Sure, you can have a professional dance career without being in a dance company. Dance companies represent the non-profit end of the dance industry, but that leaves the entire array of for-profit/ commercial dance jobs. Such jobs include dance work in film and tv; stage productions such as Broadway shows, touring productions, and casinos; backup dancers; cruise ships and theme parks; industrial promotions; and entertainment in bars and restaurants.
