If you have not yet had the pleasure of seeing the Civic Dance Company perform, be prepared to have your socks knocked off. Our dancers train for years in the Park and Rec program and Company is truly a dance conservatory type environment.
When Mia Michaels of "So You Think You Can Dance" came down to work with the dancers recently, she put it best: "I work with dancers all over the world, it is very rare that they can pick up my hardest combinations...your dancers did. I am truly impressed".
Please come and join us and see what the buzz is in the dance community around San Diego.
John Malashock of Malashock Dance says "The quality and variety of work is a tremendous testament to your vision and the clear qualifications of teachers and choreographers. Bravo!". Katherine Irey of Stage 7 Dance says "The dancers rose to every challenge and gave their all to the communication of the choreographers' themes and ideas. Wow!!"

San Diego Civic Dance Arts
Celebrating over 70 years of Dance Education in San Diego.
Founded in 1942, San Diego Civic Dance Arts has introduced hundreds of thousands of citizens to the art form of dance and has been lauded as the standard for which other city-wide dance programs nationwide measure themselves. As part of the City’s Park and Recreation Department, San Diego Civic Dance Arts provides affordable dance training at 22 Recreation Centers throughout San Diego County as well as in several dance facilities in Balboa Park. With over 2600 students enrolled, the program provides our students, ages 3 to Senior Citizen, the chance to participate in a wide variety of classes such as tap, jazz, ballet, modern, musical theater, breakdance, hip hop, Hawaiian and even Zumba®. San Diego Civic Dance Arts is a high quality accessible program which, thanks to the City of San Diego's low income fee waiver program, ensures that anyone who wishes to dance in San Diego is able to do so.
San Diego Civic Dance Association
Mission Statement
Our mission is to support and promote a premiere dance arts program and an appreciation of the arts, in cooperation with the San Diego Park and Recreation Department Dance Arts Program.
San Diego Civic Dance Association is a non-profit, all volunteer, public benefit organization. Every year, our dedicated volunteers give over 20,000 hours of their time to support the many programs of the City of San Diego’s Civic Dance Arts program. While the City fee covers the cost of the dance classes, each year our hardworking volunteers work to raise over $100,000 to cover the costs of our performances and additional programs.
San Diego Civic Dance Association funds and produces performance opportunities for dancers taking classes with the City program. From Recitals, Collage, December Nights, Dance Fair and many more, our pledge is to provide a complete education and performance experience for our dance community.
In addition to performance opportunities, SDCDA funds financial aid, merit scholarships, college scholarships, costume assistance as well as specialty dance training opportunities for both dancer and teachers alike.
Our pledge is to build and maintain a strong dance program that supports all of our students and teachers, no matter their age or ability level.
