"My daughter has danced for five years, and although we liked her other studio, switching to CADA has been the best decision. My daughter was stressed at the thought of changing to a new studio, but everyone was so warm and welcoming that she loved it instantly. As a parent, I appreciate the level of organization and communication which is essential for planning for our busy family. They have quality, individualized instruction, with a strong technical foundation. All the instructors have been amazing and care about my daughter as a whole person. That security allows them to push her to try new things and accomplish what she wouldn't otherwise. My daughter has learned and grown as a dancer more in a couple months than I ever believed was possible."
"Miss Talia is an exceptional instructor. She is great at breaking down the mechanics and proper technique of each skill in a way my daughter understands. Paying attention to these details has helped my daughter acquire multiple new Acro skills. She brings positive and fun instruction to her students and my daughter loves going to her classes!"
"Our family loves CADA! While raising three dancers, we’ve been at 7 different studios, so we’ve learned a lot about what works well, and what doesn’t, for dancers and their families! I can say with so much enthusiasm that Candice and her staff have created an awesome dance environment!! Things are well organized, communication is clear and kind and prompt, teachers are well trained and positive, expectations are high, individual attention is a priority, dancers have fun and grow in both their skills and their love for dance, the studio is clean and beautiful, and concerns are addressed with understanding. Can't beat CADA in the Treasure Valley!"
“We’re all in! It’s like going to target [going to your studio]. I walk in. I see it. I want it. I take it home.”
"Started Acro with CADA and have been so impressed with their attention to safety, detail and ensuring that each dancer is working on skills appropriate for their level. My dancer is feeling more confident and seeing progress every week!"
"I brought my daughter to this studio because I wasn't seeing growth at the past studio she was attending. I know the grass is not always greener on the other side but in this circumstance it is. She has flourished. She loves to dance and her technique and confidence has grown 5 fold. The coaches love, listen and push these dancers to be the best they can be. I am so thankful to them and CADA family."
"My daughter is new to dance and her first ballet class was amazing! She really loves her teacher and I love the smaller class size. I really appreciate how personable the staff is and how much communication I receive about any changes that occur. I am so happy we found this dance studio. The staff is awesome and my daughter loves going to class!"
“Amazing!! I have a happy dancer. She loves being at the studio... She has so much energy and enjoys every second. That is refreshing to me.”
“I loved seeing [the girls perform tonight] and how they’ve improved so much! All the girls!"
“When my daughter was younger, she was very shy and would hardly leave my side. She wouldn’t participate in any activity until I put her in Rachel’s dance class. Rachel was able to engage her and teach her how to be comfortable in front of others. Now she loves to dance and is more confident."
"Thank you, Candice, for working with my daughter! I feel like I have been asking for help from [other coaches] and no one has done what you did. My daughter said it felt like it was worth *five sessions* from [other coaches in the valley]."
“Wow, wow, wow! What a gift this "Competition Prep" email is. (Sure wish I’d had something like this during our first ever competition at another studio previously. Would have been so helpful and saved us so much stress.) The time, effort, and attention to detail that it took to put this together is much appreciated. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!”
“I know my dancer is not only better off for the coaching she is getting, she is also better off with the internal mindset the whole studio is giving. Thank you.”
“I was really proud of her and her energy tonight. She was so excited to be on stage! She is getting such great training at CADA. So thankful we found you!”
"I love how Rachel teaches! She doesn’t just teach a step or a dance, but teaches conceptually - encouraging students to think and process along with the movements. I feel lucky my daughter had her as a teacher!”
“My daughter has had a stepping stone up to gain back her confidence from simple arms wrapped around her by Candice. This was a huge turning point in my daughter’s learning that it's okay not to be perfect, and CADA company members and teachers love her no matter what and will be alongside her every step of the way encouraging her with love and support.”
“I love how much intention is given to the dance education and I feel my daughter’s confidence and passion for dance is stronger than ever. I’m thankful to give this to her. Thank you.”
“I love the mindset that growth is the reward! That is what was missing 100% at our last studio!”
"Candice was so nice! She really pushed me, which is something that I’ve been wanting. I want to dance here.”
