This program is designed for the mature artist, ages 18-24, involved
in the pursuit of higher education. Dancers will have daily technique
in ballet and modern dance, and will participate in classes focused
on ABT repertory, pointe work, composition, production, and choreography.
This is a chance for the college dancer to further develop their
artistic talents in a challenging and professional environment,
while intensively training with world-class ABT faculty.
This three-week program will take place at ABT’s 890 Broadway
studios in New York City. The program, headed by Melissa Allen Bowman,
Artistic Director of Summer Intensives, will include renowned ABT
faculty and accompanists. College credit options are available.
