Inspiring Dancers Through Quality Classes & Supportive Community
At Elevé Performing Arts Center, right in the heart of Bloomington, dance is more than movement. It’s a place where kids, teens, and families come together to connect, grow, and build confidence through the joy of dance. We create a welcoming space where every dancer—no matter their age or experience—feels valued, supported, and encouraged to express themselves.
Our programs focus on more than steps. Whether in Ballet, Jazz, Acro, Pointe, Lyrical, Contemporary, Conditioning, or Private Lessons, dancers learn discipline, perseverance, and teamwork—skills that carry into school, friendships, and life. We teach with heart, helping each student discover how capable and creative they truly are.
For younger dancers, our Little Dancers and Kids Dance classes help build strong foundations. Through playful movement, tap, jazz, ballet, and acro, they develop motor skills, coordination, and confidence. As they grow into our Junior classes, students continue learning that effort and consistency can help them overcome challenges both in and out of the studio.
For teens, our studio becomes a place to breathe, connect, and belong. In Teen/Adult Ballet, Jazz, or Acro classes, students find more than exercise—they find a community that encourages them to keep pushing, to refine their skills, and to show up as their best selves. It’s a space where personal growth happens alongside technical training.
At Elevé, we believe dance supports the whole person—mind, body, and spirit. Every class offers opportunities for personal discovery, skill-building, and joy, from early childhood programs to advanced private coaching. No matter where you are in your dance journey, you’ll find a place here where you can grow, connect, and feel at home.
If you’re in Bloomington or nearby and want more than just a dance class, come visit Elevé Performing Arts Center. We welcome dancers of all ages who are ready to grow as artists—and as people.

My daughter loves dancing at Elevé. She’s really grown a lot as a dancer since dancing here and it’s a really positive environment. Definitely recommend!
We absolutely ❤️ Eleve! Our 7 year old daughter has been there for 3 years now, taking recreation classes, and she is having so much fun!! Thank you Eleve for making her feel so welcome and helping her learn as she grows!
My daughter has danced at Elevé for 7 year, starting in the recreational program and moving to competition. She has grown so much because of the wonderful teachers at Elevé. She is challenged, but not pushed beyond her limits. We have loved building a dance community through Elevé!
Elevé Performing Arts Center has been a part of our lives since our daughter took a week-long dance camp when she was 4. Not only did she have a blast, but we were blown away by the skills she learned in one short week (which far surpassed the skills she had learned the entire previous year at another dance studio). From there, we enrolled her in tap and ballet classes and very quickly after that decided to go join the competition teams.
For the past 10 years, our daughter has shown continual growth – not just in her technique and dance abilities but also socially and emotionally, too. Brittany Milan (owner) and all of her instructors are incredibly talented, supportive, and truly care about each dancer’s growth and confidence. The environment is positive, professional, and like a second home for our daughter. Elevé is a gem and we’re so grateful to be part of this amazing dance family!
If you’re looking for a place where your children can learn to dance and connect with others in a family-friendly environment, this is it! Their programs are well-structured, and are professional curriculums. What I like the most is how welcoming and family-friendly they are. As you get to know the people there, you will start to feel like part of a community, it makes Elevé so special.
Elevé Dance is awesome. Our daughter started out dancing with Elevé at her daycare though Transfiguration Lutheran Church and Brittany was so great and patient with the kids. She just started an Intermediate Hip Hop class this year and has been loving it even when joining halfway through the class. The instructor and her classmates got her up to speed quickly and she’s made some new dance buddies. Elevé has also attended many of our school events at Westwood getting the kids involved with dancing at playground nights. I would definitely recommend trying out a class if you think your child might be interested.
