"My journey with NRD started through the apprenticeship program in 2013. I never knew it would lead me to work so far into this organization, beyond being a dancer. The first step is what leads you to your desired future. It's right in front of you."

Chad Ortiz
Executive Director
of Nickerson-Rossi Dance
"There has always been a strong desire for me as a dancer to immerse myself in new professional settings to further enhance my training and develop my career as a professional dancer.
Having recently moved to the West Coast, the apprenticeship program by Nickerson Rossi Dance offered just that. The program consisted of classes, rehearsals, photoshoots, performance experience, and more, which allowed opportunity for dancers to participate in a program that closely represents the life of a dancer working for a professional company."

"Creation doesn't happen without knowledge. 5 years ago I had the opportunity to take a masterclass with Nickerson-Rossi Dance. I realized very quickly how much they had to offer to the dance world, and I knew I had to be involved in some way. Taking the apprenticeship program challenged my movement, thought processes, and understanding of dance and how it relates to real world applications. I was and still am impressed with the care, outlook, and business functions of the Company. I am so thankful I had the opportunity to attend the apprenticeship program, for they treated everyone with bold respect; they truly cared about the artistry and drive of each participant. This program proved to me that there are companies who are reaching far beyond what is expected in the dance industry and I am proud to be a part of it."
