California Dance Company

Fantastic experience: I have a 4 year old boy enrolled in preschool gymnastics. It was the first activity he’s ever done without me right there with him. I was thankful for Coach Ari, she eased him in and he is thriving. We are on our second season and will continue with CDC!

Fantastic experience: My daughter is starting her first season and we are so excited! Everyone has been so helpful answering any questions I’ve had and getting us started!

Fantastic experience: My daughter absolutely loves California Dance Company! She looks forward to every single class and gets so excited to go. She first started with the Tutus and Bow Ties dance class with Miss Ari, and she loved it so much that when the season ended, she couldn’t wait to go back. Over the summer, we enrolled her in gymnastics, and it has been such a positive experience. When she first started, she could barely climb a ladder or attempt a front flip, but now she’s confidently doing both—and more! The growth in her skills has been amazing, but what has impressed me most is the confidence she’s built along the way. As a parent, it’s so rewarding to see her not only learn new abilities but also believe in herself more and more each week. California Dance Company is such a great place for kids to be active, learn, and grow. Whether it’s too hot in the summer or too cold in the winter, it’s the perfect weekend activity that keeps children moving, engaged, and having fun in a safe and supportive environment. The teachers are all so kind, patient, and encouraging. Miss Ari was wonderful with the little dancers, and the gymnastics instructors have been equally fantastic. Amber in the office is always so welcoming—she greets us with a smile every time and makes everyone feel at home. I am so grateful we found this studio. It has been such a gift to see my daughter thrive, and I highly recommend California Dance Company to any parent looking for a place where their child can build skills, confidence, and lasting joy.

Fantastic experience: Very nice company definitely people persons I would highly recommend

Fantastic experience: We absolutely love CDC, My two year daughter had learned so much and looks forward to dance class every week. Her teacher Miss Raelyn is absolutely the best along with her little helpers. I highly recommend cdc to all our little friends.

Fantastic experience: I have my 3 year old little boy in Dance with RaeLynn and we just put him in Gymnastics! Every week he is beyond excited to go to both classes. I am very pleased with his teachers and how classes are put together! We love it here!

Fantastic experience: My daughter loves going to gymnastics! We look forward to going every week! We love her Teacher! She makes it so fun and joins the girls in instructing what to do physically!

Fantastic experience: My oldest daughter started dance at another studio in Redding when she was 3years old and we had such an awful experience at this other studio that we spent the next few years trying out different activities/ sports. When my daughter was 7 we went to an event where we saw California Dance Company preform and we were blown away. My daughter looked at me and said “Mom, I want to do that!” So we started at the Redding CDC Location where we met our first CDC teacher Ms. Jamie. The way that Ms. Jamie taught, you could just see the level of passion and care that this young teacher put into her craft. During that time, I was pregnant with my second Daughter who spent then next few years watching her sister dance at the studio. My middle daughter turned 2 we signed her up for Ms. Raelynn’s class. This little girl who had never been in a room without her mom or Dad said “bye Mom and Dad, I’m headed to dance class.” She was in her element. She had quite literally been waiting her entire life to dance like her big sister. We were blown away watching this Tiny Tot class and how well Ms. Raelynn was able to make a room full of toddlers follow instructions .This was the year my oldest daughter decided to take on a few more classes. Then it happened, towards the end of the season we got the invite to audition for their Competition team. I was nervous about cost/ commitment, but the Office staff is so knowledgeable they were able to answer any and all questions I had. My oldest was so nervous and told me that she “totally bombed” the audition. But then, a few weeks later we received the email that she made a Jazz and Lyrical routine. That first year in the Intensive program she made a tremendous amount of growth. That’s when we met Ms. Daia. From the moment we met her she made us feel so comfortable and at ease. She ALWAYS goes about and beyond for her students. Over the next few years I watched these teachers completely transform my daughter. So what did I do next? Of course I had my 2nd daughter audition for their Competition team at 4 years old . My only regret, is not having my oldest start at CDC from the beginning. Over the years my daughters have been taught by/ we have had positive experiences with: Jamie, Daia, Raelynn, Neveah, Amanda, Sonya, Lotus and Marie.(I’m sorry if I forgot to mention someone, my point is they are all amazing!) These teachers love, protect and guide our babies as if they are their own. From the office staff to the teachers, they have created this environment that feels so much like a second home and I am forever grateful that we are able to be a part of it!

