Soul In Motion Dance Company is Burlington’s newest competitive dance program for dancers ages 6 through 17. We are focused on developing strong, expressive dancers through high-quality training and choreography. With an emphasis on technique, artistry, and community, dancers receive focused and comprehensive training in a supportive and inspiring environment. While working closely with experienced teachers and choreographers, dancers can grow, challenge themselves, and truly feel what it means to bring their soul into motion. With a limited number of dancers accepted each season, every member receives the attention and mentorship needed to thrive.

Our competitive teams focus on jazz, acro, lyrical, and contemporary, allowing dancers to explore both powerful athletic movement and emotional storytelling through dance. To further support technical growth, all dancers also take weekly ballet classes and cross-training sessions, which serve as a foundation for strength, control, stamina, and proper technique across all styles. Detailed program pricing is provided upon team acceptance.

Recreational Classes

Soul In Motion Dance Company offers a selection of recreational and technique-based classes alongside our competitive program.

Classes Include:

  • Mom & baby dance / yoga

  • Parent & tot dance / yoga

  • Toddler introduction to dance

  • Recreational-level classes in select styles

Dancers who are not part of the competitive team may also have the opportunity to join technique classes without competing, allowing them to continue building their skills in a supportive environment.

Class offerings will be confirmed based on interest and enrollment for Season 1.

The Soul Behind The Movement

Erica Gavrilos

Founder & Director

Soul In Motion Dance Company was created from Erica’s lifelong love of dance and the powerful impact a competitive dance team can have on a young dancer’s life. Growing up, the dance studio was more than just a place to train, it was a second home filled with creativity, friendships, mentorship, and a true sense of belonging.

With over a decade of teaching experience, Erica has worked with dancers of all ages and levels, helping them build strong technical foundations while developing confidence, discipline, and artistry through intentional and supportive training.

At Soul In Motion Erica’s vision is to build a dance studio environment that feels like a second home, a space where dancers can push themselves to achieve excellence while also feeling supported, grounded, and inspired. Soul In Motion strives to develop not only strong dancers, but confident, resilient individuals who carry their love of movement beyond the studio.
