  Camp Description:  The Teen Int/ Adv Dance Intensive is total immersion in  multi- disciplinary styles of  dance including Ballet, Modern, Jazz, Contemporary, Hip Hop and Composition. The Intensive runs  for two weeks concentrating on building technical skills and artistry. Our goal is to push the dancer past their current level and give them a boost up as the enter back into their fall classes.

 We understand the value of dancers being strong actors onstage and a theater experience focusing on building characterization will also be included. Thursday "Specialty Workshops" in  turning, jumping, as well as lectures in Anatomy, Dance Vocabulary, and contemporary issues in Dance will round out the day. The popular composition class that presents choreographic exercises for each dancer and encourages them to find their own movement signature.
