SUMMER DANCE
of
2024
IBA's Summer of Dance is the perfect place to dance throughout the summer. Our Summer Intensive is specifically designed for professional dancers to elevate their dance training and technique. At the same time, our Summer Program and Children's Dance Camps provide young artists with a nurturing environment to explore the art of dance at their own pace.
The International Ballet Academy is where young artists, and those young at heart, take their first class or find new heights for their technique. Make our Academy your home to discover how dance can change your life and find your inner artist.
Regular curriculum classes are available for dancers who want extra flexibility during the summer months.
SUMMER
INTENSIVE
Ages 10 to Adult
Summer Intensives are designed to provide expert training through unique instruction under our Academy's distinguished faculty. Through class instruction, end-of-session conferences with the Artistic Director and Assistant Artistic Director, and private instruction with IBA faculty, dancers develop a rock-solid foundation from which to build their technique. Our rigorous ballet training program is based on the Vaganova method, while non-ballet dance classes elevate a student's technique to new heights.
Classes are specifically designed to focus on precision of technique, increasing strength, and greater musicality and artistry. This program is essential for dancers preparing for a professional career.
Audition is required for placement.
Current IBA Students are required to audition. (Not Pre-PD and PD)
