Dance Fellowship

BalletX’s Dance Fellowship program offers up to four pre-professional dancers each season a salaried contract to learn and grow alongside our company dancers.

About The Program

Launched in 2018, the BalletX Dance Fellowship is a season-long training program designed to take artistic development to the next level.
 
BalletX Dance Fellows shadow the BalletX company as they learn world premiere choreography, perform in community pop up performances 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.
 
Through classes, one-on-one mentorship, and world premiere commissions, BalletX trains its Fellows to be versatile and emotive, develop a strong work ethic, hone technical skills, and approach their art with a willingness and freedom to experiment, learn, and collaborate.
