At Dance FX 

Dance FX, owned by Tanya and Donna Ogden, established in 1999, is dedicated in providing high quality instruction in all facets of dance.  We are committed to providing a progressive well rounded curriculum of instruction in a positive friendly environment. We cater to students age three through adult, beginner to pre-professional level. 

Students may study a variety of styles taught by our well diversified, professional teaching staff. Two personal characteristics of Dance FX are small classes sizes to ensure positive, personal instruction and offering the traditional combination class of ballet, tap and jazz, as we feel it is important to become a skilled, well rounded dancer in more than just one area of dance.

Instructors assess student strengths and areas for growth and apply teaching skills in such a way to maximize students enjoyment and help them reach their ultimate potential. We are here to motivate young minds, develop happy and healthy dancers in an “I Love to Dance" atmosphere.  

At DFX, we believe in developing "the TOTAL DANCER".

On the other face of Dance FX is a new program focusing on sharing dance with adults. Adults are provided the opportunity to take classes promoting fun and fitness through dance as well as, continue a childhood past time or explore an area of physical well being they have always considered but yet not experienced. Adult classes are designed for anyone seeking a means of physical activity and exercise in a fun, creative environment focusing on cardio, stretch, strengthening and basic movement.

Our Beliefs

We believe that introducing and enriching your child in dance is a wonderful gift that will last forever! Dance teaches poise, promotes good posture, body alignment, musical awareness, and develops rhythm and coordination. Dance increases strength, flexibility and exercises cognitive abilities. Involvement in the many forms of dance allows the student to explore movement, music, and creative expression as they learn to dance in a structured environment. Dance is an athletic art form that strengthens the student mentally, physically and artistically.

Educational and Artistic Incentives

From an educational standpoint, involvement in the arts through class work and stage performance provides each dancer with a positive and personal growth experience. It promotes self-esteem, confidence and lifetime achievements, which benefit students in all areas of education and leadership. Children enrolled in dance classes learn life lessons in discipline, time management, organization, working together, and most importantly develop confidence and self-esteem needed to become successful young adults.

For the young dance student to the aspiring dancer, performance plays a significant role in their development as a dancer and entertainer. From a student's view, performing is an opportunity to display the dance skills they have worked hard for all year. It is their moment to shine as stars on the stage and excel. Performance provides each student with a personal achievement and grand memory, which will last a lifetime. For the adult dancers performance opportunities and furthering the art of dance, into areas such as choreography and teaching, look out to a new horizon, not as available until now.
