Dance Classes That Make Your Soul Smile

Contemporary Dance Classes

At San Elijo Dance And Music Academy, we offer a variety of dance and music classes ranging from classical ballet to contemporary dance, from hip-hop to jazz and lyrical, ensuring that there is something for each child to enjoy. For ages 2 to 18 we have recreational and pre-professional contemporary dance classes tailored to every level of interest and ability. Our talented faculty members are experts in their fields, and we care about helping each and every student reach their individual goals while gaining self-confidence and a sense of achievement. At SEDMA, we believe that when children are having fun and enjoying their surroundings, they will thrive in their artistic education while developing lifelong skills of confidence, poise, strength, and self-expression. We strive for artistic excellence and precision performance, always with love, compassion, and fun.

In our contemporary dance classes, students are encouraged to strive for excellence through hands-on training with our team of qualified instructors. Most modern dance classes San Diego has to offer don’t prioritize a student’s growth and success in their studio. At SEDMA, every one of our students will experience individual training from experts who care about their development as a dancer. We host the most respected modern dance classes San Diego has to provide. If you or your child is interested in learning the art of contemporary dance San Diego based, SEDMA proudly presents such classes highly regarded in the dance community. Better yet, we’ve built a positive environment that uplifts our students, morphing them into the best they can be. Classes for contemporary dance San Diego are one of the leading ways for a child to improve their physical and mental well-being.

Conservatory Dance Classes

Starting in Ballet 2, our popular Conservatory Program provides additional performance opportunities for dancers to take their technique and developing artistry from the studio to the stage. The Conservatory dancers have most recently originated and performed well-received original excerpts of A Midsummer Night’s Dream, Coppelia, and Strike Up the Band to the marches of John Philip Sousa.

  • I danced here for 10 wonderful years….

    All the teachers here are dedicated to each student and helping them grow as a dancer. I loved every year I spent training at this studio. Every teacher has their own personal experience with dance, bringing inside knowledge and variety to each class. Overall, I recommend this studio to any dancer looking for a family of talented and inspiring dancers and teachers!

  • I have been impressed with SEDMA!…

    Our daughter has been dancing with the studio for years, and she has blossomed into an excellent dancer. What impresses me the most? Excellent teachers, excellent opportunities to dance with professionals, and the care the owners and faculty put into knowing each family that is a part of the studio.

  • This school is nothing like we have experienced….

    It is well managed and offers a wide range of classes. Best of all it gave my 3 children self confidence in their capabilities and the proper skills to perform at their recital.
