What we are about…

Helix Dance Theatre is a non-profit organization supporting a pre-professional dance company operating on Vancouver Island, British Columbia for over 14 years. The performing arts dance company is for serious youth dancers between the ages of 13 to 19 years. A stepping stone for dancers looking for a more artistic approach to Modern / Contemporary Dance.

Under the artistic direction of Sarah DeVito, the company offers dancers the opportunity to rehearse, workshop and perform creative works in the modern / contemporary dance genre. Dancers come from a variety of dance backgrounds from various communities all over Vancouver Island. Opportunities for the dancers come in the form of workshops with professionals, creative rehearsal projects and enrichment field trips to view world class dance shows and artists.

Dancers audition annually to be a part of the company and must be a part of an intensive dance program through a home studio. Dancers should encompass strong technical skills in ballet and modern/contemporary genres and be open and willing participants.
