"Participating in the previous season of HAD provided remarkable opportunities for me. I learned from new instructors and choreographers while surrounded by incredibly talented dancers.

Audition & Application Process Overview

We're pleased to announce the 2023 Elevation Performing Arts Scholarships! Offering scholarships to San Antonio, TX and surrounding area dancers is critical for fulfilling our mission of serving and supporting young artists focused on dance as a serious aspect of their future. While dancers may not need wings to fly, we're here to ensure they have what they need to thrive.


The Elevation Performing Arts Scholarships submission process consists of three requirements:

  2. A dance video submission following all the requirements outlined below emailed to had.elevation@gmail.com

All three of these will need to be submitted no later than February 28, 2023. 


There will also be a one-month preparation period for all finalists, called the Professional Development Series, from mid-March to May of 2023. The Development Series will include dance training, educational lectures, and self-development. The final ten will also learn choreography for an opening and closing dance for the Gala. In addition, the dancers will perform a three-minute solo of their choice as a final audition process at the Gala. 


Three scholarship winners will be honored with a first, second, and third place monetary award to invest in their future dance training. Up to $10,000 in scholarships will be awarded.
