Since 1974, Plumb Performing Arts Center (PPAC)has been dedicated to providing students with a wide variety of programs in dance and the performing arts.
Under the direction of owner/dancer Lisa Plumb, Plumb Performing Arts Center is considered to be one of the finest teaching facilities in the Valley. This multi-faceted center for the arts offers programs for the serious dancer or performer, or for those who just want to take classes for recreational purposes.

The dance and performing arts classes at PPAC can give each student the opportunity to participate in, and experience, a course of study that will benefit them physically, challenge them mentally, provide self-confidence, teach self-discipline, build character, and allow personal expression in a healthy manner. Students that experience the sheer joy of self- achievement develop a sense of self confidence and esteem for themselves that will spur them ever onward in all of their life endeavors.

The diversified staff at PPAC is made up of over 25 highly qualified instructors teaching a variety of performing arts and dance styles. All instructors have worked together within their dance, voice, or acting realms to create a graded curriculum and syllabus specific to PPAC. Parents can be assured that all instructors at PPAC are working within these guidelines and that, with regular attendance, their students will progress quickly, correctly and safely! All instructors have extensive professional and/or teaching backgrounds including a four-time Olympic gold medalist, a Radio City Rockette, a reality show star, and choreographers with international experience. This level of background knowledge with our instructors allows students to get a learning experience unlike any other.

PPAC is committed to holding quarterly master classes, training seminars, teacher workshops, and meetings for its staff. Our teachers are highly committed to teaching and inspiring proper technique, determination, dedication, self-discipline and a love of the performing arts in each student.
