Summer Intensive 2010
June 21, 2010 to July 30, 2010
The Summer Intensive Program is a 6-week training program for pre-professional students, ages 16-25, with a minimum of three years of consistent training in ballet and modern.
The program is structured to advance the technical skills of our students in a wide variety of techniques. Students take 12-15 technique and workshop classes weekly from our core curriculum which includes a daily ballet class and a daily class of Horton and/or Graham-based modern. All students are evaluated in placement classes at the beginning of the program to determine the proper level in each technique.
Schedules and Placement Classes >>
The core curriculum is supplemented by additional classes in jazz, tap, hip hop, Dunham, barre à terre, yoga and body conditioning. Men’s ballet, women’s ballet and two levels of pointe are offered for students with strong ballet training. Intermediate and advanced students may also take ballet partnering and modern partnering. Repertory workshops with guest artists are offered for intermediate/advanced dancers, and several elective workshops are offered to students of all levels.
