PROGRAMS
PRE-COLLEGE MENTORING
Getting into a college dance program is its own kind of audition. We've been on both sides of the table — let us get you ready.

A One-Year Virtual Program
DDL faculty have worked with college and university programs across the country as adjunct professors, repetiteurs, choreographers, and guest teachers.
We know what these programs are looking for because we've worked with them.
Designed for high school juniors, seniors, and their parents, this interactive one-year virtual program walks you through the entire college decision process — start to finish.
Spots are limited. Applications are accepted on a rolling basis until full.
What will you get with DDL's Pre-College Mentoring?
1-ON-1
MEETINGS
Four check-ins across the year — three for the dancer, one for parents. We'll set goals, build an action plan, and work the plan together.
NETWORKING
Got a dream school? We've got connections. We'll put you in touch with colleagues at programs across the country so you can ask your questions directly — straight from the source.
RESUME,
BIO, AND
HEADSHOT
Years "behind the table" taught us what stands out. We'll sharpen your resume, steer your headshot choices for concert and commercial, and help you tell your story — so you don't blend into the pile.
COACHING
Two sessions with your DDL mentor to polish your audition solo or clean up the ballet and modern technique that in-person auditions demand.
APPLICATION
REVIEW
Your cover letter and personal statement show schools who you really are. Your mentor will guide you through both and help you find the words that land.
CHOREOGRAPHY
Most college auditions want to see a modern/contemporary solo. Not sure where to start? We'll choreograph an original built around your strengths and tailored to your application. (Additional fee applies.)
