The Lloyd Shaw Foundation (LSF) offers several scholarships to qualified dance leaders, musicians, and teachers.
Some dance leaders, musicians, and teachers may qualify for both an LSF scholarship and a work scholarship. Ask your local dance community to sponsor you. Dance organizations sometimes offer financial assistance to members of their dance community to attend a camp where they could learn skills which would benefit the organization. Cumberland Dance Week offers several such skill-building opportunities through our Learning Tracks: Callers’ Intensive Workshop, Sound Apprenticeship, Music Track, How to Be a Dance Ambassador, and Dance Event Planning & Preparation.
