About

Recreational dance classes are described as a fun, low-pressure way to explore movement, build confidence, and make friends, and are described as perfect for dancers of all ages with a focus on joy, creativity, and self-expression. The studio provides classes in ballet, jazz, hip hop, modern, tap, West African, and contemporary for students ages 2 years to adult, and also has an in-house dance store, Volume Dance Wear, with leotards, tights, jazz pants, shorts, and dance shoes in all sizes and styles.

Volume Performance Center describes itself as a dynamic and family-centered dance studio that serves as a vibrant hub for all things dance. The studio emphasizes modest costuming and age-appropriate music that reflect values of integrity and respect for childhood, and it combines discipline, hard work, and fun in a well-rounded dance education. The environment is described as welcoming where families feel at home, and birthday parties at Volume are described as high-energy dance parties that are unforgettable and fully customizable. Volume’s special events include a show-stopping twist on Indy’s Dancing With the Stars, where local talent and Volume flair light up the stage.

Celebrating 17 seasons of making Indianapolis dance, Volume Performance Center started in Carmel, Indiana and later spent a decade in Nora’s Northview Mall before relocating to its current space in June 2025. The mission statement explains that the name “Volume” reflects a belief that dance should be bold, powerful, and full of energy, like turning the music all the way up, and that the studio aims to amplify every dancer’s voice, movement, and confidence on and off the stage. The mission also states that Volume Performance Center focuses on putting children first, encouraging creativity, self-expression, and letting kids be kids while maintaining high standards in both technique and character development, and that it is committed to nurturing both the art of dance and the mental well-being of every student who walks through its doors, building confidence, community, and character.
