Dance4’s Centre for Advance Training (CAT) has worked in partnership with organisations across the East Midland such as Déda, The Curve and Lincoln Performing Arts Centre to support youth dance companies across the region.
These companies and classes provide quality provision that focuses on technique skills and creative processes. Many will also have additional opportunities to be involved in intensive projects and performances.
Each company has its own audition requirements. These youth companies aim to engage young people with potential talent that could progress onto to CAT. The companies/classes are also accessed by current CAT students from that county as mid-week provision.
