Services
Trainee Program dancers take class six days a week from Avant Chamber Ballet's nationally respected faculty, as well as guest teachers and choreographers. Trainees have the opportunity to perform with ACB throughout the year. Daytime Trainees rehearse with ACB's professional company dancers and have the chance experience company life and responsibilities to prepare them for their future careers.
When you think of ballet you might think of a profession dominated by women, but that's not necessarily the case with choreography. Hilary Kennedy chats with Katie Cooper, the Artistic Director for Avant Chamber Ballet, about the Women's Choreography Project. Katie Cooper's Avant Chamber Ballet gave perhaps the finest performance in its four-year history, sensitively and confidently staging Balanchine's jazzy Who Cares?.
