About

Your Story Starts Here

The Intensive Training Program (ITP) is an accelerated program that includes ballet classes which are supported by training in other dance disciplines such as pointe, conditioning, modern and requires a high level of commitment.  Students perform in competitions, festivals and community events throughout the year.

Alumni of the program have gone on to careers on Broadway, Rainbow Stage, and with Alvin Ailey American Dance Theatre, among others.  They have continued their dance education with other esteemed training organizations such as Arts Umbrella, Goh Ballet, Alberta Ballet, Boston Conservatory, and the School of Contemporary Dancers.
