We have not yet had the opportunity to interview the University of Arizona Dance Program, if you are associated with the University of Arizona Dance Program please have someone from the program email us at Brittany@BDancewear.com to set up an interview (only takes a few minutes and it’s free).
In the meantime here is some quick insights about this University of Arizona Dance Program from their website.
The School of Dance is a vital component within the College of Fine Arts as well as the University of Arizona. Their faculty has extensive expertise in both the professional and academic worlds and are in demand nationally and internationally as teachers and scholars at festivals, workshops, schools and conferences world-wide. Three of the faculty has been recipients of the prestigious Irene Putnam Award for Excellence in Teaching. The School of Dance was honored as the top program for undergraduate education within the University of Arizona, due in part to the highly interactive approach linking undergraduate students and dance faculty members. The School of Dance is unique in its equal emphasis on ballet, modern and jazz dance training. It is through performing that students are fully able to integrate and apply what they have learned in the classroom. With the extensive number of performances each season, students grow increasingly more comfortable, spontaneous and free to take risks on stage. The UA Dance Ensemble is comprised of B.F.A. and M.F.A. students, privileged to perform in the state-of-the-art performance facility: The Stevie Eller Dance Theatre. Dancers enjoy a large performance season, averaging over 30 main stage concerts a year.
