“Working with Sarah transformed the way I prepare, perform, and believe in myself as a professional dancer. Her coaching strengthened my confidence, consistency, and mindset, and helped me feel truly ready to step into higher-level opportunities with clarity and purpose.”

— Professional Dancer

“She doesn’t just train dancers—she mentors them and truly cares about their success. Because of her guidance, we gained clarity on what it takes to move to the next level with confidence in the path forward.”

— Dance Parent

  • Looking for shortcuts

  • Not willing to stay consistent

  • Expecting results without doing the work

  • Not open to honest, direct feedback

  • Wanting guarantees instead of guidance, preparation, and strategy

This is not for everyone. ‍ ‍

QUESTIONS YOU MIGHT BE ASKING

  • No. Submit the mentorship application first. If your application looks like a strong fit, you may be invited to a short, complimentary fit call to confirm alignment and answer enrollment questions.

  • No. The private fit call is complimentary and is used only to confirm whether the mentorship is the right fit. A full 1:1 Strategy Call is a separate paid service for dancers and families seeking personalized strategy outside the mentorship.

  • This mentorship is for dancers pursuing college teams, professional teams, or industry opportunities who want personalized strategy, accountability, and honest feedback over 8 weeks. Parents can be involved in the process as well.

  • Because this mentorship is intentionally limited, qualified applicants may be offered a waitlist spot or a next-best option while waiting for the next opening.

  • Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis. If your application looks like a strong fit, Team Sarah Schnee will contact you with the appropriate next step, which may be a private fit call or a private enrollment invitation.

  • Yes. For aspiring dancers, parent involvement is encouraged. This mentorship often works best when the dancer and parent are aligned on goals, timing, investment, and next steps.

  • No. No honest mentor can guarantee an outcome in dance. What I can give you is experienced guidance, honest feedback, stronger preparation, clearer materials, and a more strategic plan.

  • You’ll have weekly check-ins and boundaried messaging support for focused questions between calls. This is designed to keep you moving without turning the mentorship into unlimited daily coaching.

READY TO APPLY?

If this feels like the right next step, submit your application and we’ll review it carefully. If it looks like a strong fit, our team will reach out with next steps.
