After mastering the fundamentals of dance, our youth continue to develop their skills and have additional training opportunities as they progress through higher level classes. New students with previous dance experience may also be accepted to more advanced level classes after being evaluated by an instructor.
Level 1 students receive additional skills and training to the foundation established in their fundamentals class. Classes meet twice a week and are a combination of ballet, jazz and acro.
Level 2 students increase training from the level 1 class. Classes meet three times a week and are a combination of ballet, jazz and acro with the opportunity for invitation to pre-point. Level 2 dancers can be invited to train in our intern program (a leadership development program engineered to help our dancers on the path to becoming an assistant teacher)
At Level 3 students devote additional time to each style, having the opportunity to enroll in up to 4 different classes in a program devoted to training in ballet, jazz, acro and more. Students at this level also become eligible to audition for additional performance opportunities like the bi-annual production.
Intermediate and advanced dancers at levels 4 and 5 become more focused on their ballet training, still have the options to add additional technique, jazz, acro and begin developing the strength for advanced ballet technique in pointe classes or flips and tricks class in acro. Level 4 and 5 dancers may also be invited to receive additional leadership experience by interning with combo or fundamental classes.
We love Illusions! My daughter has been in dance at this studio for almost 5 years and it has gotten her through many tough times (middle school) and has not only taught her dance, but leadership, responsibility, teamwork, to keep trying, strength, courage, integrity, discipline and the list goes on… We love the teachers, the office staff, and our entire dance family.

My daughter has been at Illusion Dance Studios since January 2024 her growth has been amazing to watch, she was a beginner in Ballet Fundamentals. She's worked very hard in and out of studio and her discipline and passion for dance has allowed her instructors to challenge her and improve her skills.
Coming into 2026 she's starting Pointe 2 which isn't an easy feet to do(no pun intended) in 2 yrs, but with the support of her instructors at Illusion she's been able to push herself and grow and build her skills. The Variations class she takes in addition to her pointe and level classes has been a huge support to building muscle and strength to support her other classes and I believe it's made all the difference.
Thanks Illusions for your love and belief in our dancers and commitment to bring out the best in our students.

For our daughter, it all started with a birthday gift from our family friend for a week of dance at Illusions Dance Studio. For the 3+ years that has followed that 1st week has been pure magic. Our daughter has developed a talent and love for dance and to see her on a stage during a recital is pure joy and pride.
I am beyond thankful for Illusions Dance Studio helping my daughter become a beautiful dancer but also a confident young girl that strives to learn and challenges herself to do more. To see her growth goes beyond home and school lessons. It flows from the wonderful teachers that go above and beyond as dance instructors. They are mentors to each of their students and part of the village that is helping to build our youth not only in to beautiful and talented dancers, but also respectable and kind human beings.
