Thank you for visiting the Eisenhower Dance Ensemble on the web! Artistic Director Laurie Eisenhower founded her company, the Eisenhower Dance Ensemble, in 1991 in metropolitan Detroit. Considered Michigan's premier contemporary dance company, EDE has achieved significant critical acclaim as well as enthusiastic audience support. The company tours nationally and internationally with 6-8 dancers and presents a local 4-5 concert subscription season each year. In 1995, EDE opened the doors to its school, the EDE Center for Dance, to serve as a base for the company's educational outreach programs. The school has since grown to include a satellite program at the Birmingham Bloomfield Art Center.
