About Gulf Coast Dance Theater

Our goal -  is to provide opportunities for dancers to perform in professional venues, to  present their skills in performance art to the community, and to make dance accessible and affordable for everyone. ​

Dancers who train with Gulf Coast Dance Theater will learn to love dance while building confidence, work ethic, and discipline. If desired, dancers can use these skills and experience to pursue a career, or attend college program in dance. In addition, the dancers will make lifelong friends, have endless amounts of performance opportunities, and receive excellent mentorship from our instructors. ​We also believe that it is important to create strong professional relationships 
with our students, and once they graduate or move on, we continue to nurture and promote growth. ​

Gulf Coast Dance Theater is organized for the primary purpose of providing a community forum for dancers. Gulf Coast Dance Theater provides comprehensive artistic education, that encourages excellence in the art of dance, while instilling a true love and passion for the art form. 

This corporation is organized exclusively for charitable and educational  purposes within the meaning of Section 501(c)3 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and not for financial gain.

         Wow, I can’t believe that this is our 12th year of productions for Gulf Coast Dance Theater! 
             I am so thankful for the dancers’ hard work and dedication to all of our shows.  In addition, it is very important to thank my staff and board members for all their hard work this past season.  I could not have accomplished as much without their help.  I would also like to thank you, the parents, for being there to support your dancer’s desire to be part of Gulf Coast Dance Theater.     "
