  • Career-building seminars led by working professionals
  • Agent conversations that demystify the professional world
  • A professional VIDEO SHOOT to start your portfolio

Katapult Academy isn’t just about dance steps —it’s about teaching dancers how to navigate the next chapter with confidence.
