Week one of our NYC Pre-Professional Contemporary Summer Intensive has been nothing short of electric. From grounded, breath-driven phrases to explosive leaps and moments of stillness, our dancers have embraced the artistry, athleticism, and vulnerability that contemporary dance demands. In just a few days, they’ve explored new ways of moving, connected with inspiring faculty, and begun building the creative trust that fuels powerful performance. We can’t wait to see how they continue to grow, take risks, and make bold choices in the weeks ahead.
