8-Week Online Program
A one-of-a-kind choreography and mentoring program where dancers of all levels and backgrounds take a deep dive into creativity, self-expression, and community.
Limited spots are available.
Our Dance Choreography Intensive for Teens is open to all high school students, ages 13-18 years old. During our program, students participate as Young Choreographers. We will match each Young Choreographer with a dance professional who guides them through creating an original dance piece. At the end of the program, Young Choreographers will produce a fully-staged online performance that showcases the dances they make.
