At AED Dance Studio, located in the heart of Richmond, Vermont, we strive to provide high-quality dance instruction in a loving, family-oriented environment. We believe that students of all ages can benefit from exposure to the performing arts. Our staff members teach the styles they love and therefore pass on to the next generation a joy and appreciation for movement and performance. We offer a variety of dance classes, including Ballet (tiny tots, beginner, intermediate, pre-pointe and pointe), Contemporary, Hip Hop, Jazz and Musical Theater. We also offer Summer Camps to give kids a chance to explore different styles, from tiny tots Princess Play to advanced instruction in Ballet, Hip Hop, Contemporary, Jazz, Musical Theater and Combo camps. At AED Dance Studio, we understand that childhood is fleeting and that our students may have interests and goals outside of the performing arts. We are thus proud to endorse our students to participate in activities other than dance, as well as provide them with the highest quality of instruction in the performing arts.
