2025 National Awards Competition: Ballet

2025 National Awards Competition: Ballet

Each year the Washington, D.C. chapter and other NSAL chapters nationwide are invited to conduct competitions in a designated discipline. The winners of the local chapter contests are then eligible to compete at the national level. Local chapters assume travel and lodging expenses for their winner(s) to attend the national competition and convention, this year to be held May 8-10, 2025 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

 
 

NSAL-DC is pleased to announce its Ballet competition to select the 2025 winner to represent the chapter at the National Awards Competition in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania on May 8-10 where top competitors receive cash awards totaling $40,000 or more. The DC chapter will award to its 1st, 2nd and 3rd place winners $3000, $2000, and $1000. Applications are due to the DC Chapter Chair by March 22, 2025. This chapter has no registration fee. The competition is virtual with no 1.5 hour ballet masterclass. Each competitor will be judged in two components, classical variation and contemporary dance as described in the competition information. Please send a link to your video to the NSAL-DC ballet chair, Rena Bernardini as well as any questions.
