Opened in 2001 by award-winning choreographer Debbie Allen and retired NBA star Norman Nixon, the Debbie Allen Dance Academy (DADA) in Culver City, California is a non-profit organization dedicated to expanding the reach of dance and theater arts for the youth of the Greater Los Angeles Area and the world. DADA aims to enrich and transform young lives through arts education – whether students decide to pursue a professional career or not, they will walk away from DADA with discipline, self-esteem, creativity, and self-confidence, all of which are important in life.
Allen and Nixon founded the Debbie Allen Dance Academy to fill a void for the young people of the Greater Los Angeles Area who are interested in learning dance. When the academy opened its doors, hundreds of kids and their parents lined up to enroll. Within a decade, DADA has become world-renowned for its mission, faculty, and alumni, many of whom are now working in film, television, and on Broadway.