Fantastic experience: I am thrilled to share my wonderful experience with California Dance Company. This studio truly offers an incredible variety of classes for all levels, along with a competitive dance team. From the moment my daughter enrolled at the age of 3.5, we have been consistently impressed with the top-notch quality of instruction and the supportive staff. First and foremost, the teachers at California Dance Company are simply the best. They are highly skilled, knowledgeable, and passionate about what they do. It's evident that they genuinely care about their students' progress and enjoyment. They create a positive and nurturing environment that fosters growth, creativity, and a love for dance. Their dedication and expertise have played a significant role in my daughter's development as a dancer. One aspect that sets California Dance Company apart is their emphasis on a positive mindset and body image. As a parent of a pre-teen, I greatly appreciate how the studio goes beyond teaching dance technique and focuses on building confidence and a healthy self-image. They promote inclusivity, encourage self-expression, and foster a supportive community. It's refreshing to see a dance studio that prioritizes the well-being and mental health of its students. Every year, we eagerly look forward to seeing what new classes and events the studio will introduce. California Dance Company consistently adds exciting and innovative offerings, ensuring there's always something new to explore. The variety keeps the experience fresh and engaging for both students and parents. It's a testament to the studio's commitment to growth and providing the best possible dance education. I can confidently say that our time at California Dance Company has been nothing short of extraordinary. As a parent, I am grateful for the positive impact it has had on my daughter's life. Whether your child is just starting their dance journey or looking to take their skills to the next level, I highly recommend California Dance Company. You'll find exceptional instruction, a welcoming atmosphere, and a community that supports and celebrates each dancer's unique abilities.

Fantastic experience: Cdc is not just a dance company to my daughter, it's more like a family. The love and passion her teachers show her is amazing. They take the time and work with her to develop her skills as a dancer.

Fantastic experience: I give California Dance Company a 5 GOLDEN STAR REVIEW! Our Maggie sue has been attending the studio since she was 2 she is now 6 and rocks it on stage ! We are so proud the confidence this little girl has is magical ! I 100% give credit to the wonderful teachers she has. CDC is like our second home and we wouldn’t change it for the world ! We are so excited for many many more seasons with CDC .

Fantastic experience: From recreational to intensive, CDC pushes dancers to be all they can be, both in the studio and in life! CDC's instructors are more than just dance teachers...they take a vested interest in their students and teach them how to face challenges, work with others, and the importance of commitment. Whether you are looking to improve or simply to have fun, CDC's varied schedule has a class just perfect for you!

Fantastic experience: Such a great dance studio, my 3 year old daughter does gymnastics here and the teachers are so accommodating to such young children. My daughter looks forward to every Monday!! Also a good price!

Fantastic experience: Friendly people. All around a nice place.

Fantastic experience: My daughter has been dancing with CDC (California Dance Company) for the past 3 years, and it has been an amazing experience. We absolutely love it! We haven’t met a teacher we didn’t love and they have all helped her grown and develop so much. She has come out of her shell and has gained so much confidence. We can’t recommend them enough, try it!

Fantastic experience: Miss Dylan is amazing with my 3 year old! She has taken part in Dance/Tap and gymnastics. The small kids really love her the facility is kept clean and not lacking professionalism. And I love that they offer a weekend class.

