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.

The workshop is highly adaptable to each dancer. Those preparing their own classical variations, contemporary solos, or competition choreography can bring their material and receive repeated coaching and rehearsal throughout the week. Dancers without prepared repertoire are equally welcome and will be taught classical and contemporary variations to learn, practice, and perform.
