The Inwood Performing Arts under the direction of Winston and Denna Smith are beginning their 39th season. Over the past 39 years they have established the IPAC as one of West Virginia’s premier training program for dancers. Young children learn in a nurturing atmosphere while developing skills that lay the foundation for a strong technique. This gradual process stimulates the development of confidence and discipline as well as cultivates a love for dance. Our program encourages the study of other contemporary dance forms including Jazz, Tap, Modern, Irish step dance and Ballroom. No matter which path our student’s may follow the study of dance will enhance their discipline for school, work, and everyday life. Over these 39 years IPAC students have been afforded over $600,000 in tuition scholarships, taught by over 300 internationally acclaimed teachers, performed in over 100 Nutcrackers, learned 65 new choreography works, 35 years of exams by the Royal Academy of Dancing, attended 30 Regional Dance America Southeast Ballet Festivals, traveled to 4 National Festivals in Montreal, Pittsburgh, Houston, and Phoenix, and accepted an invitation for an International Tour in China 2001. At the Inwood Performing Arts we have opportunities for every type of dancer so we hope you will choose to dance with us!

The IPAC will be reopening for summer July 6th. Our first priority with reopening is the safety of our dancers, faculty and staff; therefore we have consulted guidelines from state and local government, local health departments, Royal Academy of Dance, and the healthcare professionals in our own IPAC family. We hope that these policies will help to mitigate the transmission of COVID-19 and provide as safe an environment as possible, but this will require everyone’s active participation. We understand that some may not feel comfortable allowing your student back at the studio therefore we will be offering a virtual program that will continue to stimulate and energize your dance lover. If you have vacationed in a COVID -19 Hot Spot we ask that you quarantine 14 days taking virtual classes before returning to the studio. Please familiarize yourself and your dancer with the following procedures. Procedural changes or going all-virtual are always considerations if there are COVID-19 spikes in our surrounding area.
