Apprentices

DE LA's Apprentice dancers are involved in all company classes

and rehearsals and are considered for all roles in company

productions. Apprentices may be asked to supplement their

training with additional classes through our school de la Dance

Center, where they would receive a 50% tuition scholarship.

Apprentice contracts are unpaid.

Trainees

DE LA's Trainees represent the highest level of training in de la

Dance Center. Trainee dancers follow a full company schedule,

including classes and rehearsals, while continuing to train within

our school. Trainees are considered for corps de ballet roles in

company productions and participate in de la Dance Center's

Spring Recital. Traineeships are tuition based.
