New: Shadow Apprentice
We often get younger dancers, inspired by our apprentices, asking “How can I become an apprentice?” In prior seasons, we’ve always had to tell these interested dancers that they had to wait until they were 9 years old. Well, not anymore! We have created a new opportunity for dancers ages 7-8, who are in level 2 or higher classes, to join our apprentice program as a Shadow Apprentice.
What is a Shadow Apprentice you may ask? This is a mentorship for young dancers to train to become well-rounded and knowledgeable in all aspects of becoming an apprentice, to help them prepare for when they are eligible to become a full-fledged helper in the class. Shadow apprentices will join any Combo or Ballet 1 class, that has an already established apprentice assigned, and learn from both the apprentice and the teacher about all the ins and outs of what it takes to be a leader in the classroom.
Shadow apprentices will be expected to hit certain milestones throughout their training, to help better align themselves with what we expect our apprentices to know and learn in the classroom. There will be check-in meetings throughout the season to ensure the dancers are hitting their mark.
This is an extremely limited program as there are only available spots for Combo and Ballet 1, and spots are dependent on whether there is an established apprentice already assigned to the class. Applications are on a first come, first serve basis. We are only accepting nine applications at this time. If your dancer is interested, please fill out the application below.
Apprentices
Is your dancer looking to further their involvement at the studio? Look no further! Our apprentice program allows our dancers who are 9 years old and up, to help assist in dance classes that are two levels below their current level.
The apprentice program is fantastic for dancers to learn the different aspects of running a classroom at a very novice level. They will be tasked with helping lead a class, demonstrate exercises, and help maintain classroom control. Apprentices are wonderful role models for our younger dancers to look up to and help show how far our younger dancers can go if they continue to work hard!
Apprentices will be interviewed for their role and mock resumes are optional. An example will be attached below.
Team Leads
Looking to step into an even MORE involved role? The Apprentice Team Lead role may be exactly what you are looking for! Team Leads will continue to assist inside and outside the classroom, but will have the opportunity to be more hands-on within their role in this program. Responsibilities will include overseeing the apprentices, event planning, and helping assist in the betterment of the program.
There will be monthly meetings with the Program Director and Associate Director, which Team Leads are expected to attend, where the aforementioned responsibilities plus more will be discussed. It is also a requirement for Teams Leads to be available for any and all events that are planned.
The Team Lead program is open for apprentices who have participated in the Apprentice Program for 3 consecutive seasons (one and a half years) so if you are looking to pursue even more from this program, apply below!
Please note: Resumes are required and not everyone who applies will get selected. Please see below for a resume example.
All applications are due on May 25th, 2024. If you have any questions or want to know more, please email kai@strongdancestudios.com
