Our Company class curriculum is carefully designed to be a college and prefessional level audition preparatory program. There is a high level of commitment expected in Company, but for those that strive to excel, the results are worth it.
Depending on one's level, members have required amounts of ballet, jazz, modern, contemporary, tap, and BodyWorks each week. Starting with Juniors, all our performance company members are requred take weekly modern classes featuring Graham, Horton, and Limón technique.
Pre-Company
For students that are not quite ready for the full company experience, we've not started a pre-company programs. These students are required to take 4 hours of instruction each week, participate in our Christmas and Summer performances, and attend one local competition each season.
