Twirl Tap Ballet

What are some good high schools that specialize in dance in Canada?
I want to finish my high school years at a high school that specializes in dance. I have already taken many years of dance classes; 2 years of ballet, 2 years of tap, 6 years of baton twirling, 6 years of jazz, 1 year of lyrical, 2 years of Hip Hop and 1 year of Broadway. Of that I did three of competitive stuff. This year I am taking Jazz and am doing it competitivly. I have also tried Ballroom, Salsa, Oriental, Belly Dance and a few others. As you can see, I am more of a Jazzy dancer, but I am willing to expand more.
I was hoping for a place for a place in around either Ottawa or Manitoba. It would be great if they had scholarships because my family would be able to pay much of it. If you could also tell me any experiece you had with any of the school and how you liked it.
I'm going to wear my admissions hat here and say that before you look at schools you are going to have to decide what you really want to do in terms of dance. Looking at your bio I would conclude that you are more a dilettante than a serious dancer. The fact that you are high school now and not already at an arts school emphasizes that point.
So think on this - what do you want? To do musical theatre? TV? Music videos and stage shows?
In the meantime you may want to consider:

14-year-old girl starting ballet and gymnastics?
I live near a dance center, and it offers classes in tap, baton twirling, jazz, ballet, pointe, and gymnastics. Any tips? I know gymnastics has levels, but what about ballet, and if there are levels in ballet then how many are there? And what level might I be in by age 17? I can't wait, I'm so excited! I started to love gymnastics at age 12 and started to love ballet at age 8. Also, would I ever qualify to start pointe?
Also, is paying about $40.00 per month for this reasonable?
The price is super reasonable and it's awesome that your so excited!! Levels vary depending on the studio for ballet. There is something called graded ballet, in which class levels are taught by a set syllabus and exams determine whether you advance to the next level. Other studios will have their own levels, determined by them, which will cover whatever they feel is appropriate to teach the certain levels they created. An intermediate class at one studio may be completely different From an intermediate class at a different dance studio. Thats why you cant go by what level your in, but only by what skills you have. So you will definitely have to ask the teacher/director and they will place you in the appropriate class.If you Take classes at a studio with good instructors, who know what they are talking about, I would say there is a good chance that you could get en pointe before graduating highschool, however, going en pointe without sufficient training can be VERY dangerous! So be careful not to rush it, your teacher(s) should know when your ready.
Good luck, hope this helped

Ballet and Modern Dance (Paperback) $13.3 Whether as performers or as spectators, more people enjoy dance today than ever before. Its extraordinary range extends from classical ballet and baroque court spectacles to avant-garde modern dance, tap, and ethnic dancing. Anyone with an interest in dance has felt the need for a guide to the art`s rich history and complex present state. Susan Au`s lucid text covers the entire spectrum of dance, vividly describing the great performers and performances of the past as well as exploring in detail the dance world of today. A generous selection of illustrations completes the picture, taking the reader from the palaces of the Medici to the lofts of Manhattan, from the dancing of Louis XIV to the experimental choreography of Twyla Tharp and Pina Bausch. A completely new final chapter documents the work of the chief dancers and choreographers from the 1980s to the present, covering offshoots of modern dance such as Tanztheater and Butoh, and recent developments such as performance art and site-specific choreography. The author discusses the upsurge in the popularity of dances of the past, among them ballroom dancing and the Argentine tango, and notes the revival of tap dancing as well as the successful adaptation of Irish stepdancing to the theater. In addition, she records the uses dance and dancers have made of recent technological advances, including cinedance and videodance, CD-ROMs, and the Internet. |
