ELEVATE
June 1 - 12

Elevate gives dancers the essential skills to move confidently in the air—climb, invert, and transition with control and artistry.

You’ll build real strength, learn safe technique in the air.

Walk in as a dancer.

Leave with aerial skills you can put on your resume—and a clear path to keep rising.
