Studying
with industry professionals on our full time faculty and a wide

Thoughtful
guidance is given to every dancer by a diverse and unique
faculty that cares.
Although technical classes include: Ballet,
Modern, Jazz, Contemporary, Tap, Musical Theatre, Hip Hop,
Conditioning, Palates and a few other things here and there, most

Having
a duel purpose Project Moves offers aspiring dance artists an
incredible scope of dance, theatre and performance
training while providing audiences of all ages thought
provoking works guaranteed to move the mind body and
soul. What
began as a successful competition team, this program has now
evolved into a true pre-professional company replacing the competition emphasis with
“dance as art”.
Raising
thousands of dollars for various charities, The Gold
School produces two nationally recognized benefit
concerts annually. With professional direction,
choreography, and lighting, these productions offer
young dance artists unparalleled performance training.
Dancers are afforded the opportunity to work with our
professional in-house and guest choreographers on
creative works in all genres of dance.
Because
the full time faculty determines casting for
the season’s choreography dancers are given the
opportunity to audition in each class taken.
Technically qualified, motivated, dependable, and most
importantly, dancers that are pleasant to work with,
always receive first consideration when casting.
"Performance Program"
rehearsals are in addition to technique class schedule. |
