Program Description:

          Jr. Elite Program is geared towards our intermediate/beginning dancers. Dancers that want to receive quality training in ballet, jazz technique, artistry, performance skills and acro, will thrive in this program. This program is serious about planting a firm foundation in proper dance technique for their future as a competitive dancer. 

          With a well diversified weekly schedule, this dancer's dedication, and willingness to practice at home, this dancer will progress at a quicker pace. His/her weekly schedule will consist of two ballet classes from knowledgeable and highly experienced staff that have instilled the passion and love for ballet. They understand how to keep the dancer motivated and challenged while the student learns to appreciate the foundation of dance. Students will also have a required jazz technique class, choreography class and an acro class instructed by highly trained and qualified staff members.

          Dancers will compete in two genres, jazz and lyrical at four local competitions. We bring in professional choreographers to teach their competition material. Our dancers in this program will also attend Summer Slam Dance Camp with an amazing staff. This camp is generally held in late July at Riverton High School. It’s a three day commuter camp.

          We take our dancer's progression very seriously. Our dancers will be evaluated twice a year to track their progress and to assist them to improve upon their weaker areas. Collaboration between teachers for individual students also ensures this progression.

          This program requires dancers to attend 7 days of the 15 days offered in June summer intensives. This flexibility allows your family to have the freedom to choose what days work best for your summer vacation schedule. 

           If you are new to our studio, visit “audition schedule” so your dancer knows when to attend auditions. Following auditions we will inform your dancer how many intensive days are required for them to attend depending on which program they make. Dancers that do not participate in the summer intensive program will not be allowed to compete the following dance season with us.

          Project Dance is not only committed to developing great dancers, we are passionate about the growth of the individual! Students learn teamwork, discipline, importance of hard work and dedication, and responsibility all while training in a challenging and fun environment.
