DANCEWAVE COMPANY
A spacious dance training program that builds ability, artistic integrity, and leadership skills, the Dancewave Company Program celebrates young artists for who they are and supports them in becoming who they want to be.
Incorporating technique classes, rehearsals with renowned choreographers, performance and choreographic opportunities, and intentional community-building through movement, our proven effective training provides dancers with leadership development, individual mentoring, and restorative whole-person education.
Through their time in the program, company members grow into confident dancers and empowered individuals ready to make their voices heard: in the studio, on the stage, and beyond.
The Dancewave Company Program is tuition-flexible; no dancer will be turned away for lack of funds.
