Welcome to Life at Iowa Dance Collective

A true home for dance education

A School Built for Artists

At Iowa Dance Collective, we’re not just offering classes—we’re offering a dance education. Our brand-new facility at 402 N B Street in Fairfield, Iowa was created to support students in their full development as artists, movers, and young people.

With dedicated spaces designed for both learning and connection, our school includes:

  • Three professional studios with sprung floors

  • A quiet classroom/homework room for downtime and study

  • Changing rooms that provide space and privacy

  • A parent lounge for comfort between drop-off and pick-up

  • An inviting outdoor hangout space where friendships grow

Every element of our space is intentional—because we’re not just a place to dance, we’re a place to grow.

A Place to Belong

Being part of IDC means being part of a supportive, kind, and encouraging community. Whether they’re sharing space in the classroom, high-fiving after a combo, or hanging out in the sunshine between rehearsals, our students form lasting bonds that stretch far beyond the studio walls.

We cultivate an environment where everyone feels welcome, everyone is celebrated, and everyone has a place.

The IDC Approach

As educators, we know our responsibility goes far beyond technique. We work to develop confidence, discipline, creativity, and character in every dancer who walks through our doors.

Our faculty are passionate professionals who lead with compassion, structure, and joy—striking the balance between high expectations and heartfelt encouragement.

Discover What Sets Us Apart

At Iowa Dance Collective, we believe in something deeper than drop-in classes and recital routines. We offer a comprehensive, layered education in dance—grounded in technique, enriched by artistry, and supported by a vibrant, caring community.

What sets us apart isn’t just what we teach—it’s how we teach it. We meet each dancer where they are and guide them with patience, challenge them with purpose, and celebrate them with heart. Our students aren’t numbers in a class—they’re individuals we invest in.

We’re building more than dancers—we’re shaping strong, curious, resilient humans who know how to work hard, support others, and express themselves with confidence.

Whether your child dreams of a professional career or simply wants to move, create, and belong, IDC is a place where they will be seen, supported, and inspired—every step of the way.

We’re not just a dance studio - we’re a dance school
