We are dedicated to nurturing every dancer's development through a positive and progressive curriculum.

We gradually teach our students to explore the correlation between their bodies and proper dance technique, placement, and coordination – the natural navigation of the body. Erie Dance Conservatory offers individuals of all ages the most professional dance training available.

My girls have been dancing with Erie Dance Conservatory since 2012. They have learned so much more than dance. They have learned to work as a team, time management, dedication, work ethic, and responsibility. Both of my daughters have made the best of friends and we feel comfortable and welcomed walking into the doors of Erie Dance Conservatory every day." -Allison Price

Experienced, Qualified Faculty

Faculty members are extremely versatile and experienced in their respective styles of dance. Their credentials range from long time dance students to bachelors and masters degrees in dance education. 

Faculty

Erie Dance Conservatory has enriched my daughter’s life immeasurably. We are so impressed with the quality of instruction our daughter receives there. The growth that we have witnessed in her is truly amazing. She has blossomed and continues to do so. Through the challenging yet gentle instruction, she has developed a self-confidence, charm, strength, discipline, and grace that benefits her in every-day-life.
 Furthermore, Sarah and her faculty are incredible!! They have a passion for dance that they take great joy imparting upon their students. They also help bring out the best in each student, encouraging each to work toward his/her full potential in a structured yet positive way.
EDC is not only a dance school, but also a second home to our daughter. The other students and teachers feel like her extended family and she loves going to every class.
 We are excited and look forward to watching our daughter grow year-to-year- in her talent and love for dance. We are extremely grateful to have a school of this caliber in our community.” -Michelle and Jeff Marzka

Our daughter, Madeline, began taking ballet from Erie Dance Conservatory when she was five years old. She took ballet for three years, and it was the best experience! The classes are structured and fun, the costumes are beautiful and tasteful, and the instructors are professional and kind.  When we moved to Cincinnati in the summer of 2018, one of our biggest challenges was finding a dance studio and ballet instructor that would compare to EDC. We had hoped that Madeline would be able to stay with EDC for her entire ballet career. Miss Sarah's dedication and expertise have been a huge part in helping Madeline discover her love for ballet, and has given her the foundation to thrive in her ballet career. We have found a new home at the Cincinnati Ballet, and even though we miss Miss Sarah and our EDC family so much, we know that Madeline will continue to excel because of the experience she had in her first three years at Erie Dance Conservatory.
