The best part is that you get to choose a live or virtual format! Levels for teens (ages 13-16); advanced/professionals (ages 17+); and professionals (ages 21+).

Looking Back on #BDSI2019

This summer, 106 dancers joined the company in the beautiful studios of Chapman University for three incredible weeks of growth and discovery. Twenty-two faculty members, including the notable Ido Tadmor (Tel Aviv, Israel), Adrian Hoffman (Whim W’him), and I-Ling Liu (Bill T. Jones/Arnie Zane Co.), shared their knowledge by providing 165 hours of unique classes focused on furthering technique and creative development.
