• Schedule: Class options Monday–Thursday from 4pm–9pm, with a variety of 2–6 week camps, clinics, and sessions
Showcase Dance offers weekly performing dance classes for students ages 3–18 that perform twice a season, as well as mini sessions that provide a short-term dance experience with performance and skill development. Tumbling classes are available for ages 1–18, and the aerial program combines dance with circus arts such as aerial silks and flexibility training. Adult ballet uses beginner-friendly, low-impact movements to focus on flexibility and strength. Dance With Me classes invite caregivers and children to “groove and giggle together, creating memories that will last a lifetime.”
Summer programs include Camp Twinkle Toes for ages 3–6 with 4 weeks of summer dance classes in June and July, Summer Tumbling for ages 18 months–18 years as a 6-week session focusing on a wide range of gymnastics and acro skills, and Cutie Camps for ages 3–8 as 2-day themed dance camps offered during the day or evening in June and July. Additional summer training includes Competition Intensives for ages 5–18 as 3-day specialized classes for competitive level dancers and Summer Skill Technique for ages 5–18 as 4-week summer clinics to work on turns, leaps, and jumps. Competition Auditions are offered for ages 5–18 for the 2026–2027 competition teams. A free trial class can be requested.
Showcase Dance offers special needs dance classes and has a special needs team called Showcase Stars with younger and older groups. The studio emphasizes age-appropriate music and costuming, small class sizes, strong values, and affordable programs. The mission statement describes Showcase as “more than a dance studio,” “a community that feels like family,” and states that the studio focuses on both technique and mindset to “build confident kids, strong bodies, and kind hearts.”
The leadership team includes Owner and Director Morgan Vogtlin, who was offered the position as owner in 2021 and has taught all ages and abilities in multiple styles and competitive groups. Competition Instructor and Technical Director Bre Paulson began dancing at age 2, has trained in many styles, competed starting at age 9, was a member, choreographer, and captain of the Elk River Dance Team, and later coached the Elk River Dance Team for 3 years. Competition Instructor and Program Manager Gabriella Donnay has competition training in multiple styles and has gained multiple choreography and high point awards. Tumbling and aerial programs are led by Elizabeth Ensign, who has been involved in dance and gymnastics her entire life, has focused on tumbling, form, technique, conditioning, and flexibility, has coached competitive high school gymnastics and coached for gyms, and ran her own gymnastics program on a military post in California from 2003–2005 where the program grew to over 200 students.
Competition and performance instruction is also provided by Kacie Bartholomew, who trained in many dance styles, competed at numerous competitions, attended many conventions throughout the Midwest, earned a Bachelor’s Degree in Communications with an emphasis in Public Relations and a Minor in Dance from the University of North Dakota, and was part of the UND Dance Team and the North Dakota Ballet Company. Competition and performance instructor Addi (Addison) Geiser has been dancing since age 2, was a competitive dancer for 9–10 years at Showcase Dance Studio, and is experienced in jazz, tap, ballet, lyrical, and hip-hop. Competition instructor Sydney Weisenberger began dancing at age 3, began competing at age 10, has trained in multiple styles including pointe and kick, and has attended conventions including Radix, NYCDA, 24/7, and Jump. Competition and special needs instructor Gabriella McDonald began dancing at age 7 and teaches dancers with special needs on the team called Showcase Stars.
Bre Paulson has received many choreography awards, and her competition teams have taken numerous high point and judges choice awards. Gabriella Donnay has gained multiple choreography and high point awards. A parent testimonial from Stacey states that Showcase Dance “not only teaches dance technique, but the teachers also help the dancers to develop character,” that dancers are encouraged to “speak words of encouragement into each other's lives” and “pick each other up when they are down,” and that “the studio fosters a culture of connection and compassion.”
