We love Elite Academy, our daughter is in the doodlebugs class for 2-3 year olds. I love that they offer classes for the little ones starting at age 2, not very many studios offer classes starting that young. She comes out of every class so happy with the biggest smile on her face! Their schedule is so accommodating with classes in the am and pm. All dance fees are straight forward and easy to understand. All studio news is readily available and consistently communicated. The teachers are so patient and kind, I know my daughter is getting the very best! We love our Elite Academy family!!

This has been our first year dancing at Elite. It is my daughter’s first year doing a competition team and she has loved every minute of it. We love every teacher there and they do an amazing job at challenging my daughter. She always wants to be at dance and has asked to take extra classes. Elite offers a great schedule with the possibility of additional classes for all levels. I love that Elite has a friendly atmosphere. My daughter really feels at home. She has made amazing friendships and has so many examples of what she can grow to be. Thank you for being such a great studio!

This place is the worst for young kids! There is one teacher assigned to about 20 kids. Ive witnessed children leaving class and the teacher not even noticing! Ive also witnessed parents that were late picking up their kids and the teacher not noticing the 3-year-old wandering around trying to find her mom. The teacher is extremely unapproachable; she never smiles. My child has been attending class from 5 months and the teacher has never introduced herself or even approached me. If you want your kid to be looked after then this is not the place. If you want your kid wandering the halls, the parking lot, or even Redwood Road without adult supervision, then this is the place for you! They say they open at 4:00, but good luck getting anyone to answer the phone, staff the front desk, or answer an email.

Our daughter is in her 2nd year at Elite, and we couldnt be more happy with her progress. She takes 3 classes a week, and it is super affordable! Her teachers have so much patience and love for their students. The choreography is great, the costumes are adorable and we just love Elite!

Love the preschool! Love the teachers! They go on fun field trips every month and get to learn so much. It is a 3 hour long pre school which is great for prepping them for kindergarten. My sons tells me everyday he has the best preschool!

We have had our 2 year old enrolled in Elite Acadmey for since fall 2018. She LOVES coming to dance. We had tried another dance studio with a mommy and me class, but it was a distraction for her having Mom with her and this is a much better fit. She daily asks if it’s the day to go to dance. Her teacher has taught her so much and she adores her classmates. The highlight for her was her Christmas recital. She’s learning so many skills and truly has a passion for dance. The best decision we made was to enroll her and I couldn’t recommend Elite Academy more highly to anyone.

We absolutely love Elite Academy! My daughter has been there for about 4 years now. My daughter is on a competition team and my little guy is in the Boy Power class. To say that Elite has built my daughters confidence would be an understatement! Shes come from a shy and timid girl to one who loves to be on stage with her friends and challenging herself with a solo. The teachers at Elite truly care about the kids and strive to challenge them and see them succeed. I highly recommend Elite Academy!!!

The studio owner is never there, and when she is she comes in a fur coat and starts criticizing everyone. All they care about is money and i personally know 7 girls going to THERAPY because of this place! This studio is a confidence destroyer and the owner is the most vile woman to ever cross the face of the earth! I was told I was a horrible dancer every time I went to dance by multiple teachers. I know that 12 of the girls are leaving the studio this year, and no one one with higher than an eighth grade education teaches here. Unless you want to pay for years of therapy, I strongly suggest not going here.

Absolutely putrid studio. The owner, Leslie, is a vicious woman who was sent to Earth to torture the minds of young girls. All positive reviews on this studio were made upwards of 6 years ago, this is because the studio owner has been mentally checked out for so long. Loyal customers to this dance company are now leaving because of how awful every teacher is at this studio. I have never seen such disorganization in my life. There are hundreds of better, cheaper, and more wholesome studios to go to where your child can grow and develop. My daughter was sent to therapy after her time at Elite. I will continue to send parents somewhere elsewhere than Elite because of the absolute horrible treatment my daughter received here.

We love Elite Academy! Been coming here for 2 years now and even though we moved out to West Valley recently, we find it totally worth it to make the commute for dance and tumbling classes for our 4 year old.

My daughter is participating in her second season of All-Star cheer at Elite, and we LOVE it. The coaches are amazing! Everyone involved in the cheer program is truly committed to seeing the girls thrive and be successful. One of the things I love most is that they really focus on positivity at all times. Our whole family loves being part of the Elite family and would recommend this studio to anyone who wants to see there child succeed at cheer or dance.

Elite Academy ROCKS! We have been part of the family for FIVE years in the All Star Competitive cheer program. When we started, my daughter could barely do a cartwheel and is now doing things I never thought she could. I love the staff and we will definitely be here a long time. Proud to be part of the two time National Champion Hot Tamales Team of Elite Academy Devils.

