About KENNEDY DANCE THEATRE

Kennedy Dance Theatre ('KDT') opened up as a performing arts studio in 1973 in Pasadena, TX on a $200 investment. Director and Founder Mary Lee Kennedy wanted to establish a studio that could offer a comprehensive artistic experience with dance, musical theatre, performing arts classes and more. Although the studio has grown and changed over the years, it continues to be one of the most well known and premiere dance studios in the Houston area, offering classes with a high standard of style, technique, and performance.

We offer a professionally trained staff bringing quality dance education to over 500 students. There are more than 100 classes offered each week in ballet, tap, jazz, contemporary, lyrical, hip hop, aerial fabric, musical theatre and fitness for ages 2 through adult.

​

KDT is also dedicated to giving back to the community by performing for local events and organizations free of charge. Our Special Needs Program offers free dance classes to students with Down syndrome, autism, and other developmental disabilities. Teachers and student assistants involved volunteer their time each week to help these students improve their motor skills, confidence, and socialization while having fun. Additionally, KDT offers a scholarship fund to help students pursue their dreams in dance who otherwise could not afford instruction. Additionally, through its sister program Manners Pro, KDT offers etiquette consulting services for ages 4 - adult.
