We provide comprehensive, personalized instruction!

First-Rate Studio and Classes

We embrace a learning environment that will prepare you for the path ahead. Our classes incorporate traditional learning styles as well as hands-on experiences and our class sizes are small to ensure that each student gets the attention they need. We have state-of-the-art raised floors with a professional Marley surface to protect our dancers from injury.  We are conveniently  located in charming downtown Redding in the Cultural Arts District surrounded by local restaurants and coffee shops and directly  across the street from the historic Cascade Theatre.

Dedicated Educators

Our classes are taught by knowledgable teachers who love what they do. Using proven teaching strategies, they make sure that every student finds a path to success.

Our Mission

 The RAP school of theatre and dance is dedicated to building community through the performing arts and providing a home for artists in the Northstate. The RAP offers instruction in Ballet, Tap, Jazz, Hip Hop, Contemporary, Theatre Arts, and Folk Dancing. Since 1997, The Redding Arts Project has been committed to growing dancers to their fullest potential. Owner Diana Christensen says their curriculum  “focuses on the whole dancer with an anatomy-based curriculum to ensure correct technique and the safety of growing bodies.”
