Encounter

We’re stepping away from the toxic culture of competition where teammates are seen as obstacles, and striving for trophies takes priority over people. Instead, we dance with unity and purpose—sharing a message of hope and freedom— while encouraging one another in both excellence and character.. 

Have a dancer in Chapter 4 -8? Join Encounter Outreach for the 2025-2026 season. 

Mission

Our mission is the definition of who we are.
We are a Spirit-led dance outreach committed to redefining the divine power of dance


It is our goal that every student’s love for the Lord is so evident in their presence and dancing that audience members are left feeling encouraged and reminded of the love that our Lord provides.

"Two of my daughters dance with Encounter Performing Arts Company, and I have been able to witness firsthand the quality of their training. Not only have they grown in technical skill, but they have also developed in strength of character, all while building wholesome relationships to last a lifetime. The art Encounter produces is skillful, beautiful, and worshipful, but the experience their artists are gaining goes so much deeper than dance. Truly, theirs is an instruction that forms the whole person and a ministry that touches the heart."
