Despite the circumstances of COVID-19, DancePak continues to incorporate new elements into its season to improve the team's results and overall experience, provide dancers with an environment to continue training in, and create bonds with other dancers and the Ryerson community.
Ryerson DancePak is still waiting on confirmation to compete at this time, however the team is continuing to train, choreograph, and rehearse despite the outcomes of that decision.
