The Scholarship Application is intended to be filled out by the Youth Artist. The applicant will not be evaluated on grammar, spelling, sentence structure, etc. but rather: 

• How thorough the application has been completed

We ask that dancers in the ADT program are actively training. The ADT program focuses on performance and creation. Taking another dance class will develop the dancer's technique, stamina, and the various skills that will enhance the ADT experience. Actively training in dance could include dancing at a studio, school dance program, or virtual programs. Our dancer’s train all over Calgary. We can provide you a list of dance studios and community partners if you need somewhere to train.
