Becca Cenatiempo

Becca Cenatiempo is a passionate and experienced dance teacher with over 15 years of dedication to inspiring and nurturing young minds. Recently, she fulfilled her dream by opening KDC Studios in Auburn, California—a heartfelt tribute to her late father, whose initials grace the studio's name. Through KDC Studios, Becca creates a space where creativity, growth, and confidence flourish.

Becca’s dance journey began at Sacramento-area studios, including KM Dance Arts Studio, before studying Dance at AMDA Los Angeles. She has served as the director and producer of Backyard Productions since 2015, using her leadership to ignite a love for acting and storytelling in her community. Additionally, her impact extends to athletics, having been the head coach of the Auburn Robalos swim team and assistant coach for Placer High School’s swim team.

What truly defines Becca is her unique ability to bring out the best in every child—not just in the arts, but in life. Through her teaching and mentoring, she empowers her students to embrace their potential and thrive, making a lasting difference both inside and outside the studio.
