The Program
We offer small classes and private lessons online, and are slowly transitioning to offer in-person sessions again.
All sessions are designed to advance your abilities. We offer everything you need to be successful.
(Evaluations and training strategies are included, and this is also an excellent program for athletes.)
We also offer online pre-recorded lessons that gives you more access to our unique program!
(Visit the Online Access tab for more information.)

We also offer:

These sessions are designed to develop breathtaking lines and extensions, increase your stamina and agility, and help you feel confident with turns, floor work, footwork, dance vocabulary, performing and recalling choreography, and executing ballet adage/allegro.
We also provide authentic choreography that showcase each dancer's strengths, and we help each dancer enter competitions and auditions with the skills they need to be confident and successful.
Where We Are
For our in-person sessions, we've partnered up our colleagues to offer sessions and classes at two locations!
Jai Dee & Wellness
5610 N Nebraska Ave, Tampa, FL 33604
Rhapsody Ballroom
12101 N 56th St, Tampa, FL 33617
Both spaces are large, offer proper ventilation, and are cleaned properly.
Everyone is required to enter and exit the building with masks.
Everyone will be required to wear a mask when a 6 foot distance cannot be achieved, or when there is a movement combination that causes greater inhalation/exhalation.
(If you do not feel well, please do not come to class. Thank you.)
Virtual Sessions
For our virtual sessions, we ask that you be:
1. Advanced-beginner
2. Age 10 or older
3. Focused and Determined
Our founder, Laren Cavicchio, began working with gymnasts and dancers via video chat in 2013 on an as-needed basis throughout the United States. She is accessible via Zoom and has created a practice for dancers and athletes, worldwide.
Who We Are
We know that dancers are born with strong instincts to learn more, do more, and achieve more, and we know this because we are trained dancers who have evolved into experienced and passionate dance educators.
We know that achievements are attained through combining knowledge, effort, and practice over time, and that's why we continue to advance ourselves and stay current with the industry.
We are sincere when we say that we will bring to you the best dance training, and do this in an attentive, educational, and supportive environment. We love the process of learning and advancing through challenges, and we love what we do.
Our love and respect for achievements in dance is what inspires us to invest ourselves into making CDT the go-to program for all dancers who are seeking more.
Our program offers exceptional technical training, turn clinics, flexibility training with strengthening protocols, and choreography and coaching for audition preparations and dance competitions in all styles including ballroom. Our choreography is always original, authentic, and purposely crafted to show each dancer's strengths while also providing growth, over time, for that dancer.
The Continuous Dance Training program gives the dancer what is required to master techniques, artistic styles, and physical efficiency. Our dancers are recognized at national dance conventions and competitions, and are awarded scholarships as well as invitations into dance programs because we provide strong (and correct) dance training as well as solid performance coaching.
We work with all ages and levels, future champions, and future conservatory and university students. We are committed to your success, and we are all in!
