About NEOD
Our
Mission
Northeast Ohio Dance is a nonprofit organization that is dedicated to providing exceptional dance education and performances. While our foundation lies in classical ballet, we recognize the importance of a well-rounded dance education. Therefore, we also offer instruction in jazz, tap, modern, and hip hop, enriching our dancers’ experience and fostering versatility. Our passionate instructors bring expertise and dedication, nurturing talent and instilling valuable life skills. We empower individuals to excel in dance and beyond, fostering confidence, discipline, and success.
Northeast Ohio Dance applies 100% of its effort teaching the art of dance. We emphasize Classical Ballet as the basis for the study of dance with Modern, Tap, Hip Hop and Jazz to augment the ballet training. Our exceptional teaching staff is dedicated to nurturing young dancers with a strong classical ballet technique and unified style.
The program provides inspiration and progressive physical development in a professional, friendly atmosphere. Our preference is to inspire rather than force the student to excel and to train them mentally as well as physically.
Dancing for the Mind & Body
Training and Performances
Students at Northeast Ohio Dance can begin their education as early as age 3. For the students who want a performance emphasis, we offer a pre-professional program designed to provide conditions similar to those a professional dance company or college dance major program.
