Surrendered School of Dance, formerly called Surrendered School of the Arts[1][2] was established in 2009 as the official dance school of Paradosi Ballet Company in Tacoma, Washington, US.
The school's primary teaching focus is ballet supplemented with contemporary dance and modern dance. Dance classes are offered for students from the age of three through adult.
The school teaches at two campuses based in Tacoma and Orting in Washington. The school also teaches in after school programs at private schools in Gig Harbor and Tacoma.
History[edit]
Surrendered School of Dance operates as an integral part of Paradosi Ballet Company, a Washington State-based non-profit organization. Paradosi Ballet Company is the first professional Christian dance company in the Pacific Northwest that was founded in 2007 with the goal of sharing the love of God through dance, drama and personal witness.[3]
Early in the history of the organization, the directors saw a need for high quality classical ballet instruction delivered in a nurturing, family friendly, age appropriate manner in the community. In 2009 Surrendered School of Dance was formed to meet these objectives. The schools first dance studio was located in Edgewood before moving to its current location inside Paradosi Ballet Company's studio in Tacoma.
