SELECTION CLASSES

NYC in February 2026

For our more motivated and dedicated dancers, we have selection groups. These groups train harder and more serious, and you enter through audition. The Dance Company Turning Point Foundation was established in 2006 as an extension of the dance school, with the aim of giving talented students the opportunity to further develop their skills in dance.

We offer three selection tracks:

the Hip-Hop selection groups - Minis, Juniors, Teens and Seniors
the Modern-Jazz selection, divided into Level 1, Level 2, Level 3 and Company.

the Ballet selection, - Foundations, Progress, Advance and Principal.

Dancers have the opportunity to participate in one, two or all selection tracks, depending on their talent, commitment, and passion.

In addition to their weekly classes, we regularly invite guest teachers to give workshops, and we aim to organize a study trip abroad every two years.

Over the years, our dancers have had the opportunity to participate in the Florida Dance Festival five times, starting in 2007. In February of 2015, 2019, 2023, 2025 and 2026 our most advanced students traveled to New York City to take classes and workshops at world-renowned institutions such as Broadway Dance Center, Steps on Broadway and Brickhouse NYC. These trips also included unforgettable experiences like attending Broadway productions such as Aladdin, The Moulin Rouge and The Lion King, and enjoying breathtaking performances by the New York City Ballet, including Swan Lake and Sleeping Beauty, among others. In 2026 we competed for the first time and our hip-hop Seniors brought back the third prize in hip-hop overall at the JUMP dance convention, the biggest dance convention in the USA. Apart from that, 8 of our students won scholarships in different genres for their performances in the convention.

Meanwhile, our Juniors (ages 12–14) traveled twice as well. The first time was in 2025 to New Jersey to participate in the 24SEVEN Dance Convention, where they spent the entire weekend dancing, learning, and growing. Their hard work paid off as they proudly brought home four prestigious scholarships. In May 2026, we took the journey to the 24SEVEN dance convention in Charlotte, where our Juniors got second overall in hip-hop. 6 of our students received scholarship on this dance study trip.

Another important goal of the Company is to introduce more people — especially young people — to theatrical dance. This is done through performances and workshops. In recent years, we have held several performances for high school students as part of their Cultural and Artistic Education (C.A.V.) curriculum.

The Company also aims to provide financial support to passionate dancers who may not have the financial means to pursue their training.

The Company operates as a foundation, allowing it to function financially independently from the school.
