AXIS Dance Company seeks an emerging disabled apprentice dancer for a professional training and rehearsal program. This apprenticeship will offer daily training, as well as a full rehearsal and performance season alongside the professional dancers of AXIS. Apply and learn more through the link in our bio or axisdance.org/about/join-our-team/

Disabled dancers are often not given the opportunity to train in a professional setting. An apprenticeship with AXIS will equip the right dancer with the knowledge, technical training, and performance experience to pursue a professional dance performance career. A 43 week contract (with an off-contract period from November 18th, 2023 - January 21, 2024) will be offered starting April 2023.
