BALLET IDAHO'S NEW TRAINEE PROGRAM 

Ballet Idaho’s Trainee Program is diving into its second year, abundant with inspiration for the next generation of dancers. After observing deficiencies in dancers from some traditional conservatory-style programs, Ballet Idaho Artistic Director Garrett Anderson, sought to improve the trajectory of training by developing a program that allows dancers to transition from student to professional effectively and efficiently. Though only in its second year, the program has a proven track record with two former trainees receiving apprenticeship contracts with Ballet Idaho for their 21-22 season, with plans to hire yet more into the company this year. In the words of Anderson, "While many students come to us with solid training, we work to further that training and teach them the adaptive skills they need to become artists. In this way, this program has proven to be a vital bridge between student and professional. It has been wonderful to see these young dancers grow as artists while sharing our studio shows and stage with the professional company; affording them invaluable experience as they prepare for promising professional careers at Ballet Idaho and elsewhere."
