Student success in college requires well developed learning skills and attitudes (such as being able to work independently,
participate in a team, be well-organized, develop good work habits, and show initiative). These skills are as important as prior academic
achievement. Applicants should have thoroughly developed these skills and attitudes before beginning their college programs.

OUR PROGRAM
This one-year program is a foundational program that strengthens and hones your fundamental dance technique. Technical training in classical ballet is supplemented by components of modern and jazz dance to provide you with the knowledge and ability to pursue advanced training in the dance field. Vocal and acting training rounds out your performance versatility, and academic and essential employability components build your career management expertise. As a graduate, you will have built a strong and confident foundation from which to further your professional dance education.
STUDENT SELECTION
Students auditioning for Dance Performance Preparation require a minimum of five years training in Jazz or Modern Dance and elementary level training in Ballet (three to five years).
YOUR CAREER
Our graduates have a solid foundation for continued study! Graduates use their singular or combined skills and discipline in dance, voice and acting to pursue further professional training at George Brown Dance or gain entrance to other respected programs around the country and abroad.
“This program is amazing because there is so much to learn technically, mentally and emotionally. The help from the professional teachers about technique and their advice about our futures were so insightful. The vast opportunities that this program offers have helped students find jobs and network with future co-workers.”
Cheryl Chan (2011 graduate)
