Paige’s path to LA

Paige Haugen, 18 years old, was awarded a $500 scholarship to The Hollywood Summer Tour at Celebration Talent Dance Competition in Duluth, MN. One senior soloist is chosen at each regional competition to attend this program in LA to further their dance training, and prep for pursuing a professional dance career. She competed a contemporary solo receiving a Platinum award at the top competitive level. Paige Haugen dances for Fusion Center in Bemidji.

The Hollywood Summer Tour is an invitation only intensive program for advanced dancers wishing to pursue a career in commercial dance in Los Angeles. The HST is comprised of three levels encompassing dancers of all ages. Dancers are given a once in a lifetime opportunity to be mentored by top professionals living and working in the Los Angeles entertainment industry. Students will participate in classes at prestigious LA studios (Millennium Dance Complex, T Molly Studios), work with top choreographers, shoot music videos, attend Live TV Show tapings (So You Think You Can Dance, America’s Got Talent), receive a photo shoot/professional head shots, attend dance educational seminars, and showcase their talent in front of top agents.

All money raised will go toward tuition, flight, and lodging.
