Under the leadership of School Director Kimi Okada and Dexandro Montalvo, the ODC teen contemporary dance company performs work by the choreographers of the professional company, ODC/Dance (Brenda Way, KT Nelson, and Kimi Okada), as well as renowned guest choreographers, including Dexandro Montalvo, Mia J. Chong, Amy Foley, Chuck Wilt, Katie Faulkner, Erika Chong Shuch, Robin Dekkers, Crystaldawn Bell, and Scott Wells. Members of the Dance Jam are challenged with the creation of new works and the complexities of training in multiple dance techniques in a 5-day per week training schedule (see below).
Please note, there will be additional rehearsals scheduled between the Fall and Spring Sessions (January 2-5, 2024). The Dance Jam will also perform in the December Showcase (December 10. 2023) as well as the May Showcase, and the Step Onstage performances (May 4-5, 2024).
ODC’s Dance Jam Scholarship Fund
Scholarship opportunities available. Apply here!
Each year, ODC’s Dance Jam Scholarship Fund provides a full year of tuition, participation fees, and a stipend for ancillary expenses such as travel and dancewear for one participating student. ODC School staff will determine the scholarship recipient from students that have been selected to participate in the Dance Jam and based on financial need.
This scholarship is generously supported by the Peterson Family and Tiia Carswell, who have provided this opportunity that reduces barriers to participation for talented young dancers and promotes equity within ODC School’s highest level contemporary dance training and performance company for teens.
Partial scholarships are also available. Questions? Contact registration@odc.dance.
