Students progress through a structured level system.
We offer two primary levels and six secondary levels for every style including hip hop, contemporary, jazz, tap, and ballet. Each student’s progress is regularly evaluated to provide opportunities for growth and advancement. Our faculty use their understanding of each student as well as years of dance and education experience to place students in classes where they can simultaneously build self-confidence and feel challenged.

Parents are an amazing part of our Ace family.

"We couldn’t be happier with our experience at Ace Dance Academy in Walnut Creek! Our two daughters have been dancing with Ace for the past 8 years, and they have absolutely loved every moment. They’ve had the opportunity to explore a variety of styles, including hip hop, contemporary, jazz, ballet, and tap.
Even during the challenges of COVID, Ace Dance Academy went above and beyond by offering online classes, ensuring that the students stayed connected and continued to grow in their dance journey. The instructors are professional, patient, and incredibly knowledgeable across all dance styles. Their passion for teaching has helped our daughters not only improve their skills, but also build confidence and a love for performing, especially in the much-anticipated Annual Productions.
Jenny Hudson, the owner, creates a warm and welcoming environment where both students and families feel at home. The sense of community at Ace is truly special, with students who are kind, encouraging, and supportive.
If we had to make the choice all over again, we would choose Ace Dance Academy 100 times out of 100! We’re grateful for all the wonderful experiences so far and look forward to many more years of dancing with this amazing academy."
