About Us

Competition tryouts take place in October and is open to all ages. Our award-winning competitive team travels across the Midwest performing against the best studios creating opportunities for challenge, growth, and reward!

 Dancers must enroll in classes according to their age group. Our studio strives to create leaders even when abilities are different. This allows students to grow with technical skills as well as leadership capabilities. If you believe your dancer would benefit from a challenge, we highly recommend trying out for our competitive team. We believe all opportunities provided will help maximize your dancer’s potential and accelerate their growth.  

Ashlee is the proud owner of Concrete Elite Dance Company. As a wife, mom of two, and a registered nurse with an MSN, her heart has always been in serving others—and that includes the incredible dancers who walk through our doors. CEDC was founded in 2017 after God placed it on her heart to create a space where young people could grow not only as dancers, but as confident, coachable individuals and dependable teammates. Alongside the dedicated staff, she is passionate about meeting dancers where they are, helping them develop skills that will serve them far beyond the studio. At CEDC, we strive to build a safe, inspiring environment where every dancer feels supported, seen, and encouraged to become the best version of themselves.

Coach Brooke is the heart of our studio—a full-time teacher, devoted wife, and proud mom of two energetic boys. Her passion for dance is matched only by her dedication to the personal growth of every student she works with. Brooke has a gift for seeing the potential in everyone and nurturing their confidence, both on and off the dance floor. Her kind spirit, unwavering support, and deep love for teaching have played a vital role in the success and growth of our studio. With Brooke, it’s more than just dance—it’s about building character, believing in each dancer’s unique journey, and creating a space where every student feels seen, valued, and inspired.

Coach Noel brings unmatched energy, heart, and dedication to our CEDC family. A former CEDC dancer herself, she understands firsthand the impact of this studio and pours that passion into every dancer she works with. Noel has a true servant’s heart—she continues to give back to her community as a volunteer firefighter and is always ready to be a helping hand wherever it’s needed. Her ability to light up a room, uplift others, and lead with kindness makes her an invaluable part of our team. With a heart of gold and a deep connection to CEDC, Noel inspires dancers not only through her coaching, but through the way she lives out the values we hold dear.

Jodi is the warm smile that greets you the moment you walk through the doors of CEDC. While she may be new to the staff, she’s certainly not new to our studio—having been a proud supporter from day one and the biggest cheerleader of her daughter, Ashlee. With a front-row seat to the growth of CEDC, Jodi now plays a hands-on role, bringing her strong organizational skills, creative ideas, and unwavering support to everything she does. She’s the helping hand we can always count on, and her behind-the-scenes dedication keeps the studio running smoothly. Simply put, we couldn’t do it without her.
