Amelia had a clear mission in mind when founding Elevate Dance Academy, to provide a growing school where each student is provided with the highest standard of training in an encouraging and positive environment. This will enable each student to achieve their full potential. Some children attend Elevate Dance Academy purely as a hobby and exercise, we help these children develop their social skills, confidence and enjoy a fun approach to learning and training.

Dance mum
“Our daughter has been with Elevate for around 1 year now, having previously taken ballet lessons with Miss Amelia through Babyballet. We were delighted that she could continue with such a fantastic teacher. Our daughters progress has been amazing this year, passing her preliminary ballet IDTA exam with distinction, and her tap and street dance continues to thrive also!! Its clear that Miss Amelia sets high standards for her students, and finds the perfect balance of professionalism and fun in her lessons. Our daughter loves her classes with Elevate, and is excited to add Modern and Jazz and Lyrical Dance soon! “
