BOARD OF ADVISORS
BOARD OF ADVISORS
Our advisors help shape the Legacy experience by offering industry insight, mentorship, and access to real-world opportunities. Through guest workshops, creative collaborations, and career-focused events, they ensure our students remain connected to the evolving professional landscape.
As part of their role, the Board facilitates one-on-one industry consultations for students pursuing summer intensives, conservatory training, or professional careers. These personalized sessions connect dancers with working professionals—Broadway performers, ballet dancers, commercial artists, concert dancers, and touring artists—based on their specific goals and interests.
Students receive guidance on every aspect of the professional journey: audition preparation and etiquette, headshot and dance résumé development, reels, summer program and college submissions, long-term training strategy, internship placements, mentorship connections, referral letters, and casting opportunities.
At Legacy, our Board of Advisors bridges the space between education, studio, and stage—empowering students to move forward with purpose, clarity, and confidence. The act of assisting a the next generation of artists is a cornerstone of dance culture, and it is our ethos to carry on that tradition. By sharing their time, knowledge, and experience, our advisors help ensure that Legacy students step into their futures with the same support and generosity that shaped their own.
