ABOUT THE STUDIO

Spin Cycle 2019.jpg

The ever-growing popularity of Cynthia King Dance Studio (CKDS) is a testament to Artistic Director Cynthia King’s commitment to progressive dance education. CKDS has been a vital part of Brooklyn’s rich dance culture for over two decades, consistently presenting relevant and thought-provoking work. Now embarking upon its twenty-second year, the studio continues to train dancers of all ages and abilities in residence at FJC, Church Ave & E. 5th Street.

OUR PHILOSOPHY

Our goal is to provide our students with the tools necessary to reach their full potential, as technicians, artists, and members of an ensemble. We believe that dancers excel in a structured environment, in which hard work and dedication are valued, and success is earned. Whether learning to be on time for class, or how to execute a grand jeté, our students are taught invaluable lessons that will help them throughout their lives.

improving the world at large

Livestock is the primary contributor to greenhouse gasses, and living a vegan lifestyle is one of the best things an individual can do to simultaneously save the lives of animals, improve their own health, and help the environment. In 2010 the United Nations released a report urging a global shift away from the consumption of animal products in order to reduce negative impacts to the environment. There is no question that by moving to a plant-based diet and refraining from using animal products in our everyday lives, we improve the world at large. At Cynthia King Dance Studio, we wear vegan ballet slippers and all other costuming is cruelty free.
