The WyND Program

12 - 18 Year Olds

WyND Dance Program is Columbus’ very first pre-professional youth company, proudly dedicated to nurturing the next generation of talented dancers. We firmly believe that young dancers should have no ceiling to their training, allowing them the opportunity to start their journey with WyND and seamlessly transition into a professional dance experience.

Our program encourages dancers to grow and learn. They have opportunities to train and perform alongside the talented members of the professional dance company Whirlwind.

Participation in our WyND Program requires an audition/meeting with our Program Director. Please email us at thewelldirectors@gmail.com if you are interested.

Once accepted into our program, to register you can create an account on our Studio Pro Portal and register under The Well 2024-25 classes tab then look for The WyND Program (full-time) 12-18 yo. tab.
