PROFESSIONAL DANCE PROGRAM The program was developed by Randy Allaire and Bill Prudich in 1988 to prepare dancers for a career in commercial and concert dance. Since then, they have guided hundreds of dancers who have gone on to star in motion pictures, co-star on television, tour with leading pop artists, appear in videos, commercials, movies, on television and stage. Some alumni have gone on to become successful business people, acknowledged educators, choreographers, dance agents and casting directors. The intensive one-year program is demanding and involves up to 38 hours per week of classes, closed scholarship sessions and work apprenticeship. The Directors work closely with the participants and after careful evaluation they customize the participants training program and guide them throughout the program. Upon completion, participants will be well on their way to becoming professional dancers. As well as receiving the finest and most varied commercial dance education available, participants will have gained confidence and experience, exposure to the industry, business connections and valuable knowledge of the dance business. When entering the work force the majority of our graduates will have dance agent representation. EDGE is a professional vocational school and graduates of the program receive a certificate of completion. The program begins in September and continues through August of the following year. Acceptance into the program is by audition, which is held in August. To be eligible applicants must be at least eighteen years of age, dancing at an intermediate level in jazz and ballet and either a US citizen or hold dual citizenship with the US. Applicants must submit an application with a current photo as well as any supporting materials requested in the application. EDGE does not provide student housing. Up to twenty people are accepted into the program and awarded a scholarship. Participants are required to fulfill sixteen to eighteen assigned classes per week, three two and a half hour scholarship classes and five hours of apprentice work. Participants may not study, instruct, audition or accept any dance, acting, modeling or other commercial or theatrical work outside the program. Due to time requirements, as well as day and night class scheduling, participants cannot be enrolled in college or other academic programs. Part-time work is encouraged for the first three quarters (Sep-May), however due to additional time requirements during June and July in preparation for the show work hours will be difficult although not impossible. Yearly tuition is $18,600 that includes study and administrative fees, headshots and parking. Parking is not guaranteed. Participants receive a scholarship of $17,100 that is paid directly to the program. With this scholarship, the participant’s tuition is $1500 that may be paid in full or in quarterly payments of $250 due at the beginning of each quarter. Tuition payments are made to The Dance Fund our non-profit 501(c)(3) that provides funding for the program. See the program application for complete details and requirements.
