Dance Company History & Achievements

The MCC Dance Company was established in 1976. The MCC Dance Company performs high-energy jazz, pom, and hip-hop. The team is under Athletics and are treated as student-athletes. An important part of our schedule is continually giving back to the community through performances and fundraising activities for charitable donations.
