About

Vitacca’s Pre-Professional Divisions offer an advanced training opportunity for dancers ages 11 to 19 within our Vocational Training Program. These divisions provide the foundation for professional dance careers through a cohesive schedule, multiple performance opportunities through the Studio Company, and private coaching. Pre-Professional dancers undergo biannual evaluations for review and receive Fall and Spring mentorship meetings. Vitacca Pre-Professional dancers take the stage annually within Vitacca Ballet’s The Nutcracker and select dancers are invited to participate in Youth America Grand Prix as well as ADCIBC.
