PrintA New List of Careers in Dance
The dance field offers unconventional career paths that may begin in a number of educational settings where training usually starts at a young age. Many da
ncers expand their careers by enrolling in college programs to earn degrees as dance educators, administrators, notators, writers, and scholars in addition to working as performers and choreographers. They may earn their degree before, during or after a professional dancing career. Other dancers may choose not to perform professionally, but instead pursue employment through private academies, public schools, freelance work, physical therapy or other related field. Regardless of the path chosen, dancers now have a wide variety of options for their education and career pursuits—perhaps more than any other field.
