[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My dancer will not be majoring in dance. Dance is an activity, not a future. [/quote] That’s easy to say when you have a mediocre dancer. Talented dancers have more options.[/quote] Cruise ships? [/quote] That’s one path. Other grads I know have been hired by professional companies including Mark Morris, Elizabeth Streb, Nederlands, Pilobolus, and Martha Graham Company. Some are running their own companies or studios. Others are teaching in private studios, or go on for MFAs and teach in universities as adjunct or tenured faculty members. A few have managed to balance high level careers while dancing in well regarded local companies part-time. It’s not an easy path and requires sacrifices, but dancers who are driven, disciplined, and talented can make it work. Those who have potential but can only see one path flame out and those who lack talent or drive give up. The others just keep working and evolving.[/quote]
