DAP does not play when it comes to a full weekend of training, performance, and inspiration 🎭✨

We kicked things off with the Moulin Rouge Broadway tour—completely blown away by the talent, the spectacle, and always inspired by iconic choreography brought to life by such incredible performers.

Our apprentices and trainees then stepped up, sharing their monologues and songs for the DAP Directors, followed by an incredible modern class with .o that pushed them to dig deeper and move with intention.

We didn’t stop there! Straight into rehearsals and onto set with for two commercial dance shoots—bringing the energy, the focus, and the fun every step of the way.

We love getting to perform, collaborate, and grow alongside new artists and helping bring Dancelook’s vision to life. The opportunities the Apprentices and Trainees receive through DAP are unlike any other! They gain so much experience and learn so much in this program, making them prepared to step into a professional career one day.
