auditions


AUDItions

Dancers can audition in two different ways.

  • Live auditions are being held in NYC and at Kaatsbaan in Tivoli.

  • Dancers may also submit a video audition.

You must audition in order to be considered for a placement into Kaatsbaan Ballet Intensive. Students may only audition once each year. Online pre-registration is required for all auditions. Registration opens on November 1, 2024.

Dancers who have participated in past Kaatsbaan Ballet Intensives must audition. Past participation does not guarantee you a place in KBI.
