Encore Studio's Director and staff are so wonderful and helpful to all of the parents and little ones. The Nutcracker performance was top notch and so well performed. We loved it.
I will have my daughter there for a long time because of the excellence and quality of performance. Many thanks to Encore and KCRA.

My two daughters attend Encore and have an absolutely wonderful time. They adore their teacher, Miss Carly, and have learned a lot from her. They just love to come home and show me what they have learned each week. It's so much fun!

My daughter has danced with Miss Lisa since the summer of '96. At that time Miss Lisa had classes thru park and rec in Carmichael She would drive from Wilton to work with the dancers. When she first started her dance studio in Elk Grove, she continued to provide classes in Sacramento. She eventually transitioned the program to a new instructor. When it was clear that the new instructor wasn’t working out, Miss Lisa stepped in to complete the remaining the classes. This required an enormous amount of Miss Lisa’s time and energy. Commuting back and forth to Sacramento, all the while she was expanding her new studio in Elk Grove. At the end of that year several dancers followed Miss Lisa to Elk Grove. My daughter is one of the last remaining from her Sacramento dancers For the past 8 years I have not hesitated to commute to Elk Grove two to three times a weekly so my daughter could have the benefits of Miss Lisa and the dance philosophy that she embraces
I have so many wonderful memories of my daughters dance recitals. One of my most cherished memories came last December when my daughter was fitted for her first point shoes. The entire class along with Miss Lisa went to Capezios. It was truly a day that I will always remember. While each girl was being fitted Miss Lisa would reminisce sharing her memories of each girl and their gift of dance.
Ms Lisa is as enthusiastic and committed today as she was during the first dance lessons that my daughter attended in 1996. Her outgoing personality and spirited nature have won her the hearts of many parents but it’s her cheerful smile and positive disposition and unwavering encouragement that make even the littlest of dancers adore her.

I first came around Encore for the production of Cinderella. Everyone did an awesome job especially Prince Charming and Cinderella. I wish he would have been cast as the Rat King in the Nutcracker. That would have been funny.

As a dancer at wonderful Encore! I think the teachers, staff and my fellow dancers put their all into everytihng they do.
I started at Encore 9 years ago, when I was 3, with my cousin. We started on "The Littlest Nutcracker", with Ms. Lisa I believe, as mice. A few sessions later Whitney dropped out, and I continued my dancing experience without her. From there I had many teachers, Ms. Annica, Ms. Catherine, Ms. Dana, Ms. Kristen, Ms. Serena, Ms. Katie, Ms. Karli, Ms. Kim, and many others. I took many classes, Ballet, tap, jazz/hip-hop, and lyrical. I hope to stay long enough to go en pointe. I remeber telling stories about our pets in Ms. Lisa's class. And I remeber being sad when Ms. Serena left Encore. I remember dancing on stage my 1st year with one fo the teachers on stage as a big rat. I always will love watching the second cene of the show after I went on and seeing the little dancers do their little dance. I look forward to the recitals each year. And the day after it, I want to know what the next one will be. I hope to someday, before leaving
Encore, become one of the lead characters in the show. I am proud to announce I am a good friend of the former star of the show "Cinderella", Prince Erik.
Even after the countless stretches, kicks, jumps, routines, barre stretches, and giggles, I will always be excited to go to my next dance class each week.
Thanks Ms. Lisa,
~Courtney "Cheerio"

This is so awesome I've been apart of Encore for 10 years so far. I just recently have danced into my first pair of pointe shoes and have been in countless performances with a starring role in the Nutcracker as Clara in 2003. I have been so grateful to have so many great fun goofy teachers, friends, and expecially our studio's director Ms. Lisa. Encore has given me so many opportunities like the dance team with many community events and competition teams with many awards we've won. Encore does many different things and we have so many diverse dancers. I am just very lucky that I am apart of this great and awesome studio. Encore Rocks! :)

"I've danced at Encore! for allmost all of my life! I have gotten to perform countless times. I was Jane Banks in Mary Poppins, and that was a great experience. My brother has been the Nutcracker and had other parts in the recitals. My parents have been in a few shows as well. No matter what, Encore! is always there! GO ENCORE!

My Granddaughter has attended this dance studio since she was 3 years. It has been 5 years of dancing and having fun. I have seen this studio grow since my daughter attended many years ago and now I am blessed to see my granddaughter bloom into amazing little dancer. I have seen her confidence increase as she learns new techniques, I have seen her mature with her peers, and I have seen her ability to achieve so much as she dances in many recitals and performances. Encore has given her the ability to have so much and learn so much. I love Encore and hope that many grandparents have the ability to see all that I have seen in this amazing home town, professional studio. The staff is amazing, the teachers have impeccable technique and training, and best of all the Owner Lisa is the greatest. We could not have asked for better, she is amazing!!!! Encore is the greatest!

I have been at this dance studio for over 10 years and it has grown very close to my heart. It is like a family there. I take classes as well as teach and receive great joy from participating in both activities. Special shout out to Miss Lisa, the teacher that first grounded me in ballet and whom continues to guide my dancing. LOVE! Cinderella (Miss Amanda)

We just recently joined this studio and LOVE what we are experiencing. The teachers are all amazing, classrooms are beautiful with spring loaded floors and great murals. The music and dance moves taught are age appropriate, which we appreciate for younger dancers. We look forward to many more years of fun and excitement.
