Universal Orlando Youth Programs

Dance is Universal! A Workshop with the Professionals

In this newly enhanced workshop, choose from one of two paths, each with customizable features led by our very own choreographers and performers. The Master Class focuses on dance fundamentals, specialized one-on-one feedback, and a choreographed combination to one genre of your choice. The Audition Workshop features two genres and tips for polishing headshots, resumes, and a mock audition to prepare dancers for real-world career opportunities.
