Mack PAC

Mack Avenue Performing arts company

Welcome to Mack Avenue Dance Center’s MACK PAC, where we believe in the transformative power of dance and performance. Our mission is to nurture every dancer’s unique talent and passion while fostering a supportive and inspiring environment.

MACK PAC is a comprehensive training curriculum in ballet, jazz, modern/contemporary, and a variety of other styles to create a skilled and well-rounded dancer. The focus on technique, versatility, artistry, and performance instills the work ethic and commitment needed to succeed in a college arts program or in the professional world. Our dancers have gone on to study at Juilliard, Michigan State University, University of Michigan, Syracuse, Marymount Manhattan College, and Norwalk Conservatory of the Arts. They have danced on stages in New York City, the World Dance Movement in Italy, the Paris Opera House, and more.

The program requires a high level of commitment, a passion for dance, a good work ethic, and a drive for self-improvement. We do not expect perfection, just discipline and dedication. Acceptance is based on technical ability, potential for growth, performance quality, and a strong willingness to commit to your training, your fellow dancers, and your health.

This year, we are pleased to announce a more inclusive 3-tier Competitive Performing Arts Program designed to accommodate the dancers’ and their families’ schedules and goals.

If you are interested in taking your training to the next level, please email cori@mackavenuedancecenter.com.

Requirements:

Dancers ages 7 and up are eligible for this program based on audition and/or director recommendation.  Progression into and within MACK PAC depends on the skill of the dancer and his/her ability to consistently demonstrate the correct alignment, strong technique, and ability to take corrections necessary to move efficiently and safely.
