Training Subsidy Program (TSP)

Many dance artists across Canada do not have the luxury of attending a “company class” for their daily training: the financial burden on the artist required to maintain peek condition can often be stressful. The TSP program* offers subsidy for various types of training in order to support the artist in their pursuit of personal and professional excellence. Available to CADA/BC members in the “Professional Artist” and “Emerging Professional Artist” categories only!
