About Our Dance Family!
Igniting Passion and Building Community Through the Art of Dance.
At Elevation Academy of Dance, we don’t just teach dance—we nurture passion, celebrate individuality, and create a second home rooted in love. Here, every dancer becomes part of a close-knit family, where support, encouragement, and belonging are at the heart of everything we do.
Specializing in youth dance, we combine strong technical training with the joy of self-expression, all within a warm, uplifting environment. Our 9-month season is a shared journey of growth, friendship, and discovery, culminating in a magical year-end recital at the Montrose Pavilion. This special event isn’t just a performance—it’s a community celebration of every dancer’s dedication, courage, and heart.
Whether your child is stepping into their very first class or dreaming of center stage, EAD is where their story begins. Join us, and find more than a studio—you’ll find a family, a community, and a place where dancers don’t just learn—they rise, together.

What Families Are Saying About EAD!
Victoria Olson
Dance Parent
My daughter is in her second year of dance and loves it here. The studio is very well run, and the communication with parents is great. Teachers are friendly and awesome!
Theresa Kahl
Absolute Dance & CWPAC
As a studio owner and dance mom in Grand Junction, CO, I’d send my kids and students here if they ever moved to Montrose or the area. Kaleigh, a former student of mine, always showed the passion and love for dance along with the eyesight for quality and safe technique and training. Montrose is fortunate for her to take this “leap” of faith and open up her own studio and know it’s going leaps and bounds
Matti Niksch
Dance Parent
Voted Montrose’s Favorite Dance Studio for good reason!! My daughter has been with EAD since the beginning; and while competition isn’t her thing-acceptance, expression, and inclusivity are!! Ms. Kaleigh strives to teach respect, responsibility, and self love as well as technical dance. Don’t take my word for it…try out a class and watch your kid thrive as well!! We are grateful for EAD!!
Sharon Rogers
Dance Parent
We love EAD!! This is such a well ran studio with amazing staff. The teachers are all so welcoming and very encouraging to the students. They make you feel like family and want it to be a big dance family. My daughter has enjoyed her first year with EAD and we look forward to many more years of dance with them.
