The Church of the Master was one of the first spaces that Arthur Mitchell and Karel Shook used to teach classes.

In the fall of 1969 Arthur Mitchell purchased a dance floor and ballet barres and began teaching classes to children in the basement.

“The gymnasium had an observers’ galley along one side, so we instituted a policy of open rehearsals each Wednesday afternoon to which school children, senior citizens and club groups were invited."

Karel Shook
