Established in 1984 by Artistic Director Bonnie Copeland, her mission has been to inspire the passion of movement, dance and performing in children of all ages. Our school offers a full curriculum in ballet, jazz, lyrical, tap, musical theatre and hip hop with a special emphasis designed to introduce these dance forms to young children. Encore Dance Centre offers a highly credentialed staff from Los Angeles, most who now instruct professionals at the most prestigious dance studios in Hollywood. Please see our Faculty page for a list of their bios.

OUR GOAL as instructors at EDC is to provide families with the highest quality dance education in the San Gabriel Valley. Our mission is to provide a nurturing, positive environment where your child can develop to his or her fullest potential while instilling an appreciation of dance as an art form. We believe dance encourages discipline, goal setting and confidence in all aspects of your child’s life.

We at EDC are excited to start this journey with you. Whether new to Encore or a long time customer, we look forward to providing another 28 years of long lasting memories for your children.
