From the reviews
CDA is truly an incredible dance studio! The teachers are excellent—skilled, encouraging, and passionate about helping every dancer grow. The owners are deeply dedicated to making sure each family has the best experience possible, whether your child is dancing just for fun or is part of the competitive team.
My daughter has been dancing at CDA for 10 years. She has learned so much and developed a love for dance. She has participated in dance company for several years as well and I have seen outstanding growth in her skills and confidence. I appreciate the teachers and the structure provided at CDA.
Everyone was extremely helpful when it came to picking the right class for my shy 4 year old. The facility is clean and organized. The teachers are friendly and the most IMPORTANT THING, there is no dancer better than the other. Everyone is equal and no bullying. I highly recommend CDA.
So thankful that we have such a top notch studio in our small town. Love the structure and the technique focus. Love that the kids (and adults) have this space to have fun and to explore art and movement. It's basically a second home for me and my daughter. Highly recommend this studio!
Your first ballet class at Central Dance Academy
Nervous about walking into your first class? Almost everyone is — and a good studio expects beginners, whether your dancer is five or you're returning at fifty. Here's what to know. What to wear: comfortable clothes you can move in, with socks or bare feet; a leotard and tights are nice if you have them, but not required, and pointe shoes are years down the road — never day one. What to expect: class usually starts at the barre with slow, simple movements to warm up, then moves to the center — follow along, copy the teacher, and don't worry about getting it "right" the first time. Arrive early: come 10–15 minutes ahead to change, find a spot, and let the teacher know it's a first class so they can keep an eye out. It gets easier fast — most people feel far more at home by their third class.
