Ages 9-12 Girls - Junior Company

Junior Company - By Audition Only

Closed for the 2012-2013 program year

The Junior Company is our intermediate level program, reaching 9-12 year old girls with ongoing dance and leadership training between September and June. The program costs $50/month, and need-based scholarships are available. View our 2012-2013 Class Schedule.

Junior Company members will:

  • Meet 4 hours weekly to study modern dance
  • Learn problem-solving and positive coping skills
  • Address issues relevant to their lives through creative movement
  • Participate in developing choreography
  • Perform in local community venues, and on a 3-day performance tour to another city in the South
Members of the Junior Company must complete an audition at the beginning of the program year, and sign “commitment contracts” outlining their goals and responsibilities. Auditions for the 2012-2013 program year will take place on August 25, 2012 from 2:30pm-4pm at Moving in the Spirit's 750 Glenwood Ave, Atlanta location. Junior Company members take part in monthly educational workshops, and are matched with mentors who serve as caring role models and provide our dancers with social and academic encouragement.
 

My Story

I like dancing in the Junior Company because I like the way the other dancers treat me like sisters, or like family. I also like the way dance expresses my feelings – I can work out my problems. Junior Company dancer
