Pre-Professional Company

wanderlust - no text.jpg

The North Dakota Ballet Pre-Professional Company is an audition-based program that is designed for dancers 18+ that are seeking opportunities to continue their dance training and partake in performances throughout the region.  The focus of this program is to create a community of dancers while fostering the artistry of dance through weekly classes and various performances throughout the season.  Every style of dance is welcome!  Come with an open heart and a love of the art of dance.

​

Company Members meet once a week on Wednesdays, for a weekly class, followed by rehearsals for any upcoming performance opportunities, as well a very small amount of Saturday rehearsals.  The performance opportunities include a Winter Show, a Spring Show, and various smaller performances throughout the community.  Company Members are also given the opportunity to partake in any Academy classes they would like at a reduced price. 

Auditions

We provide a couple options when auditioning for the Pre-Professional Company: in person or through a video submission.  Virtual auditions are brand new territory for us all and we are exploring this opportunity together!  We understand there will be bumps along the way and wish to instill that quality of your work is more important than quality of your video.  We also understand that size of space can be limited but we would rather see altered or smaller movement than injured dancers.  We thank you in advanced for your patience, understanding, and passion for dance.

​

In Person

Auditions in person can be done by appointment only.  Please prepare a short piece of choreography of your choice in the style you feel most comfortable in that is around one minute long. You may be asked to show additional skills or movements once you have performed your piece of choreography.

Elite Dance Crew

The roots of Elite Dance Crew trace back to head choreographer Eller Bonifaco’s arrival in the United States about 7 years ago. Eller grew up in the island nation of the Philippines and brought his passion for dance and choreography with him to Grand Forks. As a young UND student, he didn’t let the lack of hip hop in the area stop him from doing what he does best – he found others in the area who shared his desire to dance and the rest is history.

Since then, they evolved into what is now known as ELITE DANCE CREW. They’ve performed in front of thousands and they’re so grateful to share their moves with you!

ELITE Intensive is offered during the Fall and Spring seasons for those who are looking to improve their dance skills and performance ability. The class is structured to learn advanced choreography every month. These routines then are filmed professionally and/or performed in various community events in the region. The ELITE Dance Crew is a division of the North Dakota Ballet Company and Academy.
