styles of dance in one class! For beginners, I feel it’s so important to expose my girls to different styles to figure out what they like best and EDF does this beautifully without parents paying for each class individually and having to be at the studio for an extended period of time. The teacher my girls have is amazingly friendly and so talented as well, and my children adore her.

When Covid-19 hit, and the studio had to shut its doors, the owner and teachers got a plan together quickly and started online classes. It meant the world to me that they did whatever it took to keep the classes going through such a difficult time when it would have been easier to cancel everything. It shows how much they love and care about their students and families, and how dedicated they are to their craft.

Thanks for a wonderful first year of dance school, EDF!

Elite Dance Force is the best!! Such a wonderful family studio. The instructors are amazing. My dancer has been there for 7 years and her 4 year old sister joined her last year too. The talent that comes out of EDF are award winning!!

My daughter is finishing her second year at EDF. I couldn’t be happier with how much she has learned and how much she has grown as a tiny dancer under Melissa’s instruction. Music, routines, and costumes are all age appropriate. You won’t see tiny dancers with their bare midriffs twerking here. The owner, Laura, is great at keeping everyone informed, and runs a well-organized and incredibly fun studio.

The coaches each take the time to evaluate, correct, and truly teach the true ways of dance. At Elite Dance Force coaches are not just coaches to me as a parent. They're helping me raise my kids. They give my girls opportunity to make life-long friendships. They learn to be disciplined by their coaches. They coach and teach to work with others and to be a proud , supportive, kind and respectful to team members. They learn to deal with disappointment, when they don't get that score they hoped for , or fell during a move they had practiced a thousand times, but yet they still get up and are determined to do their BEST next time...all because of the coaching staff at Elite Dance Force. Love the coaching staff at this dance studio and very happy we made the switch.

My daughter tried a class and was placed based on previous experience in gymnastics. When she started the class the girls bullied her based on her lack of dance experience. The coach stated that the girls were all friends. The owner got involved and it wasn't an great outcome. My daughter wanted to be left alone but she still approached her and that didn't go over well. The owner then stated that she was embarrassed by my daughter's behavior. Very unprofessional. These girls should be ashamed of themselves. She's only 9 years old.

Update: I requested a refund online and is not been given. I'm not going to argue with someone about what occured. My family doesn't lie. The response of the owner clearly paints a picture of the unprofessionalism and bitterness.

We love dancing at EDF. Our girls have been here 6 years now. All the staff and teachers are wonderful. Since COVID the teachers continued to offer dance classes through zoom that our girls have loved. We’re excited to get back to classes safety!
