About

Vitacca Houston’s Vocational Training Program is our evening training option for beginning, intermediate, and advanced dancers ages 8–18. This training opportunity offers a focused environment for study outside of normal school hours, including both foundational classes and excellent advanced training for focused dancers. The pre-professional to professional curriculum includes advanced technical training in ballet, pointe, modern, contemporary, and jazz

Our Vocational Training Program dancers are invited to perform in the end of season performance, though it is not mandatory. We offer further performance opportunities to dancers accepted into the Vitacca Studio Company (ages 12+), Vitacca Ballet Youth Ensemble (invitation by Director), or Vitacca Artists Performance Company (ages 8+).
