Session Description

This advanced half-day program is for high school students seriously considering a professional dance career. Classes are during the day, five mornings or afternoons a week, up to 20 hours weekly. To complete their high school courses, students must either be homeschooled or have their high school provide a half-day academic program for them. In Vancouver, King George Secondary and Magee Secondary currently provide a half-day Sports and Arts program (SPARTS) that offers dancers the opportunity to complete academic requirements in preparation for high school graduation and post-secondary opportunities, while also allowing them to maintain a rigorous dance schedule. Dancers enrolled in Elementary, Intermediate, Senior, Advanced, and Pre-Grad must attend our International Summer Dance Intensive (ISDI) each summer.
