Founded in 2015 and located at 1259 W. Central Ave in Brea, Academy 8:31 has established itself as a premier dance institution.

As an advocate for high-quality dance education, Academy 8:31 incorporates the globally recognized Leap N Learn curriculum. Developed by a team of experts, including a dance educator, a child psychologist, and a doctoral researcher in children’s dance education, Leap N Learn integrates evidence-based research with classroom experience. The curriculum supports children’s physical, cognitive, social, and emotional development while fostering creativity and joy in movement. Leap N Learn is widely utilized across the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Singapore, Australia, and Scotland, demonstrating its effectiveness in cultivating not just skilled dancers but also curious and imaginative lifelong learners.
Reflecting on the studio’s decade-long journey, Academy 8:31 owner and director Krista Casey shared, “At Academy 8:31, we believe in creating a dance experience that’s about more than just technique—it’s about fostering confidence, building community, and making lasting memories. Since opening our doors in 2015, we’ve been dedicated to offering personalized, age-appropriate instruction in small class sizes, ensuring each dancer gets the attention they deserve. Our passionate, dedicated team cultivates an environment where every student feels supported, valued, and encouraged to grow at their own pace.”
The impact of Academy 8:31’s approach is evident in the experiences of its students and families. One parent shared, “I am so happy we found this place. The teachers are all amazing. The teachers here find so much joy in teaching the kids. When my daughter felt discouraged, the teachers were great in encouragement, giving positive feedback, and my daughter went from not wanting to dance to not wanting to stop dancing. She has grown so much in her confidence. Thank you, Academy 8:31!”
As Academy 8:31 celebrates its 10th anniversary and recognition as Leap N Learn Studio of the Year, it remains committed to its mission of inspiring dancers and fostering a lifelong love of movement. With a focus on excellence, community, and innovation, the studio looks forward to continuing its impact for years to come.
