Centre for Advanced Training (CAT) Satellite Centre, Hampshire

The Point is delighted to be working with the world-renowned dance centre The Place, London in hosting a unique satellite centre for their CAT scheme to provide young people aged 10 – 14 the opportunity to develop their potential in dance.

Auditions will be held at The Point on Saturday 11th February. Successful candidates will then take part in a course of contemporary dance technique classes and creative workshops over the spring and summer terms. In addition to this participants will have the chance to take part in a taster day at The Place and have the amazing opportunity to create a new dance piece with a professional choreographer and perform it at The Place in their annual summer show.

Applicants will be assessed on their training potential and must demonstrate passion, commitment and enthusiasm for dance. Young people with a strong interest in dance regardless of whether they have had any previous formal dance training are encouraged to apply.

The scheme is open to young people aged 10 - 14 years old (applicants must have turned 10 by 1st September 2011).
