Company Details
ZT Dance Performance Company
The JZT Dance Performance Company competes in multiple genres, including jazz, lyrical, contemporary, tap, and hip hop. Dancers who are accepted into the JZT Performance Company will have core requirements that must be met.
Commitment
Being accepted into the JZT Dance HAWKS is an honor, and 100% commitment is required. Your dedication to being on time, prepared, and present for rehearsals is essential to the success of the Company.
Dancers who audition for the JZT Performance Company commit to the entire season, from August 2025 to June 2026. This commitment should be discussed within your family so that everyone understands the expectations, benefits, and opportunities that come with being part of the Company.
Please note that not all dancers who audition will be selected. While this may be disappointing, we encourage all dancers to view the experience as an opportunity for growth and work toward joining the Company in the following year.
JZT Hawks Company Auditions - 2025
Auditions for the JZT Dance Performance Company will be held during our Summer Intensives in August 2025. Participation in the intensive is a requirement for all prospective company members, whether new or returning.
If you are unable to attend the Summer Intensives and would like to be considered for the company, please schedule a private audition prior to the intensive. To schedule a private audition, please call the studio at (201) 867-4500.

Rehearsals are mandatory. The schedule will be announced, but they are usually held on Friday evenings, Saturdays and possibly Sundays (varying times) beginning in September.

Exact times for each rehearsal will be posted in advance.
