Elevation Dance Center states that it will provide a friendly atmosphere and positive learning environment with knowledgeable and well-rounded teachers who value a strong technical foundation. The studio keeps class sizes small so staff can give individualized attention to each dancer.

Owner and instructor Sara Wardell received her BA in dance with a minor in business administration from Loyola Marymount University and has been teaching dance for over 20 years. She is a founding member and former director of the non-profit dance company Dynamics Performance Team in San Jose, CA. Sara is certified to teach ballet and jazz through Dance Masters of America and to teach Acro through Acrobatic Arts, and she has been active with the Dance Masters of California Chapter for over 10 years, including serving as President on the Board of Directors and serving on the DMA National Board of Directors for 4 years. A testimonial from Sara states that she is “forever grateful” to have been part of a dance studio where teachers and peers provided a positive influence and helped her grow as a dancer and an individual, and that opening Elevation Dance Center fulfills her dream of giving back the same experience of being part of a dance family.
