Launched in 2018, the BalletX Dance Fellowship is a competitive, season-long training program designed to take artistic development to the next level.
Dance Fellows shadow the BalletX company as they learn world premiere choreography, perform in outdoor/indoor Pop Ups across Philadelphia, and work closely with BalletX artistic and education staff to build their resumes, reels, and networks. While the Dance Fellowship is not a stepping stone into the BalletX company, it is an opportunity for emerging artists to expand their experience and define their goals as they transition into the professional world.
The Fellowship runs for a minimum of 35 weeks, from September through May each year, with a standard schedule of 9:00am-5:00pm, Monday-Friday. Fellows receive a weekly stipend.

Brown.
