Summer Intensive 2013

Summer is the perfect time for a dedicated student to further refine his or her abilities. When academic classes are in the distant future, weeks away, and when daylight hours are extended.  Each Summer Southern Dance Theatre provides a progressive, comprehensive curriculum designed to take dancers to the next level, no matter their goals.  We invite intermediate and advanced dancers ages 10-18 to audition for our Summer Intensive Program to take advantage of these summer weeks.

Curriculum includes: ballet, pointe, variations, modern, contemporary, leaps and turns, jazz, choreography, and more!

Who can benefit: Seniors who will be auditioning for performing arts companies, Middle and High School students who intend to audition for Bak or Dreyfoos Schools of the Arts, and those seeking other performance opportunities, such as through The Dancer’s Edge Company.

Students will get the experience of the audition process and the opportunity to work with well-established and experienced instructors as well as like-minded, talented students throughout the summer.

To join this outstanding summer dance program, students must audition. Please contact us to sign up for the audition or register in person.
