illume [ih-loom] verb
To enlighten, edify, inspire, nurture
Our greatest desire is to cultivate dance artists and technicians who find innovative ways to use their craft as a means to spread their joy and light. We strive to offer a comprehensive education of movement and technique so that our dancers will have a vehicle by which they can learn to express ideas and gain a desire to offer their art as a gift to uplift and enlighten others.
Our A-Track program is available for dancers entering 2nd grade and above who are ready for a greater level of commitment. A-Track dancers are required to attend classes twice per week and will participate in all three core disciplines: Ballet, Jazz, and Creative Composition. Class lengths vary by age, ranging from 45 minutes for our youngest companies to 75 minutes for our oldest.
A-Track dancers will have the opportunity to perform in all three annual recitals and will participate in the Utah Dance Festival in March 2027 ($150). Depending on age and level, dancers may also enroll in additional classes such as Pre-Pointe, Pointe (by invitation only), Musical Theater/Tap, Hip Hop, and Tumbling.
The mandatory A-Track Placement Audition will be held on Saturday, May 16th from 2:00–4:00 PM for all dancers interested in the 2026–2027 season. During the audition, dancers will learn choreography and technique combinations and be grouped according to skill level. Placement decisions will be shared via email, indicating which company class your dancer should register for. While skill level is the primary factor, age will also be considered to keep dancers with peers close in age.
To register, please log into your Parent Portal and select “A-Track Placement Audition.” The registration fee is $20. Dancers should wear all-black dance attire with hair secured in a bun.
Our B-Track program offers more flexibility, with classes available à la carte. Dancers may choose to take one, two, or all three core classes. B-Track is ideal for those with less experience or for families not ready to commit to multiple weekly classes. No audition is required for B-Track. Dancers may also enroll in Musical Theater/Tap, Hip Hop, and Tumbling.
