Our Kreative Kidz dancers are treated to the full dance education experience! They study dance from September through June and are given the opportunity to shine onstage at the Pullo Center with our older Technique Program dancers both in December and June. Our fully costumed dance concert is unlike any dance recital you may have seen at another studio. We pride ourselves on the quality and professionalism that is delivered in a state-of-the-art venue. Our performances have received many accolades over the years....just ask your neighbors!

The Pre-Dance Program at EMC is an age appropriate introduction to the fundamentals of dance for 3-8 year olds.

Students learn basic ballet, tap and jazz skills, stretching techniques, develop locomotor skills and explore their own movement possibilities while engaging in dramatic play, improvisation and creative movement.

Each class is limited to 10-12 students and is taught by 2 instructors. Miss Ciara, the Kreative Kidz Director, carefully plans each week's lesson and monitors the progress of the students through conferences with her staff as well as the parents.

It is our goal to make the young dancer's first on-stage experience as enjoyable as possible. The emphasis stays on the joy of dance and the development of self-esteem.
