If you want nothing more than to dance with The KAR faculty as much as possible, work, work, work to become a KAR Protégé. Dancers with varying skill levels are chosen in every city on tour. The KAR Protégé program gives dancers the opportunity to train with The KAR choreographers in every regional city. Plus, members receive free tuition for a FULL calendar year. 

In addition to going on tour with The KAR staff, Protégés make invaluable connections with some of the industry’s biggest names. These connections are theirs to keep for a lifetime and definitely come in handy down the road. Protégés also get discounted rates to attend classes at the Hollywood Dance Experience.  Working alongside choreographers and creative directors like Nancy O’Meara and Alex Kessinger & Rachael Leitson is an award that keeps on giving. Anytime spent with this faculty is an opportunity hundreds of thousands of aspiring dancers desperately want.

The great thing about KAR is any dancer can participate and learn. Whether you’re just starting dance or working towards the Elite Protégé status, KAR gives its resources to everyone. These resources land their dancers gigs with artists like Justin Bieber, Beyoncé, Lady Gaga, and many more. To feel the rush that KAR’s environment brings to your body, come join us this season.
