our mission
Our goal is to enrich and empower the creative, intellectual, social, emotional, and physical well-being of DDPAC students through involvement and exposure to the arts. We promote the worth and dignity of the individual in a safe, nurturing environment while helping prepare him/her to be a contributing member of an ever-changing and culturally diverse society. We instill the idea that dance is not only movement, but a way of life whose lessons can be applied whether the student continues to dance or not. All students can learn, achieve, and succeed. We choose to cultivate an environment of achievement and partnership between the student, parents, school, and community so that all who walk through our doors will become exceptional citizens of the world.
about us
Welcome to our family-owned studio, Dance Dimensions Performing Arts Center!
The Orenstein Family opened up their first studio in 2003, and has been offering children and adult classes ever since.
We offer many styles of dance for students 2 years old to Adults taught by professionals in the dance industry, working choreographers, master teachers and performers. Dance Dimensions offers superior dance education. Our teachers are chosen because they enthusiastically agree with our Philosophy of Caring, which we find just as important as their resumes and their ability and passion to nurture and teach the students. We offer classes to students who are looking for fun after-school activities AND for those who would like to end up pursuing Dance as a career. Sometimes one becomes the other!
DDPAC TIMELINE:
2003: Opened our first dance studio in Woodland Hills
2008: Moved to our next location in the Promenade Mall
November 2011: Added our Aerial program
October 2017: Moved to our brand new facility on Ventura Blvd, between Woodlake and Valley Circle with 700 students!
WHAT WE OFFER (ASIDE FROM OUR AWESOME WEEKLY CLASSES):
- Award winning Dance Company, where dancers perform and compete year round
- In-Studio Master Class series called Excelerate! In the past, we have been graced by Hope Boykin from Alvin Ailey, Mark Kanemura, Andy Grammer, Allison Holker, Allison Stoner, Cheryl Burke, Twitch, Willdabeast, Lauren Gottlieb, Napolean and Tabitha, Travis Wall, and many others!
- Summer Dance Camp for ages 5-18, with styles varying from hip hop and ballet, to Bollywood and acrobatics
