Hello, and welcome to Wonderland Elite's: Mad Hatter Performance Company!

Dream It
Our dance studio was founded in 2022 out of a pressing need for a studio in the area that prioritizes positive child development, dancer safety, and the importance of good sportsmanship, in addition to technique and ability training, as our founders recognized a local gap in the market.
As a result, they decided to create a space that fosters a positive, nurturing environment where young athletes can thrive as performers and individuals on and off the stage. Our studio is committed to developing well-rounded dancers who not only excel in their craft but also learn important life skills such as teamwork, discipline, and perseverance.

Build It
Therefore, we spent most of 2023 building our program from the ground up… Now, in 2024, we are SO excited to share that our studio will proudly be offering a variety of fun and affordable classes for dancers of all ages and abilities, including ballet, lyrical, tap, jazz, musical theatre, hip-hop, choreography/creative dance expression, pom dance, acro dance, and so much more!
We plan to offer everything from beginner to advanced weekly classes, local performance opportunities, private instruction, dance workshops/intensives, and even birthday parties (with creative art classes and competitive team options coming soon!)

Grow It
We promise to stay true to our core values by emphasizing the FUN in FUNdamentals by teaching proper technique, use of terminology, and creative choreography in an age-appropriate, engaging, and effective way within a positive and nurturing environment to help all dancers reach their full potential… Does this all sound essential for a dance studio environment to you?
We would absolutely love to have your dancer join us! So be inspired and experience the difference at… The Mad Hatter Performance Company today!

Program: Levels & Classes…
Twinkle Toes - Intro-to-Dance
Our Intro to Dance class is our first independent class for little ones without their parents' participation and is recommended for young athletes between the ages of 1.5-3.
During the class, students will learn basic ballet and tap movement and terminology through weekly themes, fun songs, age-appropriate creative choreography, and the use of props and costumes. Most classes begin with a storybook and end with a brief five-minute craft. Activities throughout the hour constantly change to hold onto those short attention spans and inspire a love of dance for years to come while allowing your little one to build motor skills, grace, and confidence, mental focus while increasing their strength, balance, and agility, burn energy, make new friends, and, most importantly, have FUN!
