Our mission is to invite and engage the St. Louis community to experience the healing art of movement as participants, patrons or professionals. We weave history, education and culture into all our artistic endeavors and increase access to dance for all. Pack Dance is an arts community that reflects the diverse identities of the residents of St. Louis and its surrounding region. We demonstrate and practice a commitment to racial and cultural equity through the dance styles we offer, by fusing different dance styles into our works, and by centering diversity in hiring teaching artists. We are committed to using dance to incubate a compassionate shared experience with creative practices that center and celebrate diverse cultures, and to make classes and performances accessible to all.