“I’d been there for an hour and already learned things I didn’t even know I could do. Candice pushed and encouraged me. She corrected and gave me advice. She was kind and reassuring, but also demanding. She told me I have great potential and made me believe I could become a better dancer. At the end of the lesson, she made me list all of the things I had learned from memory. That day I walked out beaming. I knew I would be returning there soon.”
“I can’t tell you how many times my daughter tells me how much she loves her team and how awesome it feels with everyone. She says, “It actually feels like a team and it’s so nice!", pretty much every time I pick her up on the way home. She loves being with these girls and that makes me more happy than anything.”
“Rachel! My daughter LOVED your class today. She said it was 'the most fun dance class I’ve ever attended'. I asked her why and she said it was because of the one-on-one attention, the music, and the style of dance…thank you!”
“Amy [De Vera] is a rare gem in the dance community who combines bodily intelligence with relatable context and humor. She connects well with peers and students and helps to build an inclusive studio environment. Amy has a unique and holistic lens on the body, which enables others to view their bodies with kind eyes while moving. Amy encourages her dancers to make conscious choices while moving, challenging dancers to move from an embodied, internal place rather than a superficial connection. This has made students with strong technical background approach technique again with a mature, fresh, and long lasting movement theory in mind. Content like that empowers students in a dance scope, but also in everyday life. Amy is deeply committed to her craft, and to her employers and students. She gives a great amount of her time to continuing her education and making sure she is teaching the most beneficial class she can. Amy is vibrant, ambitious, engaging, well-informed, qualified, creative, and an absolute joy to be around. If you have the chance to take class from Amy, I definitely would not pass up the opportunity to connect with one of the industry’s top rising dance educators in Idaho. We love our Amy De Vera!“
"Madie explains technique in a way that makes it 'click' for dancers like we've never seen before."
“Something I find really cool about CADA is that mental health is more important over everything else. We talk to each other about things that are going on in our lives; our worries, our stresses, and our joys. CADA has created a safe place for us dancers and I am so grateful. Dance is not just hard physically but it is also hard mentally: we are hard on ourselves, we compare ourselves to others, and we negatively judge ourselves. It is important we strengthen our minds like we strengthen our muscles.”
"My daughter really enjoys the studio, the summer classes, master classes and the people. Everyone is super nice, almost like a large family. We are excited to start the new 22-23 season of classes."
"I feel like I learned a lot from just one week. The instructors were fun and amazing! I had a great experience and I will definitely be joining this studio for my dance training."
“I love how the staff members put priority on each student. it has helped me improve and achieve my personal goals!”
“Hello! I am a parent of a beautiful 5 year old girl. I am always looking for opportunities for my daughter and fortunately for me she has a keen eye for amazing opportunities. We came across a free class from CADA Dance Studio. I knew she needed to be able to be more active through the winter, spread her wings and have more fun. She is always so anxious to get out into the world and meet people. She loves trying new things. We went to the class, half way through-she told me the class we tried is exactly what she wanted and needed-not to change it. Low and behold a month in and her smile grows bigger and bigger. She wouldn’t miss class for anything because she has so much fun. Her confidence is so unreal, it is just amazing as being her Mom to watch. I think these classes and opportunities are just amazing. My daughter and I are very fortunate to have such wonderful experiences! On that note, we THANK YOU so very much CADA Dance Studio!😀 We thank you for being flexible with schedules. We thank you for the great communication. We thank you for being considerate and Caring. We thank you for being flexible on the expenses dead lines especially, we are thankful for getting a chance to be apart of your program regardless of the expenses! I am sure there are many out there that don’t try to grasp these opportunities because they don’t think they can make it happen for their children because of money or time. I am proof that flexibility and communication can open opportunities for our children. After all, it is what we want for our children right! Well, for me, that is how I see CADA. They are a warm and very understanding staff. They really do care about the kids.
Again, thank you CADA Dance Studio! My little girl is rocking it in class and growing like a flower in life. I am so very proud!!”
