Audition Info
Summer Intensive Auditions
Redding Dance Centre
has been supporting & educating dancers thru
the Summer Intensive Audition
process for over 40 years.
Many of RDC's dancers have continued to pursue dance through degree programs,
teaching and performing.
A FEW RECOMMENDATIONS FOR THOSE INTERESTED
-
Speak with your instructor(s) and let them know your goals so they can help you to reach them.
-
DO YOUR RESEARCH - Find out what is available, and what is required for the audition. ie, specific photos*, letters of recommendation, cost of class, pre-registration options.
-
Check what kind of housing is available for your age.
-
RDC also recommends that the dancer auditioning is at least 12 years of age with a minimum of 4 years dance training. We suggest to those interested in a pointe component to have a minimum of 2 years pointe training.
-
RDC provides a 5 week Summer Program designed to help prepare dancers for future Intensives.
-
Prepare your mind, presentation, work ethic and proper attire in EVERY class to be ready for the best audition you can take.
*Audition photo sessions are available by appointment during
the month of December.
