1st Position
Scholarship
As of summer 2024, we are undergoing an internal assessment and revamping of our scholarship program. This revision will aim to better serve our community per feedback we’ve received.
What does the Scholarship fund?
1st Position Scholarships are intended to fund basic dance training and technique classes that enroll on a semester basis. 1st Position Scholarships do not fund registration fees, costume fees, voice classes, acting classes or any other fees or costs that are not specifically related to dance instruction. Due to the popularity of our Scholarship Program, the Steamboat Dance Theatre may not be able to fund 100% of tuition expenses. We do, however, aim to provide as much assistance as possible, and to reach each family in need on a regular basis. We do not want finances to be a limiting factor in dance education and experience. We encourage you to apply or ask questions!
Who can apply?
Yampa Valley residents with financial need wishing to take dance classes in the Yampa Valley, regardless of age or ability level.
When can I apply? Our schedule is being revamped and will be released in February 2025.
Our goal is to help bridge the gap between the high cost of living and accessibility to dance.
