DANCER TRANSITION RESOURCE CENTRE
Helping dancers make necessary transitions into, within, and from professional performing careers since 1985.
About The DTRC
Founded in 1985, the Dancer Transition Resource Centre (DTRC) is a national, charitable organization dedicated to helping dancers make necessary transitions into, within, and from professional performing careers.
Support
We also operate as a resource centre for the dance community and general public and support activities that improve the socioeconomic conditions of artists across the country.
Counselling
Moving to a new city, starting a family, establishing a company, going back to school – these are just some of the many transitions dancers may make throughout their dance careers. Our counselling program provides practical guidance, and emotional and psychological support to dancers in transition.
Study Grants
DTRC offers a range of study and subsistence grants to help dancers address their present needs and pursue their future career goals. Dancers can build transferable skills, explore second career options and undertake studies leading to parallel and second careers.
Advocacy
Visit our Staff and Representatives. As a national charitable organization, the Dancer Transition Resource Centre is the perfect place for artists to continue advocating for artists in order to create harmony and great change within the community.
Community Resources
DTRC has Regional Representatives in Vancouver, Calgary, Winnipeg, Toronto, Montreal and Halifax who are available to all dancers and interested members of the public. You can also find more information on our website and social media platforms.
