Ensemble Performing Arts is a partnership of community-focused music and dance businesses that maintain individual identities while sharing resources to ensure their mutual success. We believe that a performing arts education is a lifelong journey and is appropriate for individuals of all ages and skill levels. While many of our teachers are equipped to serve students with collegiate and professional ambitions, and we celebrate our students with these meritorious goals, we are equally delighted to work with students of all abilities seeking to enrich their lives through the performing arts. Students can expect a fun and welcoming learning environment with quality teachers underpinned by individual assessments and personalized guidance throughout their learning journey. While our focus always begins with safe classroom practices and healthy technique, what follows thereafter depends on a students unique interests, abilities, and ambitions. We celebrate differences in both teaching styles and learning styles, and always work to find a good fit for our students among our faculty and programs.
