Variations
Workshop
Discover the Repertoire | December 26 - 30, 2026
The Winter Variations Workshop is a five-day mini-intensive designed for dancers who want to keep training during the holiday break while diving into classical and contemporary repertoire. This is a rare opportunity to keep dancing over the holidays, stay in shape to prepare for auditions or competitions, and receive detailed coaching in a fun, challenging studio environment.
Program Information
Led by Academy directors Abby Jayne DeAngelo and Guillaume Basso — recently honored with platinum recognition for his contemporary choreography at the 2024 Universal Ballet Competition and the 2024 World Ballet Art Competition Best Teachers Award — we combine contemporary variations to our classical repertoire focus, providing a unique blend of training to enhance versatility as a performer. This workshop offers a comprehensive curriculum designed to keep dancers in peak form over the holiday break, prepare for competition season, and get ready for summer intensive & company auditions in the new year.
