From ARC Dance
ARC Dance consists of ARC Dance School (formerly ARC School of Ballet) and ARC Dance Company. ARC Dance School's mission is to provide high-quality classical ballet training in an encouraging atmosphere, thus promoting personal growth and artistic self–expression. ARC Dance Company is committed to high production and artistic values while making dance more accessible to the wider public by presenting a diverse repertoire in intimate venues. ARC fosters dance as an art form through professional performances, educational programs, and the creative work of contemporary dance makers.
My neurodiverse daughter attended ARC from age 3-8 and loved it! Then pandemic hit and she declined to attend zoom classes and joined a bunch of other sports which she excelled at. Fast forward 3 years and having no real solid interest in those sports she begged to go back to ARC because she missed the dance classes and the comraderie from both the dancers and the instructors, especially the director Ms. Marie. I’m deeply grateful for their welcoming her back with open arms. The consistency of instruction and professionalism are outstanding and my kiddo has gotten to take part in 6 Nutcracker performances and many spring recitals too! Highly recommend!
As an adult ballet student, I find Miss Marie's class very helpful. She gives clear instructions and explains moves patiently. Her constructive feedback provides great information for me to keep improving. You learn real ballet and have a good time in class here.
I take Open adult ballet classes at ARC and really enjoy them but I also just tried two of ARC's Open Fitness classes, one was a Rebound Bounce, on a small trampoline, and the other was a Stretch, Strengthen, and Tone, using aerial equipment, and they were both lots of fun. I'm an older student and these new classes were gentle, progressive, different, and yes, really fun. This is a great community dance and fitness school.
