Audition for the Professional Company
Ballet Embody seeks male-identifying dancers to join the Professional Company for the 2025-26 Season.
Ballet Embody seeks male + female professional company dancers for its upcoming 2025-26 performance season. The Company provides modest stipends for rehearsals and performances. Currently, we plan for several evening length performances in in the Fall Season, including our first ever Fall Gala Event, The Maryland Nutcracker, and Spring Season. Additional performances are likely due to festival acceptance, gala invitations, etc.

Ability to transport self to rehearsal location in alignment with the set rehearsal schedule.
-

Due to the growth Ballet Embody has experienced, dancers are only able to audition for the Professional Company at the upcoming audition. Dancers are not invited to audition during Company Class at this time.
