Children's Dance Theater runs themed summer camps at its Federal Way studio combining dance, art, and theater, with small groups working a weekly theme through dance skills and art projects. Each week is split into a morning and an afternoon session; families register for a half day or enroll in both sessions for a full day. Core camps serve ages 3-12, with a youth theater camp for ages 7-12, a teen theater camp for ages 13-18, and an art camp for grades 1-5. The company also operates a studio in Auburn.

Powered by GoogleLove the Federal Way Theater program! They help children reach their potential and put on amazing productions! My child started here last summer and has attended every season since!
Negative experience, lack of professionalism and respect toward students. Some instructors and leaders appear to have little patience for younger kids (general observation). Of course, some staff are great, specifically the music instructor Ms. K. Review is relevant to the Federal Way (2-week theater camp Moana) and Auburn (1-week of summer camp). The theater director of one of the summer productions had children that participated in the program. The director (an adult) decided to shared how she ‘doesn’t like…” my 9 year old with her family and the children (innocently) shared that with my child. INCREDIBLY unprofessional, unkind and likely biased. When I contacted the organization, they acknowledged the incident occurred but failed to refund the remaining days of camp. Why would I want my child to attend an organization with leadership like this? They also failed to provide an apology for the situation. My child had no reported behavior issues. Completely unacceptable. I’ve seen that the organization is inclusive of gender identity and orientation of participants. I cannot report a great deal of ethnic diversity. This statement was made targeting an ethnic participant. I can’t say we felt warmly welcomed but this situation, and the response, confirmed it. Regardless of the motivation behind the directors statements her behavior is shameful.
I had high hopes when we joined this studio, but I was deeply disappointed by the experience—especially with the studio director. I found them dismissive and unhelpful when I tried to address concerns about my daughter’s experience. What made it worse was that the supporting staff seemed either unable or unwilling to assist. There was a lack of communication, professionalism, and basic courtesy that made us feel unheard and unwelcome. I expected a more supportive and child-focused environment, and unfortunately, this studio did not deliver.
All the instructors are so wonderful here and at the Auburn location! We love their summer camps too! The end of year recital is so well done! My son absolutely loves the art class here. They use different techniques and various mediums with themed art projects.
I love bringing my kids to Prestige Dance Studio! It's affordable, age appropriate, and focuses on each child - assisting with life skills even beyond dance! Love it so much, I chose to be an instructor here, too! I especially love building kids up during our July Summer Camps - which reflects the direction of Stephanie! Looking forward to many more years of dance family love & support!
