Scholarships
Youth Arts in Action awards scholarships to outstanding young artists who are
highly motivated and recognized for their potential for a career in the arts by
internationally known teachers. This potential has also been acknowledged through recommendations, acceptance letters
and scholarship offers from outside the state. Preference for scholarships in classical ballet is given to those who have
been accepted by major institutions such as Royal Ballet School in London, American Ballet Theatre NYC, San Francisco Ballet School,
Acadmie de Danse Classique Princesse Grace, and the Bolshoi Academy. Professionals from music and dance are consulted for their award
recommendations. Recently, these have included Principal Dancer
Wieslaw Dudek from Staatsballett Berlin and Russian ballerina and
Professor of Dance at the University of Utah, Regina Zarhina.
