ARC serves the community through its school’s dance training programs as well as professional company concerts at the Leo Kreielsheimer and Bagley Wright Theatres at Seattle Center. The Company fosters the art of dance by producing the creative work of current dance makers on an ensemble of classically-trained, professional dancers.
Our School offers classes in ballet, jazz/contemporary, and tap of exceptional quality for dancers of all ages and backgrounds. We work to meet students’ varying interests in dance, ranging from beginning to adult education to the professional career bound.
