Candela Dance Studio opened in 2014 in a small upstairs space at 6th and H streets. The studio is a dream come true, a crazy idea fueled by a Thai iced tea and a vision of sharing the joy that dance can bring. Candela’s launch was funded by a Kickstarter crowdfunding campaign - we’ve always been the product of a supportive community!

Since our opening, thousands of dancers have come through our doors. Friendships have formed, romances have blossomed, and many of our dancers have found themselves with an extra spring in their step, having discovered a whole new world of expression and connection on the dance floor.

We’ve operated at several locations over time, and closed for 2 years during COVID. We are now in a space and neighborhood we adore at 6th and D streets in downtown Grants Pass.

Dance is good for your body, mind, and soul ~ come experience the magic for yourself! It is never too late to try dancing for the first time.
