Summer Dance Professional Studies

UNCSA Summer Dance has redesigned our Professional Studies intensive to make the most of the online learning experience. Our Professional Studies intensive offers a one-week deep dive into five of today's leading dance-makers' teaching and creative process. This program is designed for dancers age 15 and up, university dance majors, advanced pre-professional and professional dancers.

Classes are held 10 a.m. - 4 p.m. Monday through Friday. Daily classes include a morning physical warm-up, exploration of the creative process, creation of new material, and learning of repertory.
