Welcome to Extreme Ballroom
Community. Respect. Excellence. Service.
Mission Statement
We cultivate a community of love and service by training young people to achieve excellence on and off the dance floor.
Our Journey
In 2004, a small studio in Rigby, Idaho, became the birthplace of what has become the premiere ballroom dance program in Idaho. Tim and Staci Huston, the founders of Extreme Ballroom, embarked on a mission to channel the energy and service-oriented spirit of the popular TV show "Extreme Home Makeover" into the realm of ballroom dance. With just 115 students divided among 7 teams, Extreme Ballroom began its humble journey. Staci's passion for excellence and service laid the foundation for their unique approach to dance. Today, Extreme Ballroom has evolved and flourished, relocating to Idaho Falls and expanding to include approximately 225 students from all over Southeastern Idaho. Their dedication to dancing at the highest potential and providing exceptional service has earned them the well-deserved title of the top ballroom program in Idaho. Notable achievements, including national championships and consistently high rankings, underscore their commitment to excellence in the world of ballroom dance. Extreme Ballroom's legacy of success continues to shine brightly, and their youth, junior, and pre-teen show teams consistently delight audiences around the world.

Excellence
We strive to equip our dancers to achieve excellence in all aspects of life.
