Kara Anderson's Dance Studio

Kara Anderson's Dance Studio has been a staple in the dance community since 1996, first opening its doors in North Brookfield, MA. The studio was founded by Kara Anderson, who remains the owner and main teacher to this day. With a humble beginning, Kara was the only teacher at the studio, but as the years went by and the studio grew quickly, the faculty expanded to include 11 talented and dedicated teachers. In 2011, the studio opened its second location in Southbridge, MA, the very same studio where Kara trained as a child.

At Kara Anderson's Dance Studio, we pride ourselves on being a dance family. We understand that not all children dance to become professional dancers, but to keep dance in their lives and develop important skills such as coordination, poise, grace, self-expression, and creative thinking. Our goal is to boost self-esteem and confidence, and to help our students build a lifelong appreciation for music, dance, and the arts. We believe that it is essential for children to be engaged in physical activities that are not only healthy but also enjoyable, and we strive to provide an atmosphere that is both fun and educational.

Testimonials

We are proud to have many satisfied families as part of our dance family. Here are what some of them have to say about their experience at Kara Anderson's Dance Studio:

"We are fairly new to the KADS family, as my daughter is only 4. However she has been dancing for the past 2 years there (both studios) and has quickly gone from one class to now having 4 a week. She was a little shy at first, but has now grown to love all the teachers, even if it's her first class with them. She trust the studios and the atmosphere they create. As the youngest of 4 kids and being the only girl in her home, KADS has created a special place for my daughter to grow. I'm very thankful we have such a great dance studio in our community." -Kimberly Dolan

"My daughter has been dancing at Kara Anderson Dance Studio since 3 years old and is now 10 years old. The dance studio is Nia's second home, it's more than a place to dance. It's a place where strong relationships are created, dancers and teachers become family the moment you enter. Nia has grown so much in dance and personally, thanks to being apart of the KADS family! KADS has a wonderful and welcoming staff. Highly recommended, come join the KADS family!" - Noi Phommachanh
