The Apprentice Program at KJ was developed to train dancers at a higher, more intense level than those of recreational classes. The dancers training in the Apprentice Program have the goal to dance in a competitive, fast paced manner to develop their craft. Most of the apprentice dancers take classes with Pulse Company members but do not compete. The KJ Staff sees potential in the dancers in the Apprentice Program and pushes their individual limits to possibly ready them for Pulse. The Junior Apprentice Program is for dancers ages 7-11 and the Teen Apprentice Program is for dancers 12-18 years of age.
