 LDA Ensemble is a student performing company for students passionate about dance training and performance artistry. Ensemble dancers work with guest choreographers, perform in several events throughout the year, attend professional performances, and engage in community outreach. 

 A dance company is like a family, and our dancers work together as a team. Dancers have a shared bond in their passion for technique, artistry, and performance. They support and make a commitment to one another as a team.  

Welcome to Lakewood's home for dance education. Our outstanding instructors create concept-based lessons with proven best practices. Every student is supported as they grow into artists, athletes, and engaged members of their community.

Brain-Compatible Dance Education (BCDE), developed by Anne Green Gilbert and the Creative Dance Center, is a nationally and internationally recognized teaching methodology. BCDE is a structured methodology for teaching dance using lesson plans and strategies that create an environment in which the brain is ready, willing, and able to learn.
