Are you ready to take your dancing to the next level?

GMB is holding auditions for the GMB Dance Company—a performance-focused program for passionate, committed dancers who love to grow, create, and shine on stage!

  • Junior Company | Ages 8–11

  • Youth Company | Ages 12–18

Company dancers represent GMB in community performances, special projects, and creative collaborations. We’re looking for kind, focused dancers with strong teamwork skills and a love for performance.

No experience with auditions? No problem—we’ll guide you through it!

Come dance with us. Bring your heart, your energy, and your love of movement.

The GMB Company aims to give students a deeper understanding of pre-professional dance training and performance as they pursue their art.

For dancers aged 8 to 18, the Company is a full-season program designed for dancers committed to their practice in preparation for the stage.

GMB Company offers opportunities to learn, perform, and grow through ensemble dance pieces. Additionally, there is the potential for students to work on solo, duo, and small-group choreography.

Dancers are given opportunities to perform in front of others, building confidence and community.

Performance-Focused

The GMB Dance Company focuses on preparing dancers for the stage in any performative setting.

GMB Company is a program designed for students who, in addition to their weekly technique class(es), learn and perform new choreography for various community events throughout the season. Dancers are required to audition to be considered for membership. 

Audition requirements

1) Dancers must be able to commit to the listed dates for Company Class in addition to their weekly technique classes and performance opportunities. (Click Here for Projected Company Dates for 2025/2026)

2) Dancers wishing to audition for the GMB Company for the 2025/2026 Season must prepare a short statement, submitted in writing or spoken aloud, that answers the question:

“Why do you want to dance with GMB Company?”

3) Dancers must prepare a 30 to 60-second piece of choreography to be performed at the audition. This demonstrates a level of fearlessness and the student’s general development.

Dancers do not require previous dance training to audition.

If dancers want to use music, please provide the specific Spotify or YouTube link. The song's name and artist are OK, but some songs have different versions. Please bring your Bluetooth-compatible audio device if your accompaniment is unavailable on Spotify or YouTube.

GMB Dance hopes everyone who auditions will be selected to join the Company. However, this may not be the case. The primary criteria for selection will be attitude and desire.

If your dancer is not ready to join the Company for the upcoming Season, GMB Dance will notify you privately and be available to discuss the decision. Dancers and their families must be able to commit to the proposed schedule and adhere to the Company Agreement.

Audition Date Update

Due to a community conflict, we’ve moved the GMB Company audition from the originally planned date, Saturday, June 14, to Saturday, June 21.
Thanks so much for your understanding—we’re excited to see every dancer shine!

Representing the School with Pride and Purpose

All GMB dancers are held to high standards of dedication, respect, and teamwork—but as public ambassadors for the school, GMB Company members are expected to go even further. Their conduct, both in and out of class, should reflect the values of GMB Dance and serve as a positive example for others.

We know that everyone has tough days, and we encourage students to speak openly about how they’re feeling. However, if a dancer repeatedly disrupts class, shows disregard for the group, or intentionally harms the learning environment, we will follow up with the student and their Primary Contact to find a constructive path forward.

Company members must consistently demonstrate the K.A.R.E. Guidelines in all spaces they represent GMB Dance:

  • Kindness – Try your best and allow others the same opportunity.

  • Attitude – Bring a positive mindset to help foster growth and resilience.

  • Respect – Listen carefully, care for the space, and support each other.

  • Enjoyment – Dance should feel joyful and fulfilling. If that spark fades, let’s talk.

2024-2025 Company Members

*Company Agreement*

As members of the GMB Dance Company, we strive to embody kindness, positivity, and an open mind. We appreciate focus, helpfulness, drive, passion, and hard work, as well as respect for our fellow dancers, shared spaces, and each other's belongings.

We value consistent attendance but understand that life is, at times, unpredictable. If a company member must be absent from a rehearsal or performance, we encourage open communication with fellow members and instructors to help manage any missed time. Even injured dancers are warmly invited to join us by observing and staying engaged in class.

We will let GMB know as soon as possible, in writing, about any anticipated absences. If a company member feels unwell, we have the option of remaining engaged in rehearsals virtually through FaceTime or Zoom.

If anyone feels uncomfortable for any reason, we are committed to fostering a safe environment through supportive discussion. In difficult situations, our goal is to seek a resolution together.

In the spirit of teamwork, if an issue arises and we cannot reach a resolution, we agree to kindly put it aside and move forward without holding onto any negative feelings.

GMB members understand that any critiques or feedback from instructors, peers and adjudicators are intended to enhance our understanding of dance technique and performance skills and do not reflect one’s personal worth.
