SUMMER STUDY NYC: A Contemporary Dance Intensive

Study with New York’s Artistic Directors/Choreographers and train with professional dancers.

SUMMER STUDY NYC is about total immersion in New York’s contemporary dance world. The program offers intermediate and advanced dancers, age 18 and older, an opportunity to study and perform under the guidance of some of the best Artistic Directors and Choreographers working today.

Improve your technique through daily class with Steps world-renowned faculty while exploring the movement, choreography and repertory in week long workshops with Camille A. Brown, Patrick Corbin, Andrea Miller, Elisa Monte, Jennifer Muller, Stephen Petronio, Nathan Trice, and Kevin Wynn, master teachers in the annual STEPS with CONTEMPORARY MASTERS series.

Enhance your movement expression with CREATIVE TOOLS, developed and led by master teacher and choreographer Elisa Monte with guest artists Sidra Bell, Francesa Harper, Loni Landon, Nelly Van Bommel, and Pavel Zustiak.
