Project 21 is an artistic company of advanced dancers; it is not a studio. Perspective members audition and, when invited to the company, are committing to the Project 21 Company for one full year. Project 21 dancers, families, and staff share the commitment of achieving excellence through hard work, commitment, dedication, and teamwork.

As a member of the Project 21 Company, dancers and families are committing to a rigorous training program, the study of diverse dance styles from a variety of visiting choreographers, and the expectations of an elite competitive dance program.

Audition results will be emailed out to each dancer individually within 48 hours after auditions have concluded.
