The Young Artists program serves ages 10–18+ with a mix of classes across multiple styles and levels, with ballet as the foundation.

DCC Elevate is an exclusive extension of DC Dance LA for dancers ready for a pre-professional environment, equipping committed dancers with tools to succeed in the professional dance world or at the university level. The studio emphasizes building a strong sense of community among dancers and uses demanding schedules, challenging training, and grit to teach discipline that extends beyond the studio.
