Shadbolt Centre for the Arts Community Dance Company
This youth dance company, for committed dancers, focuses on modern dance, composition and performance in a non-competitive environment. Dancers are introduced to ideas, purpose, and appreciation of dance as an expressive art form. There are performance opportunities throughout the year and a year-end concert in June. Interested dancers must audition and have previous ballet and modern training. If accepted, dancers must register for ballet and modern technique, and Youth In Motion: Composition and Rehearsal Class.
