Marek Dance

Mareck Dance (previously Missouri Contemporary Ballet) launched in 2006 with a bold vision to bring a professional contemporary ballet dance company to the progressive, vibrant arts scene in mid-Missouri. Founder Karen Mareck Grundy, the company’s Artistic and Executive Director, grew Mareck Dance from a handful of dancers presenting local performances into a fully-fledged dance company. Mareck Dance recruits professional dancers from throughout the US and abroad, operates a non profit dance school, and implements numerous outreach programs that engage the broader community, and children, senior citizens, and the differently abled in particular.
