California Dance Theatre


CDT was founded in 1985 by Artistic Directors Joyce Hurley and Kim Maselli, and Administrative Director, Lori Sorensen. Our desire is to inspire the dreams of movement, dance and performing style in boys and girls. Our school offers a full curriculum in classical ballet, jazz, lyrical, contemporary, modern, tap, musical theatre, acrobatics and hip hop with a special emphasis designed to introduce these dance forms to young children. Our daily  pre-professional ballet program grooms the advanced dancer for a future career or an exclusive university dance program. California Dance Theatre offers a highly credentialed faculty with international ballet companies, Broadway credits, television and film resumes.
