Last week, our Ballet Trainees had the opportunity to learn from Emmy Award–winning choreographer, filmmaker, and educator Ben Needham-Wood benneedhamwood. ⁠ ⁠ Currently the Artistic Director of Boulder Ballet in Colorado and founder of Redirecting Dance, Ben brought a thoughtful and inspiring approach to the studio, challenging our trainees to deepen their artistry while refining technical clarity and presence.⁠ ⁠ We are so excited to have Ben join our faculty this summer at our Joffrey Colorado Summer Intensive, held in Boulder, Colorado from July 6 – July 24, 2026. Designed for dancers ages 8–18, this program offers focused training in a supportive and inspiring environment. ⁠ ⁠ Find an audition near you today using the "Audition Dates & Locations" link in bio, and learn more about our Joffrey Colorado Summer Intensive by visiting the "Summer Intensives" link in bio.⁠ ⁠ 📸 juliana.greenwood & jordanaether ⁠ ⁠ #joffreyballetschool #ballettraining #balletclass #nycdance
