DanceForce  (Monday-Saturday, July 29-August 3)

THEME: Dancer’s Tool Kit

DanceForce is a rigorous, comprehensive training program for dance students, professional aspirants, and early-career dancers (ages 15-25). Programming includes classes in a variety of dance techniques, DanceWorks Chicago repertory, mentorship sessions, artistic coaching, specialty seminars, and tell-it-like-it-is professional development sessions.

From Dance360 Summer 2023 Dancers:

The level of attention to the genuine connection between dancers, teachers, and company members was so beneficial and made for such a safe environment to grow as a dancer.

 

So much healing, love, and beautiful rebirth energy these past summer weeks. Thank you, DanceWorks Chicago, for helping me find myself again.

 

The reflection and seminar portion of the intensive quickly became one of the most valuable parts of the intensive for me because I didn’t realize how much I really needed to take a step back and reflect.

Faculty features DWC Artistic Director Julie Nakagawa, Dance360 Program Director Sara Bibik, current and former DWC dancers, and MORE!

Combine with the ChoreoLab week to take your DanceForce experience to the next level!
