During the last weekend of February, hundreds of ballet dancers ages 9 to 19 auditioned for the Youth America Grand Prix (YAGP) regional semi-finals at the Texas School for the Deaf. Throughout the weekend, students attended workshops, competitions and dance classes. Selected competitors continued to the finals in New York.
Each year, YAGP awards more than $250,000 a year in scholarships to send young dancers to schools and dance companies.