“On the whole year of gymnastics classes she had before coming to CADA, she didn’t improve as much as with Miss Talía. She is the best, she cares about Hannah and she is just an amazing tumbling teacher, we are sooo surprise of how much she has improve in 6-8 weeks of classes with her. So if she teaches Wednesday as well, we will like to keep her class on Wednesday. Thank you so much!!!”
“My Child loves CADA the staff is patient and kind, with the kids”
“Teachers are amazing and very knowledgeable. My child has gained skills and confidence”
“My daughter loves CADA! She’s in two classes back to back on one night… it’s perfect!”
“This studio has checked off everything on our dance list in a studio we wanted to have and have been searching for many years . We are more then pleased of the variety of classes they offer to give you the most experience for the future of the dance world. They give you every option and avenue to follow your dreams with also focusing on the mental health of the dancers. Highly recommend!”

“Our daughter just started tumbling and loves it! She can be a little anxious about new experiences but the staff was so sweet and friendly and made her feel so comfortable.”
“CADA has been such a wonderful experience. My daughter is 8, and we have been to other dance studios in the past.

Would recommend for anyone looking for a dance home!”

“A great dance school! It’s very engaging and playful for small kids. The teachers are inspiring and know the approach to shy little ones. We are the second year with CADA and love it.”
“My 3 year old just started at CADA dance studio and loves it! I love that she immediately comes running out of class and demonstrates what she’s learned. They are teaching her the fundamentals that will set her up for success for years to come, and doing it in a fun and positive environment!”
“Love this dance studio. Everyone I’ve met either teaching, or working for the studio have been beyond helpful, kind, and welcoming. The teachers are truly great with the dancers. Class sizes do not seem overly crowded which allows teachers time to work with your child and to make sure they are mastering their dance or tumbling skills. Really love the environment and enthusiasm. The studio is well taken care of, clean and welcoming. Truly a great place.”
“We were unsure about how our daughter would do being that she is super shy. CADA quickly diminished our worries. Our daughter now wants to be there everyday. She always tells me she loves her teachers after every class. Thank you CADA for bringing her out of her shell & encouraging her to keep going! & treating the parents just as well!”
“My daughter has always been extremely shy and timid. We have tried other dance studios but CADA is where she has really blossomed and come out of her shell. They keep the class sizes small and it is such a warm, friendly and fun environment!”
“CADA has been amazing for my daughter! We love the small classes and the personal instruction you receive. My daughter's skills have drastically improved. By far, my favorite dance studio we have encountered!”
“We have loved CADA dance for our daughter. The instructors are top notch and we sincerely appreciate the mission of the studio. The class sizes are smaller which gives our daughter the personal attention she needs to grow. So thankful for this studio!”

Miss Meg: "I love teaching at CADA. I love that all my students are constantly encouraged to be respectful and supportive of the people around them. Our studio values mental health and how growth mindset is so important to prevent burnout. At CADA, we provide students with personalized feedback, as well as team building classes so that they can grow both as an individual and a team player. Students are always welcome to approach any of the staff as a safe space to communicate with us about anything."
Miss Rachel: "I’ve taught at several studios throughout Utah and Idaho over the past 20 years, and nothing compares to my experience working at CADA. It’s an incredible, high quality environment and I can’t help but smile every time I walk in. The entire staff works together to create the best training plan for our dancers as well as the best environment for them to grow in. The families at CADA are supportive of each other and of the teachers and I feel so lucky to be a part of this amazing program."
Miss Talia: "I am a teacher at CADA, and I am so thankful to be a part of such a unique dance studio. Smaller class sizes allow me to get to know each student personally, and form lessons that are channeled toward each individual dancer and their specific areas of growth. My goal is to make sure my students can combine the excitement of dance with the satisfaction of working hard, which the environment at CADA supports."
Miss Heather: "I love working as a teacher at CADA! It has the best environment as everyone is so welcoming and friendly and you can tell how much everyone loves each other. All of the teachers are so knowledgeable and you can tell how much they want to help each girl improve individually. Working for Candice has been wonderful and she has created such an amazing program for the girls! I highly recommend sending your daughters to CADA!"