I just started dancing at elite academy on a competition team, and I love it! The teachers are great, everyday I am excited to go to dance. They have taught me so much in the short time I have been there, its a really great studio. Every teacher is very professional and posotive, and make sure you are a well rounded dancer. I hope I dont leave elite for a long time. (:

My daughter started dancing with Elite 7 years ago at the age of 2. I was so excited to find dance classes for her that were not Mom and tot. At her first performance I was amazed, not so much that my 2 year old could remember an entire dance but the company dancers and cheerleaders were absolutely incredible. My daughter has now been on a company dance team for 4 years and she loves every single minute she spends at the studio. The staff are amazing and teach a strong work ethic. I love that at the age of 9 my daughter knows how to work really hard because in the end it pays off! As long as she is dancing we will be at Elite!

Overall they get the results, but they tell you upfront the coaches for cheer have too many girls to give you proactive feedback. Unless you text a coach to find out how your girls are doing you wont hear or see anything until the day of competition. I expect if I am committing to the time and cost of competitive cheer I deserve to hear how my kids are doing.

I have one daughter on a company team and another in the recreation classes. They have been dancing at Elite for over 4 years now and they love it. In addition to all the usual benefits of dance and movement, it has been wonderful for their self-esteem. Thank you to all the wonderful dance teachers!

I started my daughter at a different dance studio. She cried every time I took her and never enjoyed herself in class. We took a break and started again- this time at Elite Academy. She has loved every minute of it. I am so glad we found this studio. The teachers and staff are very positive, encouraging, and motivating. Ive watched her transform from shy and introverted to an outgoing little performer. She has learned so much and is now on a competition team. She is learning team work, dedication, and responsibility as well as dance skills. My youngest daughter is now dancing there as well in the 2 year old class and wishes she could go every day! Love Elite!

My daughter has just recently joined the Elite Academy Competition Team.Why Elite?When we looked around and talked with other studios, we felt that Elite had everything that we were looking for for my daughter to grow as a dancer.Elite has trained instructors that help the dancers be the best they can be. The dancers are challenged to excel while loving to be at each and every one of their classes.The studios are large and spacious with tons of room for the dancers to move. There are also many varieties in dance that are offered at Elite for every type of dancer.I would highly recommend Elite Academy to anyone who is looking for a competitive dance team, a recreational dance class or for those that are interested in cheer.Elite has it all!!!

Elite Academy has changed my daughters life. Her love and committment to Elite has blown my mind. She never tires of her time there, and often wants to go early, and stay late, just to hang around with all of the people she loves so much. Stephanie, Charity, Amanda, Morgan, as well as all of her peers on her team, and other teams.. Everyone she has spent time with has impacted her so much.She started at Elite unable to do a cartwheel just last year, and can now do a round off double back hand spring. Thats a great feat for an 11 year old that is 58.The encouragement she has has been second to none. She has accomplished things that I, as her mother never even thought possible.We love Elite Academy!

Last year we were at another dance studio located just down the street from Elite Academy. We had multiple issues with them. This year we decided to try Elite Academy...we absolutely love it. My daughter has 4 classes there and loves them all. Plus the facility is very nice. I would recommend this place for anyone looking for a great fun dance experience :)

My daughters have both trained at Elite Academy and have loved every minute of it. My cheer daughter is now a varsity cheerleader in her Sophomore year - and she credits Stephanie, Charity and Hillary for helping her develop her talents and giving her the desire to continue after All-Star Cheer. My dancer daughter started at Elite when she was 11 and she has been blessed with AMAZINGLY talented coaches - Amy, Arial, Melissa, Molly, Noah, Chelsea, etc. On top of all of the fantastic coaching - Leslie has made Elite Academy a FAMILY and she has helped bring serving others into both of my daughters lives. THANK YOU Leslie!!! Yall are amazing!

We have been at Elite for a few years doing recreation classes off an on. Did Jazz line for 2 years to help prepare for Company. Made Small Xtreme this last year and have been very happy and pleased with our experience. My daughter has learned so much in just 1 year of doing company, it amazes me every time I watch her. She loves her teacher NaCole and all of the other girls on her team so much, which makes going to dance fun along with all the hard work they do!!!I feel this has been a great experience for her as well as myself as a mom. Competitions are fun and rewarding and I love watching the girls grow as a team each time they perform. Ive met amazing other moms and just feel happy about that. Leslie, the owner of Elite Academy is always responsive and helpful with our needs and always says hi to the girls and moms and cares about them very much! Overall Elite Academy is like a family and we are very happy to be a part of their company dance teams. We love Elite Academy and are very happy there!

It offers a wide range of classes but it was very disappointing that they are mostly geared at girls.
