The year-round school was founded in 1970 as part of the vision of Cleo Parker Robinson, Executive Artistic Director. CPRDS is the home of internationally acclaimed Cleo Parker Robinson Dance Ensemble, and stands as an oasis where a varied population — by gender, age, race or ethnicity — gathers to study and appreciate a modern, cross-cultural approach to the arts. The School offers a full curriculum of modern, jazz, ballet, tap, West African dance, hip-hop, salsa, capoeira, breakdance, and creative movement classes.

Educational Philosophy
Educational outreach efforts are the cornerstone of our organization.
Throughout all program areas we attempt to educate our audiences and in
particular our youth, that our development as an organization rooted in
the African-American tradition comes from a rich tradition of individuals
who have come before us. Through community outreach activities we achieve
this goal. In doing so we honor the gifts of our ancestors, preserve our
heritage, provide role models for youth and ensure that the arts are carried
on by those that come after us.
