We are conveniently located at 388 South 22nd Street, just off Rt. 79 in Heath, Ohio. We are just minutes from Newark, Granville, Thornville, and Hebron. We offer a specialized pre-school area with smaller equipment to enable our youngest students tolerant and grow in a safe environment.
Our dance and gymnastics facilities offer state-of-the-art training equipment and a dedicated staff. Our dance teachers and gymnastics coaches are members of Dance Masters of America and USA Gymnastics, having received specialized training in their respective fields.
Our classes meet primarily after school and run throughout the evening. We teach September through May and have a revised and limited schedule during the summer months.
We also host birthday celebrations! We offer the use of our facility, under the supervision of our staff, on weekends. Parties are designed to meet your personal needs.

TESTIMONIALS
My children have been involved in both dance and gymnastics at Avanté for two years. There are not enough words to communicate my gratitude to the entire staff for the love they have shown to our family. My kids have grown so much, not just as dancers and gymnasts, but more importantly, as people. Like home, Avanté is a place where they know they are loved unconditionally. I can't imagine being anywhere else.
Heidi Jardine
We’ve been part of the Avanté family for a few years, and my daughter thinks of it as her second home. The staff is wonderful, and they’ve helped her grow both as an athlete and a person.
Julia Smith
My daughter has been a member here since she was 5 years old. We are in our 8th year, and she couldn’t be happier. This place has become our second home and our family. Dance routines and costumes are age-appropriate. Instructors are patient and instill great work ethics in the children—a great place to feel welcome and build confidence. A fun environment while learning skills needed to become a great dancer or gymnast.
