Junior Apprentice Program

This program is designed for talented high school students ages 14+ who are interested in pursuing dance as a career. This pre-professional group performs separately and alongside Urbanity’s Professional Company, providing each dancer with the invaluable experience of learning the discipline, fortitude, and dedication that is required to be a member of a professional company. Graduates of Urbanity’s Junior Apprentices have been accepted to and attended many of the most prestigious dance training programs in the country including Juilliard, Boston Conservatory, University of Arizona, University of Michigan, Bennington College, and Alonzo King's LINES.
