Having a duel purpose Project Moves offers aspiring dance artists an incredible scope of dance, theatre and performance training while providing audiences of all ages thought provoking works guaranteed to move the mind body and soul.  What began as a successful competition team, this program has now evolved into a true pre-professional company replacing the competition emphasis with “dance as art”.

Raising thousands of dollars for various charities, The Gold School produces two nationally recognized benefit concerts annually. With professional direction, choreography, and lighting, these productions offer young dance artists unparalleled performance training. Dancers are afforded the opportunity to work with our professional in-house and guest choreographers on creative works in all genres of dance.

Because the full time faculty determines casting for the season’s choreography dancers are given the opportunity to audition in each class taken. Technically qualified, motivated, dependable, and most importantly, dancers that are pleasant to work with, always receive first consideration when casting.
