The Company

The Houston Metropolitan Dance Center is proud of its Houston Met Too, Training Youth Company. This company is a product of the growth of the school and the need to produce our own dancers for the professional company The Houston Metropolitan Dance Company. The Houston Met Too training program for young dancers creates the setting needed to learn how a professional company works and what it takes to become a professional dancer. For the Houston Metropolitan Dance Company it provides a continuous flow of dancers who are well trained in our style. The program provides the faculty and dance education needed in the Southwest United States on a year-round basis to enhance the training of our young dancers. This company can be seen performing as the “Curtain Warmers” for many Society of Performing Arts Performances, at the Children’s Museum as well as their own concert at the Heinen Theater.
