Pre-Professional Division
&
Company

Where dedication meets artistry

The Pre-Professional Division is a structured training program for dedicated dancers committed to advancing their technical and artistic skills. Designed for serious students and crafted to develop disciplined, versatile dancers prepared for professional opportunities while fostering a passion for the art. 

​

Ballet Technique:  3-4 weekly classes focusing on precision, strength, and artistry.

​

​

Pointe:  Specialized training to refine pointe work and enhance technical prowess.

​

 

Jazz and Modern: Classes to build versatility, dynamic movement, and performance range.

 

 

Performance Opportunities: Pre-professional dancers take the stage in three annual productions:

​

 

  • The Nutcracker, a cornerstone of our performance season.

  • Spring Ballet- In April 2026 we will be premiering a full-length Spring Ballet. The title of the ballet will be announced soon!

  • A year-end recital, showcasing technical and artistic growth throughout all disciplines of dance.

​​

​

Community Involvement: In alignment with our mission, Jr. and Sr. Company members partake in several events throughout the year. Last year, dancers were dancing zombies in Wadsworth's "Scare on the Square," posed in storefronts for Candlelight Walk, and even performed at the Blue Tip Festival.

​

​​

Hard Work is Rewarding!​

 

This past year, several of our company members were accepted into some of the most prestigious summer intensives in the US and abroad- BalletMet, Cincinnati Ballet, Joffrey New York, Joffrey Italy, Joffrey Akron, Kaastsbaan Ballet Intensive, and Sarasota Ballet among others.
