Inspiring Children Through the Arts

Chicago Dance Institute (CDI) is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit arts education organization that brings dance to Chicago's youth.

Through in-school partnerships, residencies, and public performances, CDI operates as a catalyst to engage children and motivate them towards excellence.

It is founded with the knowledge that the arts have a unique power to engage and motivate children, while developing a standard of discipline, confidence, and expression.
