About PYP
Peninsula Young Performers’ (PYP) vision is to encourage further development of performance, presentation, strength, technique, confidence and self-expression in each dancer. Students selected to be in PYP are given additional opportunities including exciting extra choreography and performances, dance training and performing tours in Canada and elsewhere (when it is a traveling season), as well as many local community performances and competitions.
Peninsula Young Performers is a registered non-profit organization that exists to enhance its students education in dance and Performing Arts. PYP provides direct community benefit, including performances at local public schools, benefits and fundraisers, and the Sidney Santa Claus parade.
All dancers must read the 2 documents that are located below prior to attending their audition: 2026-2027 PYP Requirements and 2026-2027 PYP Agreement. Both of these will be available at this link closer to audition time.
