6th Day Dance Company

6th Day Dance is currently on our summer break, but busy preparing for fall. We will be auditioning apprentices for our company for our 2009-2010 season. See program description below.

The 6th Day Dance Apprentice Program is an opportunity for talented individuals 14 and older to pursue a unique concentration of study in the art of dance. Apprentices with 6th Day will learn to think of dance as a dynamic form, full of possibilities for growth and innovation. This program is best suited for people who have had at least one full year of dance experience (preferably in ballet) and be at an intermediate level. The Apprentice Program offers a weekly master class with company dancers providing a solid foundation in ballet and modern. This program is designed for the dancer who has a faith in God and has a desire to incorporate this faith into their love of dance.

This is an excellent program for a dancer who is pursuing the development of their craft and who may want to pursue either a professional dance career, continue their dance education at a college level, or to use his or her talents to affect a change within their community. The apprentice must be prepared to be challenged physically, mentally and spiritually and will be provided mentoring, and professional guidance in their progress and development.

Program course runs 1 day a week (Sundays 1:30-3:00) from September 2009 to May 2010 with scheduled breaks for holidays. Course includes weekly master classes on Sundays with the company, biblestudy, mentoring and 3 performance opportunities. Program cost for the year is $450 which includes a $25 registration fee.
