Class Act Dance Troupe, Inc (CADT) was formed in 1986 to provide students with additional opportunities to utilize their training by performing for various events, organizations and participating in competitions. CADT is a separate, not-for-profit corporation consisting of a senior, junior and petite troupe, with members ranging in age from eight to eighteen. The troupes have performed for Six Flags Great America, Disney World and a variety of local organizations and area schools. They have received multiple awards at regional and national competitions, such as Dance Makers, Chicago National Association of Dance Masters and Dance Relief and Footloose, Inc..

Members are selected by audition and are selected on the basis of stage presence, ability to learn combinations quickly, execution of steps and attitude. The troupe continues year-round ballet training and attends either the fall or summer CNADM convention. The members also rehearse five hours per week in addition to their weekly classes and hold an annual performance each spring at the Lakeview Middle School Auditorium. The troupe provides a creative outlet and unique opportunities to our students that cannot be found anywhere else in the area.

CADT is available for performances throughout the area. If you would like more information or to schedule a performance, please contact Tammy Seibold at the studio (574) 267-7055.
