We want to join you in worship!

As Paradosi Ballet Company is a parachurch organization, it is our desire to come along side churches and ministries in leading times of worship while pointing people to Jesus. 


It is our prayer that God will use us as instruments of His love as we dance in worship, share our testimonies, and present His Gospel message.  We do not dance to be entertainers, we dance to worship Jesus and to make Him known.  


We regularly partner with organizations for worship programs during: Church Worship Services and Gatherings, Worship Nights, Women's Ministry Events, Youth Ministry Events, K-12 School (Assemblies - Chapels - Special events), Universities, Assisted Living Facilities, Nursing Homes, Retirement Communities, Rehab Facilities, Homeless Shelters, Multi-Ministry Outreach Events, Fundraisers, Fairs, and Festivals.

Heart of Worship

"Through the arts we will worship God, love people, share the Gospel, and make disciples of Jesus everywhere we go!"


We are first and foremost worshippers of Jesus. As a ministry chose a name symbolic of our heart as worshipers.  The word, Paradosi, comes from a greek word that means to surrender.  As worshippers it is our hearts desire to surrender our gifts back to God in worship! 


It is our desire to come along side your church or organization in leading times of worship and sharing the hope that we have in Jesus with your community. 


When we share with your community we can take the place of your regular time of worship during your gatherings,  have a song or two inserted into your worship set with your worship team, be dispersed throughout your service, or we can present a stand alone worship event on a day of your choosing.

  • Cost to Bring Paradosi in for a worship event

    • Paradosi does not charge a booking fee, sell tickets, or have a set honorarium request; everything we do is by donation.  We ask partner organizations to prayerfully consider supporting the Gospel work of Paradosi through a gift or love offering that is meaningful to their organization.
    • When praying about a gift that is meaningful to your organization, please keep in mind that Paradosi has direct travel, meal, and supply  expenses for each event in addition to operations.  All gifts received will go to support Paradosi's mission. 
    • If your organization does not have the resources to provide a gift, please do not hesitate to reach out to us.  If your needs are in line with our mission and we have an opening and resources that will allow us to join you, we would love to partner with you in worshipping Jesus and making Him known.   We do not want funds to be a hinderance to our joining you in glorifying Jesus through the arts. 


    Tours and Extended Travel for Events
    • We ask that if we are on tour or if the venue is greater than two-hours away from our studio in Tacoma WA (zip code 98409) that the partner organization will assist with meals and housing for our team.  
    • Meals can either be prepared at the church, restaurant, catering, etc. 
    • Housing may be with host homes from members of the church, motel, hotel, Airbnb, VRBO, etc.  
    • We are fundraising for a motorhome for the ministry. When we have secured one that meets our needs, housing requests may be dropped. 

  • Stage

    • We are very adaptable to a wide variety of venues. We have danced in churches, schools, care centers, universities, theaters, fairs, festivals, and other events.  
    • Under perfect conditions we would have an elevated stage with a minimum depth of 20' and width of 30'.  
    • If your stage does not meet these specifications, we can still share at your venue in most circumstances; however, we may not be able to share all songs in our worship set due to safety or spacing needs.  Please send us photos and or a sketch of the space and we will let you know what we can do! 

    Audio, Lighting, Video

    • Whenever possible we utilize the audio and lighting equipment already at the venue. 
    • When needed, we do have portable audio and lighting equipment available to work with a wide variety of venues from classrooms to gymnasiums.  Our smallest kit involves an 8" battery powered speaker and mixer for when power is not available to our largest system consisting of 15" mains and subwoofers.  When traveling by ground, we can bring equipment with us if required.  When flying we will not be able to bring our equipment due to size and weight.
    • Our worship sets can be run with or without video media.  We sometimes but not always utilize video introductions, testimonies, and endings.  
    • If you would like to have lyrics displayed for your congregation to sing along with us, you will need to utilize your churches CCLI license. 
    • You may stream your events but your venue will be responsible for the appropriate streaming license. 

    Dressing Room

    • Please provide a dressing room for the dancers to change and to store their personal belongings while at the venue. 
    • Snacks and water are appreciated for the dancers back stage. Examples: fruit, vegetables, granola bars, nuts, yoghurt, etc
    • A meal after programs is appreciated.  Please keep in mind that the dancers will not be wanting to eat a meal before they dance but after they dance they will be very hungry. 
    Arrival Time
    • We typically need to arrive at the venue a minimum of 2-hours before the event; 3 to 4 hours is preferred. 
    • The dancers need time to rework their dances for the space, warm up their bodies, and to pray before they dance
    • Depending on the flooring surface and background we may need to lay our marley dance floor and or setup a pipe and drape backdrop. In these circumstances we will need up to 4-hours at the venue before the event. 

  • As we are a worship ministry, we share worship programs, not story ballets.  The focus of our worship is on Jesus of the Christian Bible.


    We call what we do "programs" and not "performances".   The purpose of a performance is to entertain, the purpose of what we do is to worship.  Our mission is that "Through the arts we will Worship God, Love People, Share the Gospel, and Make Disciples of Jesus everywhere we go."   Everything that we do as an organization is to fulfill this mission.  When Paradosi dances in worship it is our hope that people will see a tiny glimpse of the love, hope, and beauty of Jesus and want that for themselves.  When we dance in worship, we are creating space for the Holy Spirit to speak to the hearts of those who are watching and worshipping with us.  When we teach students how to dance, it is to teach them to not only grow in the arts but to see how they can use their dancing to worship God.  We do not dance to be entertainers, but to worship God and to lead others in worshipping Him.   Everything comes down to Worship!  


    "But the hour comes, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father seeks such to be his worshipers. God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth.”

    John 4:23-24
