Dear Participants, Parents and Teachers,
It is with great pleasure that we welcome you to the YAGP 2015 Semi-Finals in Boston, MA! We hope you will enjoy learning from each other as well as the many distinguished dance professionals gathered here. As many of you already know, we have designed the YAGP experience in such a way that every participant, regardless of their level of training or career goals, can benefit greatly from the multitude of educational and professional opportunities available throughout the event.
Competition entries are organized by birth date starting with our youngest participants. The only exceptions to this order are special considerations due to costume changes.
We are proud to say that in only 16 short years YAGP has become the largest student scholarship competition in the world. This is in large part due to the support of our participants and participating schools. In particular, we would like to thank the Boston, MA participating schools:
