Dance Contempra
Centre for Dance Education

Dance Contempra Centre for Dance Education is an established dance studio located in Peachtree City, Georgia. The studio continues to serve its original purpose as a leading studio in the Metro Atlanta area, offering an array of dance styles for the past nineteen years. Dance Contempra offers a wide range of classes for students ages 3 and older. These dance styles include: Classical Ballet, Contemporary Ballet, Hip-hop, Jazz, Lyrical, Modern, Musical Theater, Aerial Silks, Acro, and Tap, as well as an Adult Ballet Fit program. Our dance philosophy is that the strongest dancers train in a variety of dance styles. Our program encourages that! Our faculty and staff are qualified and trained in their field of expertise. Many of our faculty have danced with professional companies and strive to help each student reach their short-term and long-term goals. We focus on building the dancer’s technique while also developing personal relationships with the student to further aid in their career needs. Dance Contempra places its focus solely on the students. Performance opportunities are available for all students to participate in. These opportunities include the winter and spring performances produced by Dance Contempra and community-based performances such as Jazz on Tap, Ballet Fest, and other arts organizations through school programs. Each show is performed entirely by our student body, including the lead roles. Dance Contempra aims to develop an atmosphere that encompasses both physical ability and love for dance. We are most proud of our seventeen years in the business and the students who have been a part of Dance Contempra.

In our 25 years of business, we have found that students who are taught in a stressful environment view dance, as well as instruction and performing, in a negative manner and ultimately end their dance careers prematurely. It is because of our positive and hands-on approach to instruction that we “graduate” more students of dance than competing studios in the area. Dance Contempra’s teaching philosophy encompasses both the physical and academic aspects of dance. We understand the importance that society places on college degrees and push our students to consider all options for pursuing a higher education. We pride ourselves on the number of our students who have moved on to dance, teach, and perform as professionals in the community. Our philosophy encourages both the parents and the students to understand the benefits of dance within the studio and outside of it (including improvement in posture, poise, confidence, mind-body coordination, flexibility, and discipline, to name a few). We strive to bring positive dance education to all ages and genders as a way to aid in the students’ success through all aspects of life.
