Looking to perform? Maybe you’re an experienced dancer who misses performing, or you’ve been taking drop-in classes and want to learn what it’s like to be a part of an entire piece? If you want the specialized training, comradery, and social aspect of a performance group, without the long term commitment, our Performance Programs might be for you!
These programs are open to any experienced committed dancer – build your program based on your schedule, dance experience, and styles you’re interested in. This is a great way to work towards an end goal, supplement your drop-in classes, and gain exciting performance experience at our end-of-term showcase!
For adult dancers ages 14+ (Heels is 18+)
In each program, you will learn a piece of group choreography where you work towards a term end showcase.
We have two showcases a year: December and April, with applications for each opening in August and January, respectively.