Fantastic experience: My girls have been attending California Dance Company (CDC) for 5 years now. My husband and I are both impressed with CDC and how invested they are in the youth of our community. They have a wide variety of dance classes for all ages with two locations and several different days and times to meet the needs of either stay at home parents as well as working parents. Our girls have so much fun dancing each season and they end each season with an amazing performance to showcase all of the students hard word. CDC is professional and organized each year. Their professionalism and creativity really showed to be true during the COVID pandemic. They held virtual dance parties so the kids could still “get together” with other children, they continued their classes via zoom (which is hard to do on such short notice), and they continued to keep their main focus on the students and their needs. I feel so blessed that we have such an amazing dance studio in our community for our girls to attend. We know that they will leave class more confident and empowered each class. They learn how to work hard, strive to reach their personal goals, and to work as a team. I highly recommend CDC to any family looking for a dance studio to join.

Fantastic experience: California Dance is THE BEST! My girls have been going there since they were in diapers. Simply put- CDC grows passion, confidence and incredible friendships! I can't say enough great things about them! With the re-open related to COVID, They created a process that really put me at ease; hand washing stations, temp checks, before the dancers even walk through the front door! So impressive! Plus it gave my girls a sense of normalcy in such a crazy time.

Fantastic experience: This place is AWESOME!!! I can't say enough about the teachers and the staff. They have multiple shows a year so we can see how our little ones are improving, and they do lots and lots of other fun things for the kids throughout the year as well. They offer all sorts of dance as well as tumbling for the little ones! Cindy the owner/manager is so sweet and helpful. And Sonya, the head dance teacher, is just incredible too-she's Canadian and besides teaching dance she teaches athletes it is not cool to vape! A wonderfully wholesome place for kids to learn some fun dance skills!!!

Fantastic experience: CDC isn’t just a dance studio, it’s a place where I know my girls are gaining the confidence, learning to grow as a person and a place to where the teachers are so passionate about their students. This is our family and I wouldn’t want our girls anywhere else but CDC!! The Anderson studio has so many class options for everyone to learn and grow. Best dance studio in the north state!!

Fantastic experience: My daughter started dancing at California Dance Company when she was 3 (in 2009). When we started going there, we were excited to see our daughter was being taught the technique that helped her to become the dancer she is, but what really has made us stay, and never consider moving is that CDC coaches care about my child. They teach the kids discipline and the value of hard work. They teach the kids not just how to be better dancers, but better people in general. They teach team work, determination, and to encourage others. They offer not just the typical dance classes you see at most studios, but also offer aerial silks, and tumbling. We found CDC for our daughter in 2009, and it has been her second home since.

Fantastic experience: Love this dance studio! The teachers are fun, energetic and very skilled at what they do! Kids LOVE California Dance Company!!!

Fantastic experience: I enrolled my daughter at CDC when she was 3 years old so she could be around other children, have fun and learn skills. What I didn’t know at that time was that this studio CDC was going to turn into her second family. Everyone from the dance instructors, student helpers, and office staff have been apart of helping my daughter grow as a person and dancer. She has made the best of friends here with the children. They offer so many different options for each child, person and family. They continue to grow and add more but yet are able to retain that personal touch and attention for each child. I highly recommended CDC both Anderson and Redding location as my daughter has attended both.

Fantastic experience: My daughter has been dancing at CDC for 8 years and we couldn’t be happier! This is her safe haven... the instructors are incredible and care so much about the dancers! They don’t just teach dance, they help develop the kids into good people, with goals and respect and discipline. These dancers are taught to be kind and genuine. This is our second family, the girls that my daughter dances with are her sisters... their bond greater than other friends. I highly recommend this studio for any level of dance, whether you want something fun for your toddler to do an hour a week, or your child wants a career in dance and needs a studio that fosters that growth and development... there is a place for all here and they will welcome you into their family with open arms!

Fantastic experience: I wanted to learn how to tap dance my entire life and finally did it with the CDC staff. They were patient, kind, and, as it turns out, I don't have two left feet after all! Had so much fun we signed up for adult hip-hop too. Definitely try this place if you have ever been interested in learning to dance. Thanks Sonya and Cindie!
