July 27-August 1 – Movement Makers Intensive

• Levels F/G/H & Adults
• Movement Makers Intensive – Mon-Fri 12-6 
  • Saturday rehearsal 1:30-5:30
  • Saturday Studio Performance @ 6:30

Movement Makers is an immersive week for dancers ready to go beyond technique and into the full landscape of what dance really is — how it’s built, how it lives in the body, and how it comes to life on stage.

Dancers will explore the science behind movement — diving into anatomy, physiology, and kinesiology to understand how the body works, how to protect it, and how to communicate about it with clarity and confidence. Through lecture and movement experimentation, dancers build smarter, safer habits that serve them at every level of their training and career.

Then we’ll make something with it. Through improvisation, motif development, phrasing, rhythm, and structure, dancers craft original compositions and collaborate toward a final performance piece — deepening their relationship with dance as both creators and artists.

Whether your goal is to perform, choreograph, or simply understand dance more fully, Movement Makers gives you the tools to do all three.
