Dance is a universal language, a powerful art form that requires tremendous discipline and offers great rewards.

The VCS Dance Company program offers an intensive pre-professional, conservatory-type training program with a concentration on foundational dance techniques, experience with classic and contemporary dance repertoire, diverse dance forms, and creative expression through performance opportunities and choreography studies and production. VCS Dance Company has performed at Disneyland, Universal Studios, reality shows, fundraisers, pep rallies, chapels, sports events, and more!
This intensive training builds a foundation in the areas of ballet and jazz with opportunities in tap, hip hop, contemporary and dance composition.
