About Us

Jemma opened Elite in September 2011 offering only 5 classes and with 14 amazing students, most of which she is still in contact with today. We now offer 83 wonderful classes, with over 400 students across 5 days per week and in November 2024 we expanded and added another location in Hockley which is thriving.

Throughout our lifetime we have trained students into teachers, have 100% pass rate in ISTD exams, had some incredible shows and have watched numerous students blossom into wonderful Student Assistants whom we are incredibly proud of.
