Get to Know Us
We are more than a Dance Studio…..
Children’s Dance Theater was founded in 2007 in a small basement studio with three major goals: to provide age-appropriate music & choreography to students in Western Washington, to challenge students to achieve their personal best, and to be inclusive of students from all walks of life- including neurodivergent students.
Over the years, the small dance studio has evolved and grown to two locations in Auburn and Federal Way, and Maple Valley, WA with creative artistic opportunities for aspiring dancers, actors and artists.
Children’s Dance Theater has four pillar programs: Dance, Theater, Art, and Preschool. These programs have specialty classes meant to introduce the art form, develop exceptional skill, and provide inspiration that speaks to the artist’s soul. Our students are more than just students to us – they are family. Our faculty mentor and guide every student that enters our program to help them achieve their best. We believe that confidence, poise, dedication and self-expression are just as important as art itself. Through training and performance opportunities, our students develop into beautiful artists, as well as amazing human beings.

Dance and preschool trials are closed for the school year. Art and theater classes are still open to try!
Come try a class! If you are looking to try out a class before signing up for the school year, you can schedule your free first trial here! The teacher will welcome your student into class with excitement and acceptance and work to include your student in all of the fun. At the end, the teacher will let you know if the class is a good fit, or if they suggest a different class for your kiddo. A trial is a great way to ensure your student ends up in a class that is equally fun and challenging for them!
Our Performances
Children’s Dance Theater works hard to provide ample opportunity for your child to have their work seen by an audience. In addition to our annual June dance performance, we have a variety of shows and community events that your child can sign up to be a part of. Some performances require an audition and have additional costs. Others are available through a sign up and have little to no cost.
