The East Bay Dance Center (EBDC) was established in 1990 by Bonnie Sita to offer dance in its many forms to all ages and levels and to provide quality performances and performing opportunities in the community.
We offer a fun, clean and safe environment where children and adults can learn a variety of dance. Our caring, professional staff has many years of dance and teaching experience.
The East Bay Dance Center is located in the Glenview District of Oakland. Nearby are restaurants, cafes, and a variety of shops and businesses for your enjoyment and convenience.
Classes, Camps and After-School Program
We offer year-round classes in jazz, ballet, tap, hip-hop and acrobatics/tumbling for ages 3-adults as well as Dance Camps through the school holidays and summer. A special After-School Program is offered on Wednesdays. Winter camp information for 2007 will be posted soon.
Move Dance Theatre (EBDC)
East Bay Dance has three performing companies:
- Move Dance Theatre (established in 1984 by Bonnie Sita and the late Toney Pennewell) for teens and adults
- MDT II (ages 12-17)

MDT offers dancers pre-professional and professional training and performing opportunities. Move Dance Theatre received a Mayoral Proclamation in 1994 for their artistic contributions to the City of Oakland.
