Description

Moveius Contemporary Ballet is a Part-Time Professional Company with a robust performance season. We develop and present fresh dance works in the contemporary-ballet style that bring modern-day stories and concepts to life. Dancers rehearse two to three evenings a week, in addition to Saturdays, and perform at our home theater for at least three shows a season and external DC venues. Our current rehearsal schedule is Tuesday and Thursday evenings and Saturday afternoons. Some dancers may rehearse during the day, depending on casting. Moveius has a 36-week contract (Mid August-Mid June), with additional performance opportunities during the Summer months. Core Company Contracts include: Compensation: Part-time position. This includes paid rehearsals and performances, covering 6-12 working hours per week. We abide by DC minimum wage laws, meaning all rehearsals are paid at or above minimum wage. Performance fees vary depending on casting. Weekly open company classes taught by Alvaro Palau, Diana Movius and Moveius Ballet Masters, Adam Chavis and Kamillia McCracken.
