Being a Company Dancer
Learning to be stage ready and developing professional skills
JK Performing Arts has 5 tiers of company dancers based on age and skill levels. Minis, Juniors, Intermediate, Senior and 18+. Members are required for more extensive training with a minimum commitment of 2 evenings a week, full-day Saturday classes and competition and gala performances.
Company dancers receive training in multiple disciplines such as tap, jazz, lyrical and contemporary dance. They also gain invaluable performance experience by participating in events and competitions at local, national (such as The New Zealand Dance Awards) and international levels. But we are much more than just a competitive team!
Our company groups are designed to foster each dancer’s individuality and deep appreciation for all areas of performing arts. Company dancers at JKPA participate in an ever-changing environment where they interact with guest choreographers and often train alongside seasoned professionals.
