About Us:

State Street Dance Studio opened its doors for the sole purpose of reaching students of all ages and abilities to do good work and to pay it forward to others. This Studio encourages both faculty and students to raise the bar for themselves, reach out further and try to put their best foot forward.

State Street believes that dance and movement touch the inner child in us all, whether or not you're studying for sheer pleasure, and/or working towards a professional career.

We at State Street Dance Studio offer a wide variety of classes including Ballet, Pointe, Character, Theater Dance, Tap, Modern, Contemporary, Hip Hop, Jazz, Ballroom, and Nia. We have many classes for adults as well as children.

 The State Street Dance Studio Philosophy is to raise the barre by bringing Chicago-quality dance education to the Suburbs. Faculty members strive to help each student reach his or her personal potential, and inspire excellence of body, mind, and spirit, in a non-competitive, non-judgmental atmosphere. State Street students learn that mistakes are crucial to learning, and that learning is the basis for their growth.
