Excellence in Arts Education Through Excellence in Administration

Our MissionAbout Ensemble Performing Arts
Ensemble Performing Arts is a vibrant community of independently run music and dance studios, powered by passionate educators and supported by a team that believes in preserving what makes each school special.
We celebrate individuality, champion artistic excellence, and provide the kind of meaningful support that empowers studio leaders to thrive in the way that suits them best—whether that’s continuing to lead with confidence, focusing fully on teaching, or transitioning into a new season while knowing their studio’s legacy is honored and secure.
At Ensemble, we uplift what makes each studio unique. We invest in its future, strengthen its operations, and work behind the scenes to enhance the experience for every student, parent, and teacher. Our mission is to nurture the heart of each studio—ensuring it remains a place where community, creativity, and care flourish.

Stewardship Matters
We are stewards of the performing arts businesses we acquire, their legacies, and the communities they serve. Our belief that arts education enriches lives drives us to support sustainable business models that provide safe and nurturing experiences for our students and their families, along with meaningful, sustainable career opportunities for our team.
Growth Fuels Purpose
As an acquirer, growth unlocks new resources and allows us to use the benefits of scale to positively impact the communities we support and the industry in which we operate. As educators, we believe in the capacity of students and staff to develop new skills through practice and mentorship, and we are committed to fostering advancement opportunities for individuals who share this growth mindset.
We Are Stagehands
We describe ourselves as stagehands because we embrace a supporting role in service of our students and teachers, and all of our efforts and resources are directed in support of enriching classroom experiences. We believe in staying humble, taking ownership, and solving problems as we have fun working together to further our mission.
My Ensemble Story: As the former owner of the first music school to become part of Ensemble Performing Arts, I was searching for someone who would honor the legacy of the school, and truly care for the teachers and students who meant so much to me. That hope has not only been fulfilled—it has been exceeded in ways I never imagined. It’s now been six and a half years since Jeff and Ensemble entered my life, and during that time, I’ve experienced tremendous personal and professional growth. My sense of purpose has deepened, and my passion for teaching has been renewed. The school that still bears my name continues to thrive—and I’m proud to say that I still teach there because I believe, wholeheartedly, that it remains the best place to learn.
