Dance classes, in our opinion, offer children tools for life-long success including an emotional outlet, discipline, an open mind, creativity, and confidence.The CDC staff supports this belief through Technique, Individuality, and the Artistry of Dance. We are eager to pass our love and respect of the Arts onto our students and we look forward to welcoming new students into the CDC Family!! Please

What’s better than ONE week of Jeka & Mollee? A whole SEASON. ✨

Our LA faves are making the leap from the West Coast to CT — and they’re officially joining the CDC faculty for Season 29.

MOLLEE GRAY is one of the most sought-after working dancers in LA, with a TV and film career that started at age 9 and lead roles on Disney Channel, Nickelodeon, Netflix, and more. Her teaching style is colorful, energetic, and athletic — specializing in jazz and lyrical/contemporary, with a whole movement built around her mini & junior dancers ( ). Credits include The Pulse on Tour, Millennium, Movement Lifestyle, World of Dance Live, and DancerPalooza.

JEKA JANE is one of LA’s most in-demand teachers and choreographers, having danced for Ariana Grande, Nicki Minaj, NSYNC, and Todrick Hall — with principal roles in “No Tears Left to Cry,” Netflix’s The Prom, and HBO’s Euphoria. He’s performed at the Billboard Music Awards, Coachella, and the VMAs. A powerful voice in the dance community as a working trans man, Jeka brings a spirit of support, equality, and excellence to every class.

Fall registration opens TOMORROW. Don’t sleep on it. 💜🩵💚

💜💙💚2026-2027 COMPANY AUDITIONS💜💙💚

Is your dancer ready to take the next step?

Our Competition Teams Auditions are coming up May 16th & 17th, and we’re inviting dancers ages 4–18 to join a program designed to help them grow not just as performers—but as confident, dedicated artists.

At CT Dance Conservatory, we believe in bridging the gap between dance studio life and the professional dance world. Our dancers train in a supportive environment that encourages strong technique, artistry, discipline, and teamwork—while still keeping community at the heart of everything we do.

Being part of our competition team means:
✨ Building confidence and stage presence
✨ Developing strong technical training
✨ Learning commitment, teamwork, and leadership
✨ Becoming part of a supportive dance family

Whether your dancer is exploring competition for the first time or looking to deepen their training, our program is built to challenge, inspire, and support every dancer’s journey.

Come SHINE with us. 💜💙💚

Honoring Black History Month through the voices, stories, and movement of our dancers in this community. At CDC, our diversity is our strength, and every dancer’s story matters.

This is just the beginning. There’s more to come as we continue celebrating the diversity of our community together.
Thank you to Noel, Nia, and Jacinthe for your support in bringing this project to life.
