Scholarships
We have 3 different scholarships that we award annually. They are listed below:
Tony Colden Jr Full Out Scholarship - The Tony Colden Jr Full Out Scholarship was our very first scholarship to be created. This scholarship was created to award a local RVA dancer who embodies the traits of Tony. We are looking for dancers that work hard, is kind, and shows passion for dance. Dancers from any local studio are eligible to apply.

Gold Heart Scholarship - The Gold Heart Scholarship was created in 2022. Tony is a graduate of Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU) and this scholarship was created to recognize a college student who embodies the traits of Tony both personally and in dance.
