dancer

classwork (and will advance any auditioning skills they
already have)
- Vocal health evaluation, monitoring, and advice from a
speech pathologist who specializes in performance voice
- Overall guidance on auditioning: lists of schools that
are a good fit for each individual student's needs,
audition attire, strategies for scheduling auditions,
interview prep, even stress management for students AND
parents!
Other
services
available:
- Audition prep
for summer programs & performing arts high schools
- For schools and theatres: workshops on auditioning
(including song and monologue choice, acting monologues,
and acting a song) and vocal health
How
we work:
Our students
work regularly with specific coaches to prepare songs
and/or monologues and to refine their dance technique and
dance auditioning skills.
They then have several opportunities to show their audition
material to other members of our coaching team, both in
individual coaching sessions and in mock college audition
workshops.
This collaborative coaching allows our students to refine
their audition pieces and broaden their skill set through
the feedback and input of an array of top-level coaches
from a variety of backgrounds.
