Is KAD leaving Kansas City, Kansas?
No. KCK remains at the heart of KAD and our long-term vision. Our roots and community are here, and programming will continue as we grow into additional areas.
Our Locations
One KAD. Multiple Spaces. One Bigger Vision.
KAD’s expansion is about more than adding locations. Each space serves a different purpose within our larger mission — honoring our roots, expanding opportunities for families, and increasing access to performing arts throughout our community.

Why we expanded
We expanded our classroom
As our programs, dancers, and vision grew, we chose not to rush into another familiar space. We built a thoughtful network of locations that gives our faculty flexibility, our programs room to expand, and our families greater access to high-quality performing arts education across the metro.
We didn’t lose our studio. We expanded our classroom.
- More space for company training and rehearsals
- Larger rooms for movement and choreography
- Greater access to strength and conditioning resources
- More specialized workshops and Performance Academy opportunities
- Additional class locations for families across the metro
- Room to grow without compromising training quality
One KAD
Multiple spaces. One standard.
Wherever dancers train, they experience the same faculty, expectations, technique, artistry, confidence, discipline, character, and KAD culture.
One community. One vision.
Why are classes held at multiple locations?
Different programs have different space and training needs. Multiple facilities let us place classes and rehearsals in environments that best support each dancer.
Is City Center Fitness replacing KAD?
No. City Center Fitness is one of KAD’s training partners and locations. KAD remains an independent performing arts organization with its own faculty, curriculum, programming, and leadership.
Will the KAD experience change?
It will continue to grow, but the heart of KAD remains the same: excellent technique, performance training, mentorship, opportunity, and community.
The next chapter
Same KAD. Same heart. More opportunities.
We’re growing toward a future that blends performing arts, athletic development, creativity, community, and opportunity — while strengthening our KCK home and planning intentionally for what comes next.
