Looking to maximize your training this August?
Manhattan Youth Ballet’s summer intensive will prepare you to return to your year-round program
and give you that extra edge!
Manhattan Youth Ballet offers a comprehensive summer intensive for serious dancers, ages 8 and older. Modeled after the great schools of Europe, MYB’s Summer Intensive focuses on clean, classical ballet technique and performance artistry. All classes and performances take place in our state-of-the-art dance facilities at Manhattan Movement & Arts Center (mmac).
Manhattan Youth Ballet’s Summer Intensive is designed to polish individuals’ technique through daily technique classes and further develop each dancer’s artistry through repertoire and rehearsals. Every level will receive daily technique and pointe (pre-pointe for younger students) classes as well as Pilates conditioning at least once a week. More advanced levels will have supplemental classes such as character, contemporary and pas de deux. Dedicated Mens class will be offered 3-5 times a week. Students enrolled for the full three-week performance program will have afternoon repertoire each day in preparation for the final performance in the theater at mmac.
Manhattan Youth Ballet’s Summer Intensive faculty is comprised of MYB’s year-round faculty and guest teachers from Paris Opera Ballet, Kirov Ballet, New York City Ballet, San Francisco Ballet and American Ballet Theatre.
Students will have the opportunity to audition for the School at Manhattan Youth Ballet during the summer intensive. Advanced students may also audition for company positions with Manhattan Youth Ballet.
