Description

Geared towards college-aged students, Grainger Academy’s Contemporary Ballet Trainee Summer Intensive provides a unique contemporary ballet focused experience for students ages 18-22. Over the course of 3 weeks, students will participate in the same training curriculum as our year-round Contemporary Ballet Trainee Program, taking classes in ballet, contemporary technique, pointe, modern, repertoire, improvisation, Pilates, and more. Additionally, students will have the opportunity to engage with The Joffrey Ballet company during the intensive. This well-rounded program uses a rigorous and holistic training model to focus on artistic excellence and gives a unique insight into what it’s like to be a Contemporary Ballet Trainee in the Grainger Academy. Just like our Contemporary Ballet Trainee Program, this intensive helps prepare students for a professional career in concert dance and culminates with a performance of the learned repertoire.
