Premiere Dance Academy, established in 1993, is a nationally recognized dance school that has nurtured and taught the art of dance to more than 125 students annually. We are proud to serve a diverse community of young dancers-from age 3 to 70-from over ten towns in the Missouri/Arkansas area. Our students attend classes and rehearsals for one to six days a week, reflecting their unwavering dedication and passion for the art form.

Our Mission

At Premiere Dance Academy, our mission is to provide high-quality dance training and cultivate well-rounded dance skills in our students. We strive to create an environment that not only nurtures creativity, discipline, and self-expression but also prepares our students for a successful career in dance or university dance programs. Our ultimate goal is to inspire the next generation of dancers and help them incorporate dance into their everyday lives.

Classes and Programs

Premiere Dance Academy offers a wide range of programs-from classes during the school year, summer and vacation intensives, to masterclasses with visiting dancers. Our students enjoy learning various dance styles, including ballet, tap, jazz, lyrical, contemporary, and hip-hop. We also offer a renowned competition team program for students who are committed to pursuing dance at a competitive level. Our professional instructors work closely with students to develop their technique, artistry, and performance skills while encouraging their individual talents and creativity.

Our Team

Elena Serykh, our Russian Ballet Master, took over Premiere Dance Academy in 2009 and has been instrumental in shaping the direction and vision of our studio. Under the guidance of Ami Bremer, who founded the academy in 1993, Elena has built a strong foundation for our dance school, with an emphasis on ballet and well-rounded dance skills. Our dedicated team of professional instructors shares a wealth of experience and knowledge, inspiring young dancers and helping them reach their full potential.
