Pre-Company

Dancers with limited experience with an interest in our competitive program are welcome to train at the company level to prepare for the next level. Please inquire if you are interested in this and we will set up an individual plan for your dancer.

Apprentice

We realize that some dancers want to participate in dance competitions just for fun. The apprentice dance company allows dancers to compete at a casual and low-demand level.

Requirements:

  • One ballet class and one class within any genre in which you compete.
  • Commitment to three mandatory dance competitions.
  • At least one ballet class in our summer program. A full session of summer intensive will also suffice (highly recommend).

Intensive

Thrive’s intensive dance company consists of well-rounded and serious dancers who make dance their priority.

Requirements:

  • Two weekly ballet classes (at least one “intensive only” class) including participation in Nutcracker; one modern class, one conditioning OR leaps, one hip-hop OR tap class, and any genre in which you compete. Tap and hip-hop are both recommended to expand each dancers’ repertoire in ways that contemporary alone does not.
  • Commitment to three mandatory dance competitions and three mandatory conventions.
  • Commitment to at least one full session of summer intensive OR summer classes in our 4 week July program.
