ADMISSION---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Admittance to professionnal training is subjected to one audition:
- an evaluation of knowledge in jazz dancing (a relative ignorance in jazz dancing is not
   penalizing if knowledge in classical or contemporary dancing can be taken into account)
- artistic aptitudes
- physical criteria (the instrument of a dancer is its body...)
- an interview related to motivation and targets

Considering demands from candidates geographgically very distant from one another, three formulas are avaible:
- audition on appointment, with the artistic director and the trainer in charge of pedagogy,
   at any moment of the year
- audition during the summer workshop (5 days on the beginning of august)
- video in case of extreme distance

TRAINING---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Meaning that today the intention is to train artists capable of dealing with auditions with a minimum of unexpected events, pluri-discipline is the key word.
