[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Top program intensives are absolutely recommended for teens particularly if they are looking for trainee opportunities later or for college. Need to build up a resume[/quote] Ballet in college is kind of stupid. If you aren't in a company by 18, it's pretty much over. And even if you are in a company, the pay scale is very tough. Even Tiler Peck has to spin off brands to live comfortably in Manhattan. Nobody coming out of a college ballet program is going to earn much except teach ballet at the college level and those are really bad teachers. They could never teach at a serious private ballet school. Serious ballet dancers know this and go to college with something else in mind because the ballet road ended. I've met people who did college dance and they lamented that they had to take unrelated day jobs in order to dance for a 'company' for free. It is foolish to go into college debt for something like that.[/quote]
