Toronto ON. NOTE: Please bring a picture, resume, proper dancewear, and be prepared to learn choreography. O.I.P. DANCE COMPANY The O.I.P. Dance Company is a pre-professional and semiprofessional training company for dancers aged 15 and up. Comprised of a highly dedicated and talented group of dancers, O.I.P. Dance Company is designed for dancers who are looking for high quality training and performance opportunities. Many dancers may be graduating or leaving their dance studio or would like to work towards a professional career in dance – O.I.P. Dance Company is the place for them! COMPANY REQUIREMENTS 15 yrs & over OR over 7 yrs training in dance experience: HIP HOP:pickup at medium to fast pace JAZZ: technique: double/triple pirouettes, piques, axels, switch splits NOTE: You do not have to be experienced in all the different styles of dance (tap, jazz, hip-hop, etc…) but you must have training and performance ability in at least one area! TRAINING The O.I.P. Dance Company focuses on hip hop, jazz, breaking, house, contemporary, musical theatre, and other various styles of dance throughout the year. We will ensure that students who are not as strong in one style of dance or another will get the number of classes needed to advance their skills in that area to the level of everyone else! For example, if you have very strong training in jazz, but your hip-hop and breaking skills are not as strong, you will participate in the jazz classes/rehearsals and be required to attend an appropriate number of hip-hop and breaking classes per month to improve to a level at which you can join the rest of the group for rehearsals. That applies not only for jazz dancers, but also for hip-hop dancers that want to learn jazz and other styles! All O.I.P. Dance Company members are encouraged to continue training in other classes and are welcome to continue attending their own dance studio in addition to the O.I.P. Dance Company. COMMITMENT Being an O.I.P. Dance Company dancer involves a full time commitment of 8 hours of rehearsals and/or classes per week, as well as performance projects from September 2012 to June 2013. The most important commitment is to improve as dancers and professional performers! FEES $315.00.00 plus HST, every four weeks (upon signing a full year registration). Dancers will receive over 32 hours of class time each month. (Approximately $9.85 dollars per class/hour). These fees cover the costs of some of the costumes for our show, faculty instructors, studio rentals, promotional material, and guest choreographers. PLUS: For those dancers lacking in one style or another, you will be ask to attend drop-in classes during the week, to elevate your skills and to continue to improve. YOU WILL RECEIVE ALL DROP-IN CLASSES AT OIP FOR FREE! We ask the dancers to continually improve themselves in all areas of dance.
