The program focuses on developing technical skills in the genres of ballet, modern dance, and jazz dance with exposure to improvisation, composition and choreography. The apprentice Dance Company will have the opportunity to perform in the Spring Concert along with Dance Troupe and will work with both the Director of Dance and Assistant Director during the school year.
