Featuring teachers from MYB's Year-round faculty as well as guests from New York City Ballet, American Ballet Theater and many more companies throughout the country, The Manhattan Youth Ballet Summer Intensive is held every year during the month of August. This year the intensive will be 3 weeks leading up to the start of the Year-Round program. Our focus is to provide a program that allows those who are accepted to stay in prime dancing shape, continue to improve what they have learned at other June/July Intensives as well as the opportunity to work with some of the NYC dance community's brightest stars all within a nurturing, energetic environment.

​

Over the three weeks, students take daily technique classes from our year-round faculty as well as many special guests. These technique classes are followed by pointe classes, variations classes, men's classes, character, pilates, contemporary, jazz and modern. The day finishes with a 90 minute choreography session for 3-Week students where Summer Faculty Members choreograph pieces for each level as well as work on classical and Balanchine repertory. The intensive culminates in a performance in MYB's Home
