The Archive Conservatory | Auditions Now Open

Post-Graduate Contemporary Program | 2026–2027

We are honoured to open applications for the first season of The Archive Conservatory—a post-graduate program designed for dancers who are ready to deepen their training, expand their creative practice, and work in a space rooted in curiosity and community.

This Conservatory was built as a home for artists seeking more than technical refinement—dancers drawn to connection, inquiry, discipline, and a space to uncover an honest, individual voice. Through daily technique, creative research, somatic practices, professional development, and collaborative film and performance projects, students move through a year shaped by intention, expansion, and meaningful artistic discovery.

To audition (in person or online) all applicants must submit an online application form.

Once submitted, dancers may either:
• Book an in-person audition class, or
• Complete the online video audition

For dancers aged 17+
Season begins Fall 2026

If you’re seeking a program that meets you where you are and challenges you toward where you’re headed, we would love to meet you.

Apply through the link in our bio.

Your next step begins here.

The Archive Conservatory is built for dancers ready to deepen their craft, expand their artistry, and train within an intimate, high-level environment rooted in presence and community.

Our next in-person AUDITION is March 22nd.

All dancers must apply online first to be considered for the audition.

If you’re graduating, taking a gap year, or simply searching for a season of focused training… this program was designed for you.

We’re also excited to announce that registration is now open for our Summer Intensive 2026 | June 22–26.

This five-day immersive experience is open to all dancers 15+, not just those joining the Conservatory in the fall. An opportunity to step into the space, challenge yourself, connect, and train alongside other committed artists.

Applications and summer registration are available through our website.

We can’t wait to move with you.

We spend years learning how to move…

And then, slowly, we begin to recognize ourselves within it.

The Archive Conservatory Summer Intensive June 22–26 | 9:00am–2:45pm

Join us for an immersive week of training, creation, and exploration at The Archive Conservatory. Designed for dancers ages 15+, this intensive offers a glimpse into what a week within the Conservatory program may look and feel like.

While mandatory for Conservatory dancers, the intensive is also open to the public for those wanting to experience our environment and approach to training.

Whether dancers are preparing for nationals, looking to expand their self-choreography capacity, or simply wanting to deepen their training in a focused environment, this week is designed to support both technical and artistic growth.

Registration is now open through our website. We can’t wait to move with you.
