Elite High Performance Centers has been working with some of North America's top athletes for over ten years. We have created a solid reputation as being the "go-to" trainers and therapists for many professional athletes and dancers in Canada.

Elite's Professional Dance Program is specifically designed for the busy training/lifestyle of professional dancers. Taking into consideration the aesthetics and long history of classical dance, Elite High Performance has created a program that focuses on the health, performance and balance required to excel as a dancer.

Our Professional Dance Program consists of a number of educational units that target many of the concerns that dancers face during training and performances as well as understanding how their bodies respond to these constant demands.

CLASS PROGRAMMING

Elite's class programming is designed to address and educate all levels of staff involved in the performance preparation of a professional dancer and is divided into three programming units.
