Art Areas

Dance

Cardinal Carter Academy for the Arts offers a highly enriched Dance Program for students in Grades 7 to 12. 

As a foundation, students are trained in both ballet and modern techniques. Dance performance is an integral part of the curriculum and students are given numerous opportunities to perform. 

In addition, students learn the aspects of dance theory and composition, and begin to choreograph their own creative works. Through their work in our professional theatre and exposure to professional dance artists, students will develop an insight of what it is like to work professionally within the arts. ​

The Dance Faculty has extensive dance experience and they are able to help each dancer grow both technically and artistically. A new component to the arts curriculum at Cardinal Carter Academy for the Arts is to expose students to all of the arts areas. 

This will provide students with diverse knowledge and an appreciation of all art forms.
