Academy 8:31 offers a curriculum that builds a solid foundation of proper dance technique to help prevent injuries and create consistency in the classroom. The studio focuses on developing the whole child while building strong technical dancers and appealing to students’ natural sense of wonder and creativity. The name 831 refers to Romans 8:31: “If God is for us, who can be against us?” The mission statement says that dedicated teachers are committed to providing quality instruction with an emphasis on building confidence and a lifelong love of dance, and that “Teaching dance is what we do, helping others believe in themselves is who we are.” The studio aims to provide a place where dancers feel like they are part of a family and can share life together inside and outside the studio.
The leadership team lists Krista Casey as the owner. The studio’s history notes that in 1997 they opened their first studio in Placentia, the studio was sold in 2007, and in 2015 they acquired a studio again that became Academy 831. The program states a desire to bless the community they call home through dance and expresses that God has planned something for the community through the studio. One testimonial from a parent says, “My daughter has been attending Academy 831 for three years. We love that the studio is based on teaching the girls to be confident and have fun with dance. We look forward to many more years with the Academy 831 family!” signed by Jen L. Another testimonial from the former studio owners, as recounted on the about page, says, “We have no idea what your beliefs are, but we have been praying and we keep hearing that we planted a seed for someone who has the heart and passion to grow this into what He has planned for the community and maybe that’s you?” Academy 8:31 also offers a free trial with the message “TRY US OUT FOR FREE!” and has an Academy 831 App available for download.
