Dance in Focus Program

May?June Intensive Occurs: Thursday, Monday, Saturday & Sunday May 26, (May 30th- optional), June 4 & 5, 2022
Dance in Focus is a partnership between the Brooklyn Academy of Music and Drew University. Students will attend several weekend long dance intensive workshops led by some of the most prominent dance choreographers presented on BAM's main stages as well as BAM's dynamic teaching dance artists. These intensives include the opportunity to attend BAM main stage shows. All workshops will be held on BAM's campus.

Dance in Focus provides a space for high school-aged dancers to explore, experience, and expand their understanding of process, technique, and critical response to realize pathways that cultivate holistic artistic development for young artists and practitioners. This program aims to create holistic artistic spaces for young adults to engage, share, and exchange through artistic and academic mentorship and cross learning.
