Performance Ensemble

This is a new performance-based program at Passion Academy designed for the serious dance student that is desiring to develop his/her artistic skills on a more regular basis, outside of weekly classes. Students in this ensemble must be dedicated and committed to their dance training. Students will learn and rehearse choreography with Passion Academy Dance Director, Sarah Ruppel Bullis, on a weekly basis and will have the opportunity to perform this choreography at various performance outlets in the Richmond community throughout the season. Students may audition for a spot in the ensemble at the beginning of the season. Students in levels Ballet V and up are eligible to audition at the end of August. Students in Ballet level IV that have been taking ballet classes 2 days per week since the beginning of the season may audition for the program in January.

Auditions for Performance Ensemble will be held on Sunday, August 24th.
