Welcome to the Dance Center

The Dance Center Mission

To provide a place where people of all ages and all abilities can enjoy the beauty and discipline of dance.

About us!

 Elizabeth Hansen started the Dance Center in 1992 offering classes in Ballet, Jazz and Creative movement. Over the years we have added Modern, Hip hop and recently Tap. The school currently has an average enrollment of 275-300 students.

We are located at the Great Falls Performing Arts Center in Auburn, Maine. ( Second floor). Corner of High and Academy streets.

The Dance Center stresses proper body alignment, technique, strengthening, stretching and healthy work habits while creating an atmosphere for all levels of dancers to enjoy the art of dance. For our younger dancers we introduce the children to rythm, mime, fantasy, improvisation, stretching, strengthening and of course having fun! The Dance Center offers a place where dancers will be encouraged and allowed to grow at their own pace. We stress solid family values  and modest costuming at our annual recital. The serious student and the recreational student will both be fulfilled.

Elizabeth and our staff have enjoyed teaching and mentoring students for the past 18 years. It has been a blessing to work with so many students and to watch them grow into fine young adults.
We encourage our students to be active in the local art community and to continue dancing and creating as so many have.
