Dance

The dance academy is a vocationally focused, four-year sequential program which encompasses the four cornerstones of dance: performing, creating, knowing history and culture and analyzing and critiquing. Students will develop their technique while exploring different styles of dance in the performance aspect of class. They will engage in the choreographic process and learn constructive critique skills. Students will perform dance works in two showcases as well as community outreach throughout the year and will work with a guest artist in a mini-residency twice a year. They will also engage in research to explore careers, dance history and the influence of dance in culture. We offer higher level learning for the Junior and Senior dancers through the International Baccalaureate curriculum.

"My experience so far in the VPA is everything I wished for and more, the teachers, students, and community as a whole are generally the best people I have met. In my time in the dance academy I have learned how to choreograph dances for myself and a group, everything you do in the academy’s is supported by teachers and they are all are so willing to help you with your ideas. The VPA has not only given me new opportunities with dance, but it has also given me friends for a lifetime." - PD '28

"The RBR Dance Academy has fully shaped who I've become as a dancer. In my three years so far, I've learned technique, how to be an encapsulating performer, and how to express my creativity through the art of dance. Every teacher has their students' best interests at heart and it is a priority for their students to thrive within their craft." - GT '27
