This past week was our first week of our five week summer intensive program. Each week, our students will take classes throughout the morning and afternoon. Our WEAD faculty, along with several guest teachers, will teach them classes in ballet, pointe, jazz, modern, contemporary, hip-hop, and Pilates. Additionally, one choreographer will come in each week and create a full piece on the dancers, which they work on every day of the week. There is a new choreographer for each week of the intensive program in order to expose the dancers to a diverse range of choreography. These pieces are just a sampling of what the students are exposed to all week long, and for the most part are unpolished works as the dancers only have four short rehearsals with their choreographer. Each week we will post the video to our blog so that you can see a little bit of what our students have been working so hard on! The following is a link to this week’s video: a wonderful ballet piece choreographed by Ms. Audrey.
