COACHING

  • AUDITION PREP

    One-on-one, private sessions to help prepare students to audition for Junior, Middle, and High School Arts Programs or Intensives.

    Audition Prep sessions may also be used to film video submissions with guidance and direction.

    Please see below for further details regarding Audition Prep.

  • PRIVATES

    Private lessons are for any dancer who is new to our studio or more advanced.

    A private lesson allows the instructor to focus on the specific needs of the dancer and can specialize the lesson accordingly.

    You can choose any dance style and instructor we offer here at CAS. Have a look at our instructors here.

  • Interview Preparation

  • Audition Etiquette Guidance

  • Private Coaching in Specific Dance Styles

  • Solo Choreography if Required
