Illuminate Dance Company is an entry-level performance group for dancers ages 9 and up. Our youth dance companies offer additional training and performance opportunities while also providing a supportive dance community that encourages personal and spiritual growth.
Company dancers will have the opportunity to learn several different choreographed dances throughout the season in styles such as ballet, jazz, and contemporary dance and participate in approximately 2-4 performances per season. These performances can include Fueled & Aflame Dance Ministry concerts, performances at local churches, worship & outreach concerts, schools, hospitals, retirement communities, workshops, and other local venues.
Illuminate provides a unique and special dance community where dancers can build deep, long-lasting friendships with other dancers that share their beliefs. Dancers will learn to support, encourage, and pray for one another regularly as they grow together in their faith and artistic abilities. This counter-cultural dance environment is much needed in our world and has filled the void many families with young dancers have been searching for!
Illuminate Dance Company is run under the direction of Chelle Ann-Cartee Vollmer. Ms. Chelle is an instructor for Fueled & Aflame Dance Studio as well as a company artist with Fueled & Aflame Dance Company. Illuminate company members will have the opportunity to learn from Ms. Chelle and other guest choreographers throughout the season.
