A Little Audition Inspiration

January 3, 2013

It’s summer study audition time—which means you’re probably feeling a little stressed out. But no matter how nerve-racking your audition circuit is this year, keep your eyes on the prize: Attending a summer intensive is one of the best ways to boost your technique—and to meet other awesome dancers from around the country, or even the world.

To help you focus on the positive, web series Dance212 is re-airing its popular fourth season, which follows five young dancers as they attend sweet NYC summer programs. Watching these talented students living the dream at the likes of American Ballet Theatre and The School of American Ballet should give you a sense of perspective—look at all the amazingness ahead!—and help calm those audition jitters right down.
