Summer Program

Two Programs Offer a Well-Rounded Dance Curriculum

Juniors’ Program (dancers age 12 to 20): Intensive training for the dedicated ballet dance student. Emphasis on Classical Ballet, including Pointe, Pas de Deux and Variations (at appropriate grade levels). Character, Mime, Flamenco, Modern, and Jazz classes for a broader experience. Open to beginners, elementary, intermediate and advanced students. Studio performance on the last day of the program.

Children’s Program (dancers age 8 to 11): Typical daily schedule includes one hour of ballet, one hour of jazz, one hour performance class (ballet or jazz), and one hour of specialty dance (folk, mime, choreography and musical theater). The young dancers day includes ballet history illustrated with ballet videos and twice-a-week craft session.
