Session Description

Ballet West Academy’s Trainee Division was created in 2009 by Ballet West artistic director Adam Sklute for the purpose of extending a dancer’s formal training post-graduation. Designed as a post-secondary vocational program, the Trainee follows a schedule similar to that of the main company with training in the first half of the day and the possibility of rehearsing with the main company in the second. This two-year program is invitation only.
